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.).

AustraliaHeating not working in the bedroom.
We loved our stay here.Zoe was a lovely host who did her utmost to make our stay comfortable.The heating downstairs was not working so it made the bedroom area very cold but Zoe did apologise for it.We were able to make our own breakfast and also microwave a couple of meals.The area was very beautiful and the barn was amazing.

United KingdomWe would suggest that visitors take large bottles of water with them as the only water supply is downstairs in the ensuite and the kitchenette has no sink or drainage facilities. We didn't know this when booking. As pensioners it was hard work going up and down the stairs to the little washbasin. A plastic washing up bowl was upstairs with the kettle and microwave. We feel the price reflected this issue.
The location was fantastic for all the places we wanted to visit !! So much so that we saw even more than we had planned ! It was peaceful and clean with ample free parking. Great value for money.

United KingdomWe used Plain Street Cottage as a base whilst walking on the South West Coastal Path. It was ideally situated near to Port Isaac so that we could park there each day. If we had wanted to use the bus it was also directly on the 56 route which runs between Newquay and Port Isaac. The cottage was very homely and had all of the amenities that we required. Whilst we didn't meet Zoe she gave very clear and timely instructions on how to find the property.

United KingdomThe location was just off the main road which meant that it was easy to travel anywhere. The views from the property were stunning. The accommodation itself was lovely. It was clean and had heating if we needed it . Breakfast wasn’t provided but it was easy to make toast, cereal etc or anything that could be cooked in a microwave, so it was perfect for us. Washing up was tricky in the bathroom sink but Zoe the owner took used crockery to wash and replaced with clean. We didn’t see Zoe during our stay but she kept in touch via messages which was nice.

United StatesSince there’s always room for improvement, breakfast could have been even more better if some fruits came with it.
The breakfast was good— a warm sandwich packed with egg and sausage, and served with a smile😊. Milk was provided as soon as we arrived, and coffee and tea lies abundant in the house. There was no need to buy bottled water, we learned that Cornwall tap is of high, and strictest quality, and also tastes good to drink.

United StatesOnly drawback was that I was traveling with a friend, and she had to sleep on the foldout bed. The host was great about bringing linens, but it wasn’t as comfortable as the bed downstairs.
Cute place! It was fun to see all the cows in the mornings. Nice quiet location not far from Port Isaac. Host was excellent and checked on us when we arrived.

United KingdomThe barn was clean and spacious. Great facilities for being self contained - full size fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle and coffee machine, TV, games, books. Zoe (the host) can even provide breakfast/s at a small charge). The location is excellent for trips to - Port Isaac, Polzeath - 5 minutes Wadebridge - 10 minutes Padstow, 7 bays - 25 minutes Tintagel, Bodmin- 25 minutes Really quiet and remote(ish) location that has 2x local farm shops/cafes near by. Zoe, was an attentive, knowledgeable and warm host - nothing too much bother. Thank you so much🙂... We had a comfortable, relaxing and great holiday. Great place to stay. Meleney
