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 KingdomCould not open the windows in the conservatory. Chair in dinning room broken and the others were loose. Same patches of damp on the wall by the fridge and behind the bin. Radiator in the living room behind the radiator cover was dirty and we could not get it to work. Outside washing line was rusted and lying in the outside drain
Great location, comfortable furnishings home away from home. Lovely gift basket …. Wine, scone with clotted cream and jam ….. really Cornish experience. Kitchen fully stocked Great water pressure in the shower Lovely clean and comfortable beds Overall great design.

United Kingdom°Parking was a bit awkward. °The only thing I could recommend is leaving should be 11am not 10am. By the time you've woken had breakfast, had a wash packed plus leaving the house as expected it felt like a bit of a rush, not the best vibe to end the holiday.
The whole house was kitted out perfectly, beds were so comfortable, fittings, fixtures and decor were spot on, really felt like a fisherman's cottage so the overall experience was exactly how we were hoping, We had everything we needed and more plus a very sweet welcome pack. The location is also very beautiful, 8 mins walk into the main part of the village and literally 2 mins and you are on the beach. We had a beautiful experience and we will definitely be booking the place again for our own pleasure.

United KingdomA little on the expensive side for the size and style of property but I suspect this is just the nature of the area. Heating was hard to moderate so we found we were either very cold or far too hot
V cute cottage, perfect for family of four. Welcome pack with cream tea and wine was a lovely touch. Cottage was just the right size for a family of four.

United KingdomOnly one of the storage heaters was working and despite calling sykes cottages no-one came to repair. Also due to wind and rain water was coming through upstairs windows.
Lovely comfy beds, bedding and towels were top quality. Shower...best ever. Nice to have a welcome pack too.

United Kingdomone of the storage heaters downstairs did not work, so was quite cold on the evenings. It was advertised as having parking, but it was just street parking on the road behind. the key lock box is broken, as it will open no matter what code you put in (thought I’d mention as a security problem for the owners).
Great walking distance to the town. A lot of charm to it.

United KingdomSome of the furniture could have been more comfortable, i.e the mattress on the double bed had a topper which was way too soft for my back and the sofa was flat and uncomfortable. However the house was warm and cosy.
The location was excellent, so close to the sea that we could hear it when we were in bed, and only a short walk to the shops, restaurants and pubs in the village. Lovely surprise to have a welcome pack left for us. The house was well equipped and felt like a home from home. Great to have Sky channels. The kitchen area had both a dishwasher and a washer drier which both came in useful. Out the front of the property was a little table and two chairs which were in a great position to enjoy the sunshine and seaview.
