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 KingdomAlice, let me know that there had been gasworks outside for a while. Unfortunately, this left a very muddy place to park on the weekend I was there. Not the owner’s fault, but a slight issue when loading and unloading the car (as a solo traveller).
Self-contained, spacious (travelling solo), and peaceful. Alice had thoughtfully prepared mini mince pies that were in the kitchen when I arrived (just days after Christmas) as well as some milk, butter and hot drinks capsules. Oh, and an honesty box/mini bar outside in the porch. Convenient and nicely designed facilities and a very comfortable bed. I was there for a mix of work and leisure, and needed space and silence to focus. With the forest on the doorstep, a few good pubs in walking distance, and a supermarket a short drive away, this was perfect.

United KingdomIt’s open plan. I had a Teams meeting to attend and no privacy was a bit of an issue. My partner and I managed to work around it and I am only mentioning this in the interest of keeping travellers informed, rather than as a criticism. Note to self: cancel all meetings during our next visit. :)
The Beehive is located right next door to the Forest of Dean, with numerous public paths to explore and enjoy. It was spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable bed, a kitchen with everything needed. We loved how quiet it was and Alice welcomed us with a delicious cake waiting for us - a nice touch! I must mention the cleanliness again, which I’m very particular about - if I could give 20 out of 10 on cleanliness, I would: simply second to none. The Beehive was a fantastic base for exploring the great outdoors and it offered everything we needed, and more. The attention to detail was outstanding - the well thought out interior and decoration, the thorough and informative instructions for the tv and for entering the property, the suggestions pack, the fire safety - you could tell that Alice and Rob have put so much thought and effort into it all. Thank you, Alice! Planning our next visit to The Beehive!

Very homely The code to get in went to my junk folder - not anyone's fault but if you're staying here I'd keep an eye on your junk emails. The hosts came down and let us in, so us not receiving this caused us no inconvenience. Just a little bit of advice for those booking

United KingdomThe only thing we didn't like personally was having to park on the road. And the fact it was situated in the middle of a housing estate.
The property was well presented. Immaculate and had all the creature comforts. It was warm cosy and a home from home. The owners had thought of everything. It was a home from home.
