Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

We liked everything about our stay. The location was perfect, a short walk to the esplanade, old village and town centre. Excellent hosts in Jonathon and Simon, who were very welcoming, nothing was ever any trouble and couldn't do enough for us. Our room was a great size and well furnished with all the amenities we required. Breakfast was well presented and excellent quality. Would certainly use it again and highly recommend it.

United KingdomThere was nothing that we disliked.
Everything was good. Simon and Jonathan (father and son) are efficient and brilliant hosts. We felt that every effort was made to ensure that our stay was the best it good be. The breakfast was lovely. On the days that I didn't fancy a cooked breakfast I simply had toast. Simon made the best fruit salad I have ever had. We requested an extra large room because we live in a small, gardenless flat. The room was huge and felt like pure luxury as did the garden and conservatory. The location was close to bus routes, rail station, beach, town centre and Old Town. This meant that travelling without a car was not at all problematic.

United KingdomNot an issue for us but the house is as the house is, a property built some time ago long before any consideration for disability so if someone cannot cope with stairs The Avenue would not be for them
Generally Simon and Jonathan go the extra mile to ensure guests’ stay is made as good as they can make it. What stood out? The welcome: a leisurely cup of tea while they get all the housekeeping details sorted Breakfast: just outstanding Local knowledge: Simon has a lifelong experience of the island so the master of any local detail Little extras: all reasonable requests entertained like non-standard tea bags for the bedroom
