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.).

SwitzerlandEverything was really good but there was only one bathroom/toilet which is not really practical when we are 5 or more people.
Beautiful little cabin located in the center of Lofoten. Perfect place to visit the Lofoten. Decoration was really nice, kitchen was well furnished, view was amazing. Bente was really nice, sending us helpful messages and even told us when there were Northern Lights.

SingaporeNothing. I regret i didn't stay longer.
The best hotel we stayed in the entire trip. The owner was friendly, helpful and responsive. Her cabin was in very good condition. I loved all the heated floors and the wonderful fjord views. Towels were clean. Parking was easy. Kitchen was well equipped. We could see Northern lights near the balcony. i like the cozy 2nd floor cozy living room with look through glasses. Highly recommended though the cabin is a bit difficult to find. But with GPS, its not a big issues. Owner was very helpful with all my queries and answered me very timely.

IsraelView from the house was magnificent. The location was wonderful and offered hiking possibilities close by. Hiking and other suggestions were offered by the books and maps available in the house. We generally prepared our meals ourselves and the house was very well equipped for that. The house has 3 comfortable bedrooms and one bathroom . The location has several very good restaurants and we recommend Haim.

United StatesThe only thing I can think of would be a fan for the summer. You must close the blinds upstairs on sunny days because it becomes very hot upstairs and even with the windows open, there is very little ventilation. But that is the ONLY thing I can think of, this place was close to perfect!
I can not say enough good things about this property. The location was very quiet and felt remote but it is only 5 minutes to the restaurants of Ballstad and 15 min from Leknes. The property was beautifully decorated throughout- spacious dining table and chairs downstairs and leather lounge chairs and sofa upstairs. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook several meals (we had our own spices) and the refrigerator was large. The rorbuer can sleep 7 but doesn't feel too big for 2 people. The beds were very comfortable and we had access to extra comforters and pillows. The bathroom was spacious and there was a combo washer/dryer which was a bonus. Did I mention the views? OMG, we did not want to leave this place every day. You are on a small bay leading out to the ocean with incredible mountains in front of you. In our 4 days, we saw glassy reflections, storms roll in, rainbows, and beautiful sunsets. There is also a mountain you can hike right out your door that has beautiful views of the rorbuers and Ballstad. Also, the rorbuers feel private though they are located right next to each other. They are positioned in a way that you really can not see into your neighbor's cabin unless you are trying to! I can not say enough good things about this property, a true gem.
