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.).

Great location with ample off-road car parking - a bonus in Wells. Easy walking distance to Staithe Street, pubs and the Quay. Comfortably holds 6 people, and a very nice dining area which seats 6. We'd happily return. Expensive but everything in Wells is very expensive. We could have had 2 weeks in Spain flights included for what 3 nights in Wells cost.

Location was excellent as just a few minutes walk from the quayside and shops, restaurants and pubs, and only a 20 minute brisk walk to the beach. The enclosed garden was great for the dog, on and off street parking good. House was pleasantly refurbished and the open plan kitchen diner with link out to the garden would be great in the warmer months.

United KingdomI'd be being very picky but the guest towels were a little worn and I couldn't find an outside light directly on patio.
The location was great, just out of the hustle and bustle but only a short walk and there was entertainment, food and drink. The securely fenced garden was great for the dogs and parking at the back was good as I would have been wary of parking on such a narrow road. The instructions left for operating shower, water and heating etc. were straightforward and easy and the touristy info was helpful.

United KingdomThe duvets were thin, not really suitable for winter. The sofas were not very comfortable and the kitchen was not really well appointed if you were planning to stay for a long time/do lots of cooking. Some of the decoration was quite tired (scuffs and bashes on walls, around radiators etc).
Location was great, property was quiet and there was private parking. It was also warm with the heating on. Perfect for a short stay to explore Wells and if you were planning to eat out for the majority of meals.
