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.).

MalaysiaThe house is off a busy main road, it wasn't easy to locate and we drove pass it twice! Perhaps need to leave instructions how to get to the place, especially those who are driving. You can actually safely drive to the back where the designated car park is located.
The location is excellent! Waitrose and Tesco express are just 3 mins away. There's also parking @£8 per day. We can walk to the Town Centre within 10 mins. The house is well equipped. The host is very pleasant and accommodating. On the day we checked put, we left our car in the designated carpark until 1pm , allowing us to do more sightseeing, shopping and lunch.

United KingdomThe check -in time of 16.00pm and check-out time of 10.00am, needs to be reviewed to better accommodate guests. During my stay one room was vacated at 10.00am, but not turned around until that late afternoon. With the property not being a large one and only having so few (3/4) rooms to turnaround the check-in/out could be more accomodating for the guests. The shower rail and curtain 'inside' the bath is a bit of an obstacle and due to the curtain not being cut to size, all the the excess wet material sits around your feet, and could be a bit of a trip hazard waiting to happen. The lounge has a sliding patio door that opens onto a small courtyard which then opens directly out through a back gate into a public neighbouring property parking area. The doors original locking mechanism is missing, and this has been replaced with just a brass 'hook and loop latch' which was always left unsecured, so the doors could be just slid open from the outside, which happened during my stay with a small group of people entering the house through these doors. From both a guest and property security perspective the owners / management should get the door replaced or professionally repaired to avoid unauthorized entry.
The property was large (a 3 level townhouse layout) and spacious and placed well for the town centre. The room was spacious, clean and also had a small fridge in the room which helps with cold drinks etc.

New ZealandThe decor was a little dated, and there were a couple of small stains on the carpet in the room, but certainly not a big deal and attributable to normal wear and tear. There was a new carpet square around the bed as a mat which was newer and unstained so clearly there has been effort made to make up for it. Overall, the cleanliness was great!!
Far was amazing to deal with, very friendly and welcoming. There was anything you could possibly need, chargers, hair-dryer and basic cooking supplies in the kitchen which often get missed like baking paper for the oven and salt, pepper & oil. Room was spacious and the bathroom spotless which is more that what I can say for many a place I've stayed in!

United KingdomPersonally found the internal shower curtain placed inside the glass shower screen a bit challenging, but nothing major to ruin my stay. Overhearing a guest sitting below in the small fenced court garden smoking and spitting onto the ground in the mornings.Other than that relatively quite house.
Good size carpeted clean room and comfortable bed with small fridge and large tv and good wifi. Coffee and tea etc in the kitchen left by the management for guests. Nice property located within a short walk to the centre and parks etc.

FranceThe shower in Room 1 was a letdown. There was a contrived shower curtain / shower screen combination and not very spacious. The shower head either sprayed such a wide jet of water that it went everywhere or slowed to a low-pressure trickle. We couldn't get any of the BBC channels on the TV in the room; the picture was scrambled and the sound distorted.
Very comfortable and spacious accommodation. The bedroom was great, having lots of nice features and touches : fridge, large flat screen TV, wardrobe, bedside tables, plenty of wall sockets, electric fan, en-suite .... Shared features include a fully fitted kitchen with a larger fridge-freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, oven & hob, and tea and coffee.

He showed me where he keeps the shampoos, soaps and shower gels so I can take anything whenever I need. When I felt cold, he provided me with extra electric heater. He was present most of the time to check the accommodation status. Many thanks to him.
