Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

The location was great - really nice and quiet but close to the centre. There were instructions on how to operate everything in the house, but also interesting info about the history of the property and the art/furnishings. The property itself was just SO cosy and homely. Perfect!

United KingdomIt would be churlish to try to find anything wrong.
The house is beautifully presented and more like entering someone's cherished home than a holiday let. There are multiple interesting artefacts and pictures and Mike explains the origins of many in his interesting folder. Comfortable furniture and bed make for relaxing time in a nice quiet street. Really handy for walking into town and good eateries. It was immaculately clean throughout and some nice "essentials" in the fridge was a nice touch. And, where else is there a decanter of scotch tucked away in the beautiful little sitting room cum library upstairs. The secluded garden would be a great boon in good weather. This place is a magical find and it would be difficult to find a cosier little cottage in mid city than this. It's exceptionally well equipped and we wish we'd been staying longer than three nights.

United KingdomNothing.
The location of Mike's property was perfect for us - the narrow street had terraced houses on both sides, but it was really quiet, which is what we both prefer. It was only around ten minutes walk into the city, so didn't need to use our car which we left parked in one of the designated roads (with a permit helpfully supplied by Mike). The shopping in the city is great, with lots of my favourite clothes shops to hand - it's been a long time since we've seen such a busy bustling high street! Shame the Cathedral was closed for graduation ceremonies all week, as I was looking forward to seeing Jane Austen's burial memorial, but it gives us an excuse to go back!

United KingdomThere is nothing not to like.
We have just come back from a fabulous weekend visit to Winchester and Hang Your Hat was the PERFECT place to stay! The cottage is exceptional. Beautifully clean and well equipped with high end decor and appliances. It’s a very quirky cottage with the most interesting features. The host, Mike (who we met) was extremely helpful and friendly. Communication with Mike was excellent. We were so comfortable in this beautiful cottage that we didn’t want to leave so we hardly saw much of Winchester at all! We would love to return someday and will be highly recommending it to our friends.

United KingdomUnfortunately the steamer in the shower had an error code, which was out of order for our trip there which is currently getting repaired soon these things happen. But other than that we had a fantastic stay and will definitely come back again.
Bed was very comfortable and everything about it I will say 10/10 if not more. Definitely recommend staying here.
