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.).

SwitzerlandThe stairs to the second floor are steep and narrow. It would be difficult for older people to take luggage upstairs and for children to go the restroom at night.
The location of the house is just perfect! Right at the center of the touristic area but in a quiet part (we were there off-season). The only noise we heard at night was ducks walking on the street :) The house had great facilities at the kitchen, although we did not really use. It was very well heated even though it is an old house.

AustraliaThe one thing that we did not enjoy was having to make our own bed once we arrived when you’re travelling this is one of the luxuries / expectation that the bedrooms have been made up ready for sleep
The location of this beautiful little Fishermans cottage being so close along the front strip was absolutely lovely. We were really thrilled to be so close to the town

TurkeyI don’t like the kitchen so much but if you think it’s an old fisherman’s house, it’s normal.
I like the location and the style of the house. It’s in the center. The owner of the house was friendly. He told us a free parking place. To sum up we liked staying in that house.

ItalyParking is quite far from the house, but the host explained it before arriving there. We have had some misunderstandings with the host when we arrived there, but we could solve in a couple of minutes. The stairs are quite steep, so be careful if you have trouble walking or babies.
Very nice and traditional house in a very nice village, well equipped with everything necessary for a short holiday. In less than one hour by bus (very frequent!) you are in Amsterdam Centraal.

EstoniaThe lack of a hairdryer; It would help if you used flip-flops in the shower (there was no shower tray, at least when we were there); Some insects (not much of a problem. You'd expect them in a house); I have allergies, so the biggest problem for me was the cold and wet air in the house and some heavy smell. After we warmed up the house during the night (using a heater), the smell went away, and the air became dryer and more suitable for me. Also, the bed linen had a strong smell of washing powder and provoked some allergies, but after the first night, these problems were gone, and I absolutely enjoyed our stay there.
We chose this place for a stay because we couldn't afford to stay inside Amsterdam. And that was a blessing that we discovered such a picturesque town full of history, narrow and gorgeous streets of old fishermens' houses with restaurants, cafes, shops, and museums. The cuisine is wonderful (better and cheaper than Amsterdam's); you should definitely try seafood there! The house itself is nice, in the center of the town, near the old church, and just one or two houses from the main street and the seafront! The bus stop to Amsterdam is around 500-700 meters away. The view from the windows is gorgeous and serene. The kitchen is fully equipped. The beds were located on the second floor and were quite comfortable. Check-in and check-out time is flexible. The host was so friendly and kind! We had a nice conversation, and he let us check in late in the evening. Also, check-in and check-out were smooth and convenient. That was a pleasant taste of life in a house in a small town by the sea!
