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 KingdomI would have rated it excellent except for a few minor things. Shower makes an incredible noise when in use, possible air lock? The silicone around the tray showing mould and tiles missing grout at fireplace.
Location, 5 min walk to centre. Basic facilities but everything functional. Good value for money and pet friendly, we had 2 dogs with us. Mix up with the key box code but fixed quickly with a phone call.

United KingdomA slight issue was the hot water in the bath although we managed in the end - it took a while to run - both my husband and I hate showers! The bedrooms were a little dark for putting on make up and no dressing table, the cottage is probably used more by golfers and this wouldn't really be a problem!!
Location superb. Very well equipped kitchen. Very warm

United KingdomParties going on around due to prominent student area. But bearable. Extra cost for small dog not overly clear and felt unnecessary. £20 - dog friendly usually just means that. I only noticed this charge on check in.

United KingdomActually the key box wasnt working so we had to have someone help us access it but they were very helpful. Main problem was the fact its in a student area and we were kept awake till 1am on the first night with a party in the street across the road which was a real pain.
Location was great for walking to the beach as parking is a nightmare at east sands. Even my 6 and 8 year olds didn't complain. Really close to the centre and could walk to get ice cream in the evening. House was lovely and beds very comfy.

United StatesWindow in downstairs bathroom didn't close and it was pretty chilly when we were there-so no shower for me. Bath tub upstairs was nice. Closet door in double bed room-the doors didn't slide-had jumped off rails. It would be very nice if a mirror was hung outside the upstairs bathroom for drying hair. Very close to plug there.
Location was great-had to park on the street but it was a wider area than a normal street in St. Andrews. Very comfortable sitting room. Washer with dryer was available. Bedrooms a little small but bed was comfy.

United KingdomIf I was to be in any way negative I suppose the only shower being downstairs was nit ideal and the shower itself was a little temperamental.
Great location near the centre of St Andrews. All the facilities you need for a stay in St Andrews. Great alternative to staying in the pricy hotels in the area.
