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 KingdomAbsolutely nothing at all! The only thing we felt was missing was a cloth for wiping down the surfaces (as we are tidy people) and maybe some kitchen roll. Otherwise it was perfect!
We loved the location, it was so remote and perfect for a getaway. The Hideaway had literally everything that you could have needed for a stay away and the guide sheets were so helpful so we knew how to work everything. All the little details made such a difference to our stay.

United KingdomIt was very hard to keep the property cool whilst also still secure for sleeping but understandable given the amount of glass. Perhaps had we stayed the second night we could have spent the day cooling it more but from afternoon arrival it was hard to get the temperature below 24 degrees inside.
The ability to order local hampers, the views, the decor, things to do on the doorstep, the privacy, the wagons for carrying our stuff!

So many things!! The location was peaceful and idyllic. The accommodation was as well thought out, homely, with high spec appliances and beautifully crafted homeware. Very clean. A huge beautiful and modern shower. A comfy and cosy bed which we slept so well in. A lovely picnic bench outside surrounded by wild flowers and a beach within 2 min walking distance. All whilst being very peaceful and remote. Loved it. We will be back

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing not to love about this place.
Stunning views to the sea from the huge glass windows, tastefully furnished with everything we needed for our 3 night stay including a great gas BBQ. Quiet and peaceful and a great place for wildlife spotting. We saw deer twice as well as rabbits and plenty of birds. It was also on the bus route for St Andrews which meant we could leave our motorhome parked up and enjoy a few drinks with our meals out.

GermanyI understand the concept is to be off-grid but at least some power outlets for phone charging would be good in the bedroom. We found a single plug socket in the house (under the dining table).

United KingdomThe sofas were a little firm difficult to lay on comfortably, which you wanted to do to enjoy wildlife in surrounding area.
The location was great, the facilities exceeded expectations, the eco and sustainability living has made us revisit our own environmental footprint. The teepee was excellent fun evening enjoyed toasting marshmallows. What a great experience sharing the area with hares and roe deer would definitely recommend for couples or families. Don’t forgot there is a beach as well to explore.

We loved everything about this cosy little cabin. It's a beautifully conceived and well thought out eco-friendly retreat - back to nature in comfort & style! Couldn't have asked for more, thoroughly enjoyed our stay & really didn't want to leave. Also set in a fantastic location, with a super cafe which has very friendly staff.
