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 KingdomIt was bigger than we expected, the rooms were so clean and comfy and the location was amazing. When you walked out the front door the harbour was right there with lots of cute shops and food places. The host was so lovely and welcoming, she was very easy to contact. It was very handy the car park being next door.

United KingdomThe flat was a bit small for our party (4 adults and one toddler) however we had to find accommodation last minute as the one we had previously booked was cancelled at the last minute. It would be perfect for 2 adults and 2 children. Also dog friendly!
Location was great, very central and apartment was very clean. The host was very accommodating and provided a cot bed with linen for my son which is unusual as you usually have to provide your own.

United KingdomIt was clear the host (who was lovely) had tried super hard to make this homely for visitors. Unfortunately however, it was all a little bit depressing. There was blue vinyl hospital style flooring in much of the building, with bins and various cleaning items stored in the stairwells. The kitchen was oddly located in the entrance as you enter the flat and laid out in an impractical way so as to be a nuisance when preparing food and washing up. Whilst everything was there, and had been thought through, it was clunky and difficult to use so we ate out a lot. There was evidently a lack of attention to cleaning detail, thick grime on the fire blanket, cobwebs at anything above eye level and dubious hairs from multiple sources all over the place, which did not belong to us. Including on the towels,which were shedding behind belief, so much that they left down all over the bathroom surfaces after only a couple of days (a half cup of vinegar in the softener drawer would help prevent this). Finally, perhaps unfortunately because completely out of her control, we were woken every morning at dawn by the 100s of seagulls squawking their heads off and at night the bell on the church chimed until midnight.
The location is excellent, with stunning views of the harbour from 1 bedroom and direct views of the church in the other. It is very central to everything you want to visit in Ilfracombe. The main lounge was nicely decorated and enjoyable enough for a conversation in the evening, but rather small for dining. There were some lovely lamps in all rooms. The host was lovely and communicative.

United KingdomThere was a lot of dog hair in the apartment. I know they are dog friendly but could of been cleaner. The rug in the longe especially bad. The neighbours were very noisy. We had two young kids and on one night one the guest above us went out and clearly left their dog on it’s own and was constantly barking till gone 10pm. Stopping our kids from going to sleep. The guest opposite had their TV on loud every day as well.
The view was very good. The apartment is well stocked with cleaning products and kitchen utensils.
