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 KingdomNothing really, everything was perfect.
The property was just so beautiful, wonderful views of the harbour from both the 1st and 2nd floors. A stones throw from the harbour, all of the restaurants, pubs and shops. Brixham was just unspoilt and perfect for a weekend break or holiday. Friendly locals and the charity Santa run made the weekend.

United KingdomWe don’t think it had been fully cleaned prior to our stay as we found a random sock on the stairs on our arrival. However this is a minor aspect in what was a really lovely weekend.
The property was perfectly situated right by the harbour and although the directions explained that the road to the property was very narrow that was a rather nerve wracking attempt to park in front of the property (and we do not have a large vehicle) and I would recommend suggesting parking in the short stay a short walk rather than attempting to park outside to unload. However it was a really lovely cottage with all the mod cons and we had an enjoyable stay and look forward to returning.

United KingdomPotential visitors should be aware that the road leading to the cottage is extremely narrow. There is a turning point, but another car came up behind me and I did experience problems due to the ‘congestion’!
The location was great and the cottage was comfortable! Good communication with the agency too!

United KingdomNothing. I was a little anxious about dropping off my luggage, dog, his luggage when I arrived because of the narrow street and turning space. I parked in Central and walked up which was fine it is a 3 min walk. But having gained confidence I drove up to load up and leave. I have a big estate car. It was fine. I put in my wing mirrors for the narrow stretch and went slowly. The turning space was plenty big enough and my car is quite long.
Superb location, close to the harbour, bars, restaurants and shops. walking distance to beaches. The cottage is on 3 floors. It is very well equipped and furnished. The garden is a sun trap . Sarah was very helpful on every question I asked and went out of her way to make sure I had what I needed. The parking permit is fantastic. You cannot park at the property so having the option to park anywhere in the area is brilliant.

United KingdomFreshwater car park took some finding as there were road works & diversions. Up to date information on this would have helped.
Great location, lovely views, well equipped, small garden at the back, close to town & restaurants. Favourite restaurant was Shoals, 20 min walk but worth it. Good to have a parking permit & managed to unload & turn in the turning area as we have a small car. Enjoyed walk to Berry Head, visited Dartmouth via ferry & Coleton Fishacre - Art Deco National Trust House with lovely gardens.

United KingdomLovely cottage, but it lacked a few things like heat mats for the wooden table, some utensils like pizza cutter not supplied. Also, for the older generation, a folder on how washing machine /oven works, and recommended places to visit etc . I was told dishwasher tablets would be supplied (which were not), and the washing up liquid was virtually empty. I had to stand it upside down to get the last drops out. Although not stated, there was hand soap in both bathrooms, but when used, it had been watered down so much it wasn't usable. Better to remove than leave it like that. Unfortunately, I found a used and bloodied piece of toilet paper by the side of the bed tables on the floor, yuck!! Would be nice to have a place to hang up the door key, too, when inside the property . Although these are trivial things , it shows you give that little extra care and thought.
