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.).

United KingdomThe toilet needed a jiggle to get the water to stop trickling, the seat on the toilet needed fixing properly also. there was one roll of toilet paper only but better than none at all. the smell of musty when we entered was off putting but with windows open a while it was better. realized there was a problem with maybe the shower drain letting in smelly gases(the the sink). kitchen well stocked
we liked the room and the surroundings very much and it had everything we needed. Nice clean shower kitchen and comfortable beds.

United KingdomCar park quite a long way from chalet and so it was difficult for unloading and getting luggage to and from car. Chalet not accessible for those with mobility problems. . Chalet Interior was very dated, tired ,worn and patched up, apart from the bathroom. Rooms a bit small and cramped and double bed had one side up against the wall so, it was difficult for one person to get in and out of bed.
Quiet and calm spot on the site. Wild bunny rabbits on lawn. 20 minute walk to beach.

United KingdomVery disappointed with the chalet, the living room and kitchen were like something out of the 70s, dull and badly in need of updating, no WiFi and the smallest TV I have ever seen, overpriced for the facilities, my brother and sister both stayed on the same site and there chalets were far superior for less money.
Location was okay.

United KingdomPretty much everything else. We were met with a massive itinerary, to which some items were missing. I started going through it, but this was time consuming and after a while decided that this was not what I was on holiday for. Initial things missing included a wine glass, 2 bath sheets, a torch, 1 bread knife and a garden chair. This list however is not exhaustive and I wasn't going to spend too much time searching for things. The living space and kitchen looked very tired and in desperate need of renovation. cabinets were held together with screws and surfaces peeling The doors on said cabinets did not fit well and had to be coaxed to close. The kitchen had a carpeted floor and in the living area, mats appeared to be stuck down. The sofa and chair had a 'throw' over them, for reason we found later that they had been terribly and poorly recovered from different materials. Sitting on the sofa/chair pulled down the throw. The chalets drop leaf table was broken and unusable due to a vital missing piece. Utensils were very cheap and poor, and the cooker looked old and tired although it worked, unlike two of the spot lights in the kitchen. I know this could be a good property but needs serious attention. chalet decor was poor with peeling wallpaper. For all of this, I resented paying a £200 breakage deposit. Incidentally, we neither damaged, broke, lost or stole anything.
The Shower room was excellent, room and looked like it was fairly new. The mattress on the double bed on which we slept was very good, affording a good nights sleep. The property as a whole was clean. It smelled good on entering ( though after the air freshener had worn off smelled awful). The chalet had an excellent range of pans and plenty of coat hangers which is always good.
