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.).

Enjoyed the facilities - comfortable. Parking, communication & early access

United KingdomLiterally the only thing I would note for guests is that the slatted blinds mean that sun light gets into the bedroom so if this bothers you bring an eye mask (I am a light sleeper).
Really lovely, spacious (much more than it looks), clean and stylish apartment in a quiet location with great access to the beautiful town of Dawlish, just a 10 minute walk downhill to the beginning of the shops and restaurants. The apartment is well kitted with a comfortable sofa bed, all the kitchen bits you need and a lovely double ensuite room. Host Lynne is very welcoming and helpful. We are four adults so we thought it might be an uncomfortable tight squeeze but there was more than enough room for us to stay comfortably for two nights and we enjoyed spending time there, choosing to stay in to watch the Euros rather than go to the pub! Lots of plug sockets and even a freestanding bath tub in the ensuite.

United KingdomThe location was hilly and although it didn't impact that much on our visit, as we drove each day down to the town centre and parked on the municipal carpark the cost of which was not excessive, I make this point purely from the perspective that I had a problem with my knee.
The property was spot on and was certainly provided us with what we required for a very good short break. The greeting on our arrival was fabulous and having a parking spot directly outside was another additional bonus. We would certainly return to the property if available for any future visits to Dawlish.

United KingdomThe only fault was that we didn’t book for long enough….
Adorable little apartment, spotlessly clean and suitably equipped for our needs and the parking space was a bonus, really couldn’t fault it. The property is at the edge of town in an idyllic quiet location and a mere 15 minute walk to the beach. Our hosts Lynne & David went above and beyond in making sure our stay was all we hoped it to be ! Can highly recommend this property. Will be returning later in the year for a longer period.

Lovely quiet area of town. Little Weech is such good value & very comfortable. You are supplied with everything you need for your vacation. Short walk into the centre & a lovely friendly pub The Swan just down the road. Will definitely stay here again.
