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 StatesAn en-suite bathroom would have been preferable, rather than having to go on the landing to access our bathroom.....just a little odd.
Nice rooms & very clean & well presented.

United KingdomIt was really unclean. The floor was disgusting, I don’t think under the bed has ever been cleaned and it’s thick with dust and hair and all sorts of rubbish. There were also maltesers dropped on the floor which our dog found as soon as we arrived - we were lucky to notice before racking up a huge vet bill with a poisoned dog ! The shower was also very slow to drain and clearly had a backlog of hair/soap down the plug hole from previous guests.
It was a great location for the wedding we were attending and we were pleased it was dog friendly and had parking. It was reasonably well-equipped for what we needed.

United Kingdom50% of Kitchen area lightbulbs blown. The shower needs a once over with so mould and mildew remover. I suspect that guests just don’t turn the extract on. Shower gel dispensers etc were all empty. Milk sachets were off.
Great easy self check in. Perfect overnighter en route to Scotland. One big family friendly room / kitchen. Pub just down the road is a 3 min walk and really friendly.

EstoniaNot clean at all, lots of dust, remote broken, looked dated, carpets unvacuumed. We had a private bathroom but it was not en suite. Lots of crap underneath the bed- socks, old deodorant etc etc. Our 2 y.o looks everywhere so thats how we found out. So I rather think its a Hostel for younger travellers who dont care much for cleanliness. Not that suitable for a family with a small child. That place needs a proper cleaning. I dont mind simple interior but cleanliness is a must. Seems to be a problem in many privatly owned accommodations in the UK. So now more hesitant to book them unfortunately.
Very nice and quiet location. Lots of sightseeing possibiities. Penrith just a short drive away where You have shops, restaurants etc. Owner Chris sent lots of good information before arrival. Easy to find. Beddings didnt smell like a chemistry fabric like at most privatly owned accommodations. Spacious house. Had a dining table downstairs but no kitchen corner. Or we just didnt have access to it.

United KingdomThere was a problem with the bathroom but the hosts were unaware of it. We also forgot to take some kitchen essentials. Unfortunately they weren't at the accommodation either.
Very happy with our brief stay at Rebel's Hide. Ideally located (for our visit) just outside Penrith in a quiet residential area. It surpassed our expectations and we were very happy with our stay. Good communication and instruction from the hosts. The best recommendation I can give is that we would be happy to stay there again. Many thanks 🙂

United KingdomThe third bed being under the other single. To be able to sleep a more socially acceptable distance away, I slept on the mattress on the floor by the sofa as the pullout bed was claustrophobically close to the other two. I appreciate it is probably meant for a child than for adult use.
Sweet little studio flat. Well furnished. Very convenient distance from Shap where overnight event occuring. Self service check in useful.

United KingdomUnfortunately the confirmation email of our booking had not address or telephone number of the property on it we wanted to ring them to say we would be about an hour late, Spent a good half hour trying to find the location after a long day traveling even the bar code thing didn't work! I don't know if this was booking.com problem or the owners, got the phone number from one of the other apartment residents when we arrived and managed to phone to get details as to where our apartment was. also wanted to ring them before arriving to say we would be about an hour late
Plenty of room to get around the room, didn't feel cramped, nicely furnished
