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 KingdomBed was a little hard for me.
Warm welcome. Free parking. Pub within walking distance. Kebab van across street which did a great healthy shish wrap with salad. Microwave and mini fridge in room...with fresh milk.

CanadaEverything was good, but it would have been nice to have a common area to hang out with our group and also to be able to get drinks and snacks on the premises. We would absolutely stay here again. It is very convenient while walking The Way.
Location near the Camino Ingles. Great owner who actually messaged us when we had gone for dinner at a nearby pub. We were walking and it started to rain so he came and picked us up.

United KingdomThe bed was uncomfy and a small double, shower was extremely loud and tray quite slippy. Walls had a lot of scuff marks could do with a tidy up. I also feel like we should have the option if anyone enters the room when we weren’t there as on the first day when we returned back some one had been when they didn’t need to.
Best part was being able to watch what we wanted on the tv and we was extremely close to we’re we wanted to go. The little breakfast tray they provided was good for my other half he enjoyed that. The owners seem extremely lovely and a beautiful home. Loved the earlier check in than usual places. A microwave in the room which is unusual but again a great touch if you don’t fancy eating out as you are able to have a hot meal. The weekend turned into more of a chill for us and it absolutely served it’s purpose.

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike But just FYI I think the description for directions should advise guests not to take the Dummer Village turning when approaching from Basingstoke direction but just 200yds past this on the left a secluded (easily missed) track Could really use a sign on the main road.
Booked a twin room for a quick stay with my mum The room was fab, very comfy beds good shower and even a fridge with fresh milk and bottled water which in my mind is a simple addition but rarely given in the supposedly best hotels in this country! And for a super price even a continental breakfast pack was included Thank you shall book again for sure 🙂

If this was stated in the information I missed it, and apologise, I was looking forward to a hearty Breakfast.

United KingdomThe mattresses need replacing
In a good location for an overnight stop along the St James Way. There was a selection of basic breakfast items which was really helpful as there are no shops close by (Sun Inn down the road one direction, kebab van down the road the other direction - both really good!). The owners were easily contactable by phone.
