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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

AustraliaThe frogs in the garden are incredibly noisy, at least from sunset to about midnight, so good quality earplugs are a must if you want a good night's sleep. The air-conditioner/fan was a bit inadequate and added to the sleeping problem. The location is not really feasible for walking into the CBD so you always have to drive. However, this is only a few minutes.
Basically this is a private house in a suburban street with two bedrooms for guests so makes a nice alternative to a standard motel. The large kitchen, living space and garden are shared but this is not really a problem. Our room itself was a bit on the small size, although a balcony overlooking the garden compensated somewhat. Parking is on the road in front of the house but this is not really an issue.

Great location close to town and the beach (and airport). The host was super friendly and helpful and the House and room was amazing- clean, great decor and had everything you need (from beach gear to amenities in the bathroom). We loved the common area outside and our balcony and was nice to have a kitchen too!

United StatesThere was nothing not to like. Everything was amazing!
My stay in the Zen room at The Bamboo House in Kailua-Kona was absolutely delightful! The property is a serene oasis, providing the perfect escape while still being close to all the action. The Zen room (1 bedroom/1 bathroom) was pristine, beautifully decorated, and offered a true sense of tranquility. The shared amenities were top-notch, with a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living area, and a private lanai that was perfect for relaxing. The location was fantastic, with easy access to Kailua-Kona's beaches, shops, and restaurants. I highly recommend the Zen room at The Bamboo House for anyone looking for a peaceful and luxurious retreat in Hawaii. The attention to detail and comfort made my stay truly memorable!

The peacefulness of this accommodation is astounding. You feel like you've arrived at a spa. The rooms are large, bedsheets and towels made of premium quality, and quiet ambiance. There are two rooms on the top floor, so you are sharing the 'home' with another guest, but the wall are sp thick and you cannot hear into the other room. If you don't want to, you can easily keep to yourself and not run into the other guests. The owner lives on the first floor. My favourite part was the details - artwork from India, antique chairs from Indonesia, sunscreen and aloe vera in the bathroom for unlimited use, super stocked kitchen, etc. Highly recommend, wish we would have spend more than 2 nights here!

United StatesWould be nice to have a vent in the bathroom so it doesn’t get too stuffy but not a deal breaker. There’s a window that we just leave open all the time.
Wonderful stay! Everything was pretty much provided to make our stay comfortable. There’s even a washer/dryer to do laundry. Love that it’s pretty quiet and clean as well. Shared common areas but we didn’t see any couples while we were there. Would definitely stay here again.

United StatesThis was our first experience not having a whole house to ourselves or our own personal entry. Not sure we loved that but we only met up with the other couple staying there once on our 2 night stay so it wasn't bad.
The location was perfect for us and our activities. We felt very safe in the neighborhood. It had a great atmosphere. The face masks added a nice touch to the stay. There was snorkel gear and beach chairs to use. Loved the hammock.

United StatesThe fan in our room was a blessing to help keep the room cool, but it can make a bit of noise. Luckily, included in the room's thoughtful touches was a jar of ear plugs perfect for dampening any unwanted sounds!
We were met at the house by the host Dan, who showed us through the shared areas of the house and up to our suite. We stayed in a room called the Zen suite, which was spacious and beautifully decorated. Attached ensuite bathroom with roomy shower as well as a nice private balcony area overlooking the yard. Shared areas included the living room, cozy outdoor area, and well-equipped kitchen with filtered water, tea, and coffee provided.
