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 KingdomThere wasn't anything I didn't like really! The parking isn't onsite - but there is a lot of parking locally and you can unload by the house, so that's not an issue. I wouldn't expect any town centre houses in Bury to have parking either.
The cottage is very well located and quite charming. Very well presented and a lot of thought has gone into it. You are in very easy walking distance of the town centre too - and if you know Bury, it's a lovely town with a lot to do.

This is a beautiful cottage ,perfectly located in the centre of Bury St Edmunds. The host had prepared the house well for us; the beds were super comfortable and there were soft towels and lots of hot water. It was a lovely touch to find milk in the fridge and tea, coffee, cereal, chocolate, cookies and nuts for us. We were also able to find free parking for the weekend just round the corner on Friar’s Lane. 10 Bridewell is a wonderful find!

United Kingdomthe cottage itself was lovely but just be aware that the proximity to the town and local pubs means that it can be quite noisy as people leave the pubs in the later part of the evening. Bring ear plugs just in case if you like to go to bed reasonably early.
Lovely listed cottage in a super location right in the town, so no need to worry about easy access to shops, local cafes and restaurants and so on. We only ate breakfast in the cottage but all the facilities were there had we wanted to cook.

United KingdomYou can't eat breakfast inside of your are 4 people there is only a table for two due to the size of the cottage. It is very small, and low celings going upstairs, a few bumped heads.
The bedrooms are a large and very comfy beds. The cafetiere was missing and the owner came with one very quickly, much appreciated! Love the outdoor space and location for town is perfect. Not at all noisy at night. We had a great weekend.

Most convenient location. Friendly helpful owner. No parking nearby, apart from the expensive parking space next door, but that's no fault of the owner. Would stay there again. Recommended!

United KingdomVery saddened to say cleanliness was not great. The kitchen worktops were sticky, some cooking dishes and saucepans were not clean and we found a dirty sock on the settee. Despite this we would definitely stay again but this did disappoint us and we hope can be improved. One other small improvement would be a bigger table in the living room to sit 4, perhaps one that can be folded out if needed.
The cottage is beautiful and very tastefully furnished and we loved the character. Despite being so central it is very quiet. The location is outstanding - central for shopping, restaurants, the Abbey Gardens and Cathedral. The beds are oh so comfortable. We've not had such a good night's sleep in ages. Thebathroom and kitchen are very well equipped. We liked the little treats left.
