How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewLocation and views were phenomenal. It had all the facilities we needed to cook, games and a lovely balcony to sit on and have a cup of tea overlooking the waterfall.
Minor issue. There was no lock on the bathroom door.

Verified reviewGreat little apartment. Perfect for our family so we could eat in-house meals and have a place to hang out.
It didn't really bother us, but if you don't like walking up and down very steep slopes, this place might not be for you.

Verified reviewEven though the location is not central, it is a 10 min walk that is beautiful and refreshing... and the view... What a stunning view of the waterfalls. The owner was very friendly. We loved it.
The only downside, is that the chalet is a little bit confusing to discover the entrance door because (it is behind the house main entrance) and some of the beds are bunker so our elderly and young children had difficulties to access (which is ok if you are young, but it was difficult for my parents).

Verified reviewAmazing place! A true dream house — cozy, comfortable and with a warm, homey feeling. The house has everything you need for a pleasant stay: a good coffee machine with coffee, oil, salt, kitchen paper, all necessary dishes, as well as clean, stain-free towels and fresh bed linen. The host was very responsive and helpful and kindly allowed us to charge our electric car. Big thank you for that! And the views from the windows… just breathtaking! I would love to come back to this house and this beautiful place!

Verified reviewnice place and the pictures are accurate.
1) distance from train station is almost 900 m. 2) Path to the place is very inconvenient and difficult if you are having luggages on wheels. (going up and down steep slopes on paths (loose pebbles path or sandy path). 3) Only provided 1 rubbish bag in the kitchen (3 days stay). So if planning to do some simple cooking, need to buy your own rubbish bags….

Verified reviewSo charming! I mean, you are staying in a chalet in Switzerland. So much to like: —views!! of waterfalls from living room windows and porch —lofts and bunk beds for kids (fun!) —warm and cozy —they have a fondue set so we went to grocery and made our own cheese and chocolate fondue both nights. —location is very good to main part of town, can walk to or drive —free parking in front of your private entrance. This apartment is on top floor, owner lives on bottom floor. —sauna in front, plus a fire pit and outdoor dining table —owner was so genuinely kind and nice —laundry facilities available downstairs in technical room (shared with owner) —loved the natural wood throughout —there is a cute treat cart in the entry way where you can leave money for something you want to buy —while the bathroom is small, totally sufficient and the shower water and pressure was nice and hot (and we had 5 people) —good price and space for a family rental comparatively to others in the area! —all the chalet and cabin vibes!
We loved it! But a few things to note: —the owner and family/young kids live downstairs and he works on updating the property during working hours (never too early/late though). —some neighbors did not like us driving. We got head shakes and a flip-off from a 10yo. I rolled down the window and asked kindly to one lady “why are you shaking your head at us? What are we doing wrong??” She said this is not a road and i said… but yes it is, it’s the road to our rental home. And she suddenly became super nice! “Ohhhh well then, enjoy.” It has to be hard as a local living in a beautiful tourist town. So be aware and respectful. —it is somewhat “raw” and rough around the edges, rustic yet has all the modern amenities. Less hotel-like and more cabin-like. But that also brings charm!

Verified reviewUnfortunately we were disappointed given there are only positive reviews here. Maybe they are still renovating as the outside area looks like a building site and inside it sounds like one from early morning. Whilst not wrong, the pictures look much better than reality. Overall quality is low, with ill-fitting solutions, limited hot water, lots of rules, no dishwasher, knives falling apart and a lot of permanent marker throughout the place. Maybe if other reviews had been more balanced it would have been better.

Verified reviewThis is a magical chalet in a magical location - loved it. It's at the mouth of the beautiful steep sided trough valley that inspired Tolkien's Middle Earth. It's full of family history that makes you feel connected ! You are welcomed with local meats and cheese that you can buy. Kids will love the mezzanine beds tucked away up wooden ladders!
There was nothing we didn't like
