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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomThe only thing I would've liked in the flat would be a blanket/throw in the living room.
This was a very last minute booking after I was let down by another booking at another property. Turns out that everything does indeed happen for a reason as this place ended up being wonderful and giving me and my 2 kids a wonderful mini holiday. Great location and lovely, cosy basement flat which felt like home straight away. Really hope to come back again soon whilst on the hunt for our own home in Ayr.

United KingdomNothing to dislike, the only thing that was a slight issue for us was the heavy rain meant the tile steps down to the front door were very slippery.
Loved everything, cozy, comfortable, clean, perfect for our quiet birthday mini-break. Comfiest beds we have slept in at holiday accommodation ever. 2 mins to town, 2 mins to beach, and the rainfall shower was an unexpected bonus! It's also much bigger inside than you'd think, and really luxurious like a posh hotel ,we loved the place and would recommend to friends and stay again.

United KingdomSteps leading down to property could do with a little cleaning up and getting key out the security box a bit fiddly. Beds not super comfy but did the job. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
Lovely cosy place for a short stay. Liked small garden area and big kitchen. Nicely decorated and characterful property. Would stay again.

United KingdomNothing at all.
EVERYTHING! The communication with the owners was quick and informative. The accommodation was as described. The location is perfect for the beach (5 min walk) and visiting the town and shops (1 min). The place is very secure and easy to access, as long as you can manage steps. The rooms were all large and very well equipped, you don't need to take anything with you as its all there. The apartment is warm and well lit. The beds are big and very comfortable with lovely bed linen and towels. You won't be disappointed if you stay here. Definitely recommend it
