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.).

Just wow. The photos don’t do it justice. It’s much bigger than it looks with a bath (en suite) and shower room. Richard was a fab host and was there to greet us and show us around when we arrived. There was milk, fresh eggs, and Cornish butter, as well as a freshly baked loaf of bread! The dogs loved snuffling around the garden area and it was safe for them, as only small. There were also no dog rules, which made me happy, as our dogs are non shedding & we’re super tidy people anyway. The sofa was comfy. The tv was big and smart. The WiFi was very fast. It was peaceful, so relaxing & we will be back again for sure!

CanadaI really don't have any complaints. Exceptional.
The location was great, very central to everything but nice and quiet with an amazing view. The hosts loaded us up with fire wood for the wood burner and even brought us fresh mild, eggs and bread for the morning because we had arrived a bit late. We liked it so much we extended our stay several days!

Loved everything about the lovely and perfect house and very kind and warm hosts. The best experience we've ever had and highly recommend. The house has everything you'll ever need even for a long stay, it's modern, very well maintained, tastefully decorated, very clean and tidy and offers spectacular views. Richard and Christine are super helpful, warm, kind and the most amazing hosts there can be :) We would honestly visit again and again as many times as possible.

United KingdomNothing. It was lovely.
The Hut is very well equipped. It is stylish yet homely. I particularly liked that the hosts provided us with delicious home made bread, milk and eggs, and the cupboards were stocked with leftovers from previous guests, such as spices, teabags and coffee. The assortment of kitchen utensils showed that this was a property where people prepared meals. The shower was fantastic.

United KingdomHonestly the only point we could make and being really picky was a request for a shower squeeze to clean the shower ourselves … any need not really as the hosts clean it perfectly.
The communication from the owners prior to arrival was excellent, they were there to greet us and we were so thrilled exceeded our expectations. The location for us was perfect, complete peace and relaxation I wish we could have stayed longer.

Such a gorgeous little gem of a place. Wonderful location to get to Padstow where we had a birthday dinner booked. Cosy. Warm. Well equipped with modern kitchen and a shower and a bath. Like home from home. Richard welcomed us warmly and showed us around. We lit the woodburner and stayed cosy all evening. The views are stunning. Highly recommend staying here.

United KingdomThe accommodation was immaculate. Everything you needed was provided and all was of a high standard. The wood burning stove was a real bonus for the chilly evenings. The Hut was centrally located for visiting mid Cornwall. The narrow lanes to and from the property proved to be reversing challenge for the driver! We had a lovely stay.

United KingdomThere was nothing that we didn't like.
The location was perfect very quiet with beautiful views . The hut was so lovely everything spotlessly clean. The hut smelt beautiful and fresh. The hosts had left fresh bread, butter and milk which was very welcome after a long drive. The village was a lovely little place with a good size carpark. We were only there for two nights but it would have been lovely to spend longer there. We would certainly give 10/10 for this property.
