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 StatesWe booked the king room with the loch view for the last two nights of our stay in Scotland. It was beautiful, and the comfy chairs in front of the picture window were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the gorgeous view! Liz and Billy were the consummate hosts and we would not hesitate to stay again the next time we are in the area.

United KingdomWe were supposed to stay for 2 nights attending the gig - Kyle Falconer. We booked our room in advance and it was non refundable. Tue whole area is now badly flooded and roads are shut due to the amber alert and the heavy rain. Liz, the owner, was amazing and cancelled our reservation without any cost. We would like to visit the place in the future as it’s clearly run by good people who love what they are doing, in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Hope you are all safe and we can see you soon! Thank you, Gaja and Pete from Cheshire

United KingdomAll of our stay was very relaxing & most enjoyable. The view from the bedroom window was stunning, very picturesque with the weather to compliment the beautiful surroundings. Our hosts, Liz & Billy, were very sociable, thoughtful & extremely welcoming. The food was of the highest quality, superbly cooked & with sheer dedication to detail of serving, presentation & taste. The dining area was beautifully positioned to take in the panoramic view of the Loch & all its beauty. A delightful haven to be revisited. A credit to Liz & Billy with many thanks, will see you again.

FranceEverything was perfect. Even if Liz and Billie did not have a baby cot or high chair for our little one- they made everything possible to accommodate !
The house is very well located at the Loch with a magnificent view - a bit further from the touristic places of Loch Lomond- definitely what we were looking for ! Billy and Liz are superb hosts which made our stay with our 2 kids (5 and 2) very enjoyable!! All equipment are high standing and the food was delicious. Playing with Watson was also a plus for our 2 little ones. The only regret we have is that we could stay only one night at the end of our trip in Scotland and would have definitely enjoyed staying longer!

United StatesBilly and Liz were extremely accommodating when we had a car breakdown on the day we were supposed to check in, I am so appreciative of their kindness after such a rough day of travel. The breakfast was consistently delightful- we tried the full Scottish as well as a breakfast of granola cereal/toast/yogurt and fruit. The coffee was excellent. Looking out over the loch during breakfast was lovely! Our room was generously sized, the bed was beyond comfy, and I loved sitting in front of the window in the mornings and evenings. Liz and Billy had plenty of books available to read which was great thinking on their part. We walked a lot of the local trails during our stay- we can highly recommend The Cobbler, Steeple Hill, Duke's Path, and a walk to see the falls. There is a folder in the downstairs lounge containing information on local walks along with other books describing the local history.

Hong Kongabsolutely nothing - the fact that we had to leave was a bummer
Billy and Liz are a real delight and we would go back in a heartbeat. Simon makes the best food (we ate in one evening) and serves a very tasty breakfast. They will be able to tell you about what there is to do in the surroundings if need be. Their house has a beautiful view on the lake and is so peaceful and calm you will be able to relax upon arrival.
