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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

United KingdomWe had a slight issue in that the hot water did not come through the sink tap until after we had run the shower - we didn’t know this until later so my elderly mothers room had only slightly off cold water (she did not try the shower) - but for an overnight stay it was not a major issue. I would also suggest having an information sheet regarding the heating just to know what to turn the radiator dials to in case required
Great location & lovely rooms, very spacious and good facilities included - fantastic use of the space! Would recommend & be happy to use again. Close to a lovely cafe for breakfast as well (Puffers)

United KingdomThe only issue to raise was that this is the accommodation that you can hire if you have pets - which we didn't have a problem with - but a previous stay's pet had obviously pee'd in the accommodation because the smell was overpowering when we opened the room. Having said that we contacted the host and within minutes someone arrived to try to remedy the situation and the cleaners did an extra clean the next morning but the carpet is obviously needing a full clean. This would not stop us booking the accommodation with this host again because he obviously responds when issues are raised.
Travelled with another couple for a 2night stay in Irvine and we had 2 out of the 3 available cottage rooms. Great accommodation with easy parking and access. Sits at the back of a house with rooms to let from the same host. Lovely, recently refurbed accommodation with a great small sitting area outside each of the rooms. Rooms have a fridge or wine fridge for keeping drinks cool which is a great addition. Bathroom has a roomy shower - which had good pressure.

United KingdomSmall bug bear. Next doors dog entered our studio a couple of times and was barking the next morning or when we walked past. Not the biggest fan of pets allowed properties, although I will say, this one is pretty newly done by the looks of it and had no evidence of previous canine tenants so was no issue this time.
Great location along harbour side. large room and large TV, room was very comfortable and well laid out. plenty of space and storage for what we needed. particularly liked the small patio area. all in all a good stay and would deffo return.

United KingdomIm not keen on Nescafe instant coffee so i didn't bother with the tea and coffee.
Rooms were spacious, bed was very comfortable, location was great for parking, just anywhere you can find because there are no parking restrictions. Having the mini fridge in the room was great for keeping my drinks cold.

United KingdomThe only disadvantage was that you could hear the underground late in the night and early in the morning and the street was a bit noisy sometimes.
Very good localization, only 1 minute to the underground. The facilities were very good with comfortable beds. Highlight the outstanding service provided and communication. All the information was very detailed, clear and very helpful.

United KingdomIt was quiet - after a stressful day - We had sold our home and the solicitor booked us in as it was pet friendly - and there had been a hiccup getting the keys of our new property. An ideal location and really enjoyed the early morning walk along the harbour.

United KingdomThe only issue we encountered was that we decided to enjoy some drinks (mini bar fridge) this fridge is not working at all; our drinks were still warm in the morning. The light on the left hand of the bed was not functioning but this was not an issue.
The location is really great with easy access to main shops / food outlets and pubs. Nice access to the promenade and good walks to the beach and surrounds.

IrelandThe floor was creaky
It was vey handy to have the studio which made the stay very private. The size of the room was big enough and everything seemed new and very clean. Also the from of the studio had a small table with couple of chairs to get some fresh air if you would like to. The location is very good next to lrvine waterside walk and just about a lovely walk to the beach park ( which is amazing). The place is dog friendly so our dog had enough space to sleep since the room was quite big.
