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 StatesThe shower fixtures were a little tricky at first but eventually worked fine.
It was very clean. The entire property was very well maintained. It felt very quaint and not commercial. There was a lot of attention to detail. The staff were friendly and always available to answer questions. Our porch had a view of the ocean which was a pleasant surprise.

United StatesI booked a king sized room, but none were available so was put into a queen/double room. The clerk said that what was sent to them from booking.com but I clearly reserved a king. She said I should have booked directly with the property. In that case they should be on the booking.com site.

Location was great. Didn't take advantage of the breakfast. Wasn't served until 7:30. We were up and out by that time. The room was very clean and the lady who checked us in was very friendly. Good location.

United StatesWe stayed in the motel (not cottages). The interior felt like a typical motel with dirty walls, hardware not working, minimal shampoo, bad lighting. Maybe it was all a bit tired because it’s nearing the end of tourist season? I think we expected more based on the reviews and the price, so it was fairly disappointing. Pool closes aggressively at 8:50 pm, ha! P.S. Visitors might find it useful to know that Gloucester beaches are only accessible to non-residents by advance reservation during high season.
Plunge pool was popular with the kids. New carpet was pleasant, coffee in the lobby was good. Appreciated all the outdoor tables!

United StatesI would have liked softer pillows. There is ice and a microwave in a little room near the pool. I would like a microwave in the rm. All staff were very accomadating. However on the day we were leaving I felt that one housekeeper was trying to rush us out of the room in the morning, so the room could be cleaned.
Continental breakfast included all the essentials. Coffee was appreciated. Liked that there were little bistro tables and chairs. My family enjoyed the outdoor pool, which is kept at 80°F. There were tables with umbrellas and lounge chairs, as well as towels for guests' use. No bathroom at the pool. Enjoyed the chairs and balcony outside our door.
