Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe wifi tended to drop out in the far side of the bedroom, this was not a major issue, everything else was absolutely amazing.
Our host Anne send excellent directions before our arrival and stayed in touch throughout our stay to answer any queries. She left a hamper of goodies in the apartment which was much appreciated. Parking on site was much appreciated. Having Netflix was a bonus.

United KingdomThe 0930 checkout time on the Sunday. I felt that this was harsh considering we had spent over £300 pounds for a two night stay. I would have preferred an 11 am to midday checkout
Lovely location, clean and tidy, great communication from the host

United KingdomFeedback is always personal and intended to be constructive. Didn't appreciate fact neighbouring property had some noisy building work going on. Future guests need to appreciate it is quite a walk and a steep one at that back from St Ives Centre to the apartment. Even the fittest would need to catch their breath!
Cannot fault Owners, Anne and Mike. Property delightful and with numerous welcoming touches - on arrival food in fridge; teas, coffees, scones and biscuits in plentiful supply; sanitiser (post covid); Guest Information pack; fresh flowers etc. So penthouse a massive 'thumbs up.

United KingdomAlthough not a problem for us the walk into St. Ives was more like a twenty minute walk then ten. Longer coming back up the hill! Saying that it was nice to be slightly out of town.
This property was everything we could have asked for and more Facilities were good - little gift and flowers when we arrived Owner was more than helpful

United KingdomIf we were being really picky the internet wasn’t great and the signal frequently dropped out.
The Lighthouse Penthouse met all our needs for a short break away. The accommodation was fabulous- exceptionally clean and beautifully furnished. Super comfy bed. Wonderful sea views. We loved the welcome pack, toiletries and plenty of towels. A great property. Would certainly return.

United KingdomIt's a tough uphill 1 mile walk back from St Ives. Actually we quite enjoyed it but not everyone will ( and taxis buses etc will help!) For a one week self-catering stay the kitchen equipment is a little lightweight. Not bad, just missing a few things.
The welcome. The assistance. The view. The equipment. The comfort. The decor. The lovely bedding. It all really feels very well thought out. Recommended!
