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.).

NetherlandsThere was a lot of food left in the refrigerator, cupboards and freezer from previous guests.
It was really in the country so away from everything and easy to drive to from the Eurotunnel exit at Folkstone. The farmhouse had character and plenty of space for the four of us. It was also nice to be able to sit outside and have a drink as the weather was rather nice when we were stying at Ockham's. We wanted to visit Chartwell and Hever Castle so the location was perfect. The owner was very welcoming and friendly; she'd also left us some bread, milk, eggs (fresh!) and butter, which was kind. There was also ice in the freezer which was great!

NetherlandsI can't really think of anything - it's good to know though that because it is an old house, there are some low beams and doorways. We hope to come back for a longer stay!
The house is tastefully decorated, with a real "personal touch", and comfortable. It has three bathrooms, a well-equipped kitchen and an enclosed garden (for the dog). The owner is very nice and makes sure that essential groceries are available (bread, butter, eggs, jam, milk, cereals, coffee, tea, etc.). The location with regard to sightseeing is very convenient (Leeds Castle, Hever Castle, Knole, Canterbury etc.). You can also take beautiful walks directly from the house.

FranceUnfortunately, there is no pub within reasonable walking distance, but that is of course not the host's fault!
Fabulously located in the countryside, this is an older farm cottage with all that entails - it is clean, very cosy, with exceptionally comfortable beds and a nice large kitchen equipped with very nearly everything, but also has sloping and creaking floorboards and a downstairs bathroom with a less-than-tight-closing door that is about two feet from the dining table, for example (fortunately there are two further bathrooms upstairs). The host is an absolute darling, and provided us with fresh milk, bread, butter and eggs from her own chickens. My family spent a wonderful few days here over Christmas, enjoying each others' company and going for long walks. For us, it was perfect.

United KingdomNothing to dislike.
Location superb. It is a rustic farm cottage in the countryside so expect a few bugs and as you expect a country cottage to be; but was spotlessly clean, well stocked and plenty of space. Extremely friendly and helpful owners. I would recommend and would be happy to stay there again.

United KingdomInstructions for the television in the lounge would have been useful but that might just be us who found it difficult. I didn’t really effect our stay; we played some boardgames anyway and there are televisions in every room.
Lovely peaceful traditional cottage packed full of all the things you might need as if you were at home. Shetland pony to goes out through the kitchen window lots of beds and space for us to have a family gathering. Janey our host was friendly and there if we needed her but otherwise we will have to make ourselves completely at home. Thanks Janey.

United KingdomThe downstairs bathroom could do with updating.
I loved staying in this property so much. It is a really old farmhouse. It feels lovely inside. All the rooms are spacious. The view from the garden / house is stunning, and you are able to walk from the door into really beautiful countryside. There are sheep just next to the garden. There are three bedrooms and three bathrooms so we all had our own en suite! The owner was so kind and left us fresh eggs from the farm as well as bread and butter and tea and milk.

Very warm welcome and generous welcome pack including fresh farm eggs. Ideal location for a relaxing stay in a countryside location close to the London suburbs. Felt like stepping back in time. Our hosts were keen to make our stay as enjoyable as possible, and, for example, knowing that we had spent a long day at a friend’s wedding, thoughtfully offered us a later checkout on our day of departure.

United KingdomWe were shocked on arrival at the poor condition of the property and the state of the bathrooms which need complete renovation. One shower door was off the hinges and there was mould and thick limescale on the taps and shower heads. The shower trays didn’t drain and the plug holes were filthy. I took photographs as it was so bad. When we woke on our first morning we found that mice had been in the kitchen and had destroyed packets of.cereals which were spilled onto the floor. There were mice droppings over the surfaces and floor. We bought some Mouse Killer Grain Bait and put all foodstuffs into tins and placed them in the cupboards and disinfected all the surfaces. The sofa and dining chairs were dirty and stained.
Good location

GermanyHaving visited England a number of times we are very familiar with the local standards, however the bathrooms could use a makeover in time. We were there with 2 families with a total of 6 people. The children were in their teens. We only recommend this house for 4 people because the bathroom including the toilet on the ground floor can only be used to a limited extent because it is right next to the dining table. Sharing two bathrooms with 6 people proved to be a challenge. The access road to the property is not recommended for lowered sports cars. But we had a van and therefore no problems. The wifi was temporarily overloaded with 6 users
Outstanding, quiet location, landing approaches to Gatwick Airport didn't bother us, and there was also a ban on night flights. The landlord family received us very friendly, we got fresh eggs and milk, which we didn't expect. Also during the stay with words and deeds to the side.

United KingdomI liked everything.
Set in idyllic surroundings, the house is really comfortable and well equipped. Spacious yet very cosy, a real home from home. The owner Janey makes sure you have everything you need. We really appreciated the breakfast essentials she left for us. Having three bathrooms with plentiful hot water was perfect for us getting ready for a family wedding in Penshurst. Can't fault it, and would love to return someday to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Thank you!
