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 KingdomThe only thing I would say is that it’s not very child friendly for example there’s no high chair/ carrycot available or any children’s plates, cutlery etc. But it was ok for our short trip but if I was staying for a longer period would ideally look for a place that catered for kids
The property was ideal for what we needed for the weekend it was close too the shops and pubs all within walking distance!

United KingdomNo problems or downside at all.
A very comfortable and clean cottage in a nice quiet courtyard, the beds were very comfy and the whole place felt newly decorated. A good location only 5 minutes to the centre of Appleby or walks along river Eden. Good base for the Dales & Lakes also station on Settle to Carlisle railway. Would like to return. There is a 2 hour permit for parking just across the road but its also free from 6pm to 8am.

United KingdomNothing. Everything was great!
In all honesty I didn't expect how great this property was, especially for the price we paid! Spacious, tidy, well kept and had everything we could possibly need. Lovely scenic town, again with everything we could possibly need - restaurants, cafes, pubs, shops, takeaways and super friendly 'locals'. Parking outside was easy. Beds were super comfy. Shower pressure was great. Soft and fluffy towels. Everything we needed in the kitchen and fun games in the lounge. Easy check-in thanks to the key safe at the property. Quiet location. Great communication from the lovely hosts. We would happily have stayed here for longer and would love to return.

United KingdomVery inadequate cleaning downstairs, floor and fridge needed more attention but especially pet hairs saturating sofa cushions (Henry vac struggled to clean these) . Almost unusable electric shower with low pressure causing scalding hot or freezing cold and we really did try hard. No heating in bathroom (heated towel rail would help) so really chilling experience. We'd suggest turning on radiators at plug before guests arrive, house chilly and a bit musty on our arrival. We're sorry to complain but house was such a disappointment, contrast with cottage next door could not have been greater. We were all going to a lovely series of wedding events over the three days we stayed, so we focussed on having a great time.
Location v good for town and next door to rest of our group attending a wedding. Beds were comfortable but couldn't make up for a disappointing experience, especially highlighted by excellent cottage next door (which was £100 cheaper for the three nights).
