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 KingdomNothing, everything was fine. Just one of the door hinges was a little lose at the top. Avoid the use of the door, so it didnt become loose.
Location was good, facilities were great! Close to the train station plus close to were we needed to get to.

SpainThe sofa/ sofa bed. We were 6 people and really, the sofa bed isn't ideal for a person to sleep on so the house should be marketed for 5 people not 6. It isn't a proper fold out sofa bed, it's an IKEA sofa that you can make into a larger sofa. OK for a small child but not an adult. You can't put a sheet down so it's literally like sleeping on a cramped sofa.
House was clean and perfect for what we needed. Warm with the central heating.

United KingdomUnfortunately the property needs a bit of TLC and attention to ensure that when new occupants arrive that everything is in order and working. The door between kitchen and diner was hanging off 1 hinge. Dishwasher didn't work. The beds could definitely do with some better mattresses, they had seen better days with the springs pretty much gone.
Easy to get to by car and had it's own drive way. The property is pretty spacious, large lounge & dining area. Kitchen is spacious with lots of lighting. 3 large bedrooms, 2 x double bed and 1 single

United KingdomWe couldn’t get the hob to work and there are no instructions, although I do use an induction hob at home I couldn’t get this one to work. And there was a rat running around in the garden, which Needs some bait put down. Would certainly come again.
It’s a lovely house and in a very good location. It was nice that they left little extras in bathroom and kitchen.

United KingdomThe location of the property was really nice and we felt this area was quite safe in comparison to other places in London. We had no problem with parking and because it felt so safe we had no worries about anything happening to the car. The house was really clean and really pretty, it was genuinely a 10/10 stay.

AustraliaWhere do I start. Garden was overgrown. Wardrobes were full of owners spare bedding. As there was nowhere else to put anything this made things difficult. Bathroom stank. Fridge stank. Sofa was like a park bench. As was advertised as sleeps six this would be an issue for anyone wanting to “sleep six”. Small bedroom had wardrobe door ripped off. Second bedroom wardrobe door was off it’s tracks. Curtains hanging off track in front bedroom. Very sparsely furnished throughout. Carpets badly stained.
Nothing
