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.).

IndiaHard to say.
The time. Simply said, we had the best time together in a long while. The location is perfect; it's just off the highway but tucked away from the noises. Beautiful view. Extremely carefully maintained home with all the things u would need. All things functional, including a very decent wifi connection in case u r looking for a staycation. The food was awesome. Jaya is an excellent cook. Kartikay is an excellent host and takes care of everything in minute details. I was really embarrassed to see a clean car when we were about to return, he cleaned it; i was reminded of my laziness. Ketan, their son, needs a special mention. He is an absolute gem and would help u out along with his dad. For me this place was extra special; my younger paw daughter had a time of her life and found a best friend in Ketan. She was pampered. Thank you Mehta family and Booking.com for this wonderful holiday. I will come back.

IndiaI recently stayed at Merlin Grove Suites in Shimla and had a fantastic experience. The homestay offers a perfect blend of comfort and natural beauty. The rooms are clean, spacious, and provide stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The staff are incredibly hospitable and attentive, making sure every need is met. The food was delicious, with a great mix of local and international dishes. Its location is ideal, providing a peaceful retreat while being close to Shimla's attractions. I highly recommend Merlin Grove Suites for a memorable stay in Shimla.

India1. Not much option for market nearby.(But mostly your needs will be taken care by the hosts) 2. Personal vehicle is mandatory as the property is away from city and not much options of public transport. 3. Internet strength should be improved.
1. Very generous hosts. Always ready for help or any requirement. 2. Property is good. It is great for family like a complete home. 3. Garden within the property. 4. Morning Sunbath with awesome mountain views. 5. Away from city chaos. 6. They have unique flower plants which makes it even beautiful and pleasant place. 7. They also provided plants to take to our home as we were very interested.

IndiaFood could be a little better but nonetheless its value for money. The kitchen is not operational for short stays. So would have appreciated a hot kettle atleast . Not a lot of food options nearby.
Beautiful location overlooking the mountains. Serene environment . A place where you can just relax and spend quality time with you family. Great hosts. Very attentive and helpful. Very neat and clean apartment with 2 bedrooms ,2 bathrooms, a dining and a terrace with a stunning view.
