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.).

GermanyOn arrival nobody was present, which also happened to a couple of other visitors we met. Had to call numerous times until I gained access to the booked cottage. The upper floor gets quite warm even during the night, and the AC does not help too much with that, because it does not blow upwards and there is no window that you can open on the upper level.
It's very close to Astrid Lindgrens Värld and Näs, i.e. in walking distance, and you can reach the center of Vimmerby easily. The staff was very nice. It was no problem to extend the stay by another day. This is probably different in the high season. Even in the low season on Friday and Saturday almost all cottages were occupied. We used the grill place a couple of times, which is nice in this complex. The cottages are not new anymore, but still good.

SwitzerlandThere was hair in the shower still from the previous guests when we arrived, it would be good to have staff check if everything has been cleaned well enough and touch up of necessary.
Perfect location for visiting Astrid Lindgren world, it was an easy walk there and back. Accommodation was simple but fine for a short stay.

DenmarkSmall children and stairs can be a daunting task for parents to keep an eye on them while they climb it. No accidents happened, but it makes the parents quite uneasy.
The placement of the room was perfect for going to Astrid Lindgrens Värld.

SwedenThe staircase to the beds upstairs was tricky to use. Small kitchen/livingroom if you are more than 3 person's staying even if there are 6 beds.
The room has AC. Bring your own bed linnen or you can borrow for 75 sek. Clean the room yourself or it can be done for a fee of 450 sek. Good food, breakfast for 55 sek/person. Dinner was taco and pizza buffé for 130 sek. Child under 3 no charge for the dinner.

United StatesThe price value of the Oxgarden Hotel was one of the worst on our entire trip in Sweden in August 2023. We paid nearly 200Euros for a night without bedsheets (you have to bring them or pay extra), and you are expected to clean the place after your stay. No breakfast is included in your already steep price. The bathroom has no hotel standard - if you take a shower the entire bathroom floor is wet. The mattresses are old and saggy in the middle, making them pretty uncomfortable. If this place would charge 50-70 Euros per night and per cottage, I would say this is adequate, but 200 Euros per night is a rip-off and one of the worst price-value ratios in Southern Sweden. The place takes advantage of the Astrid Lindgren park and its visitors needing accommodations.
The location is great if you are planning on visiting Vimmerby and the Astrid Lindgren Park. I assume most people staying at this place come for that reason. Parking is free.

SwitzerlandFirst off, we booked through booking.com and completely missed that there are no bedsheets or towels and that we had to clean ourselves to avoid a cleaning fee. That info was way down in the confirmation, which caused irritation. Had to rent towels and sheets, staff were awesome though in accommodating and dealing with me. It felt expensive for what it is, given I had to clean before leaving and sort bedding for just 1 nights stay. It’s very little soundproofing so when we tried to get our very small kids to bed we heard everything going on outside, which were kids playing until late. During the night I woke up because of hearing the neighbors open/close their door and we could even hear snoring through the walls.
Location is great and lovely for kids. And very sweet
