Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaNothing to be done about it, as the house is an old cottage, but you need to be aware that the staircase leading up to the bathroom and second bed is very narrow and steep. Im 90kg and broad shouldered and found it tight. If you were not 100% comfortable with steep narrow stairs (eg elderly, bad joints, have trouble fitting into a std airplane chair...) this may not be for you I think the site could do with a spring clean.
Beautiful tiny cottage located 2 min walk from shops. Lovely place for a quite weekend away. We loved getting takeaway, sitting around the fire with the lights turned down, playing board games with a glass of wine. Beautiful front garden to sit it when not in the house.

AustraliaLove the closeness to Olinda village while still feeling like I’m in the forest. It’s a short walk either way to Olinda village and the other part of Olinda. It’s very cosy with the wood fire and the owners are very generous with breakfast provisions. This is my second stay with Como Cottages and I’ll likely stay again in the future on my next trip to Melbourne.

BrazilWe are two friends travelling together and booked the two-bedroom cottage, which was more expensive than the studio. At check-in, only one bedroom was available, and the other was locked. Brett promptly came and unlocked the second bedroom, but charged us an extra fee for it. I don’t think this was fair, as we had already booked (and paid for) the more expensive option to have both bedrooms available. Aside from this issue, the experience was really good. If it weren’t for that, the stay would have been perfect.
The cottage itself was really cozy and welcoming , it was warm and comfortable, which made it perfect for relaxing after a day out. The location was amazing, peaceful and surrounded by beautiful nature, yet still close enough to everything we needed. We also really appreciated the breakfast options available , they were delicious and added a special touch to our mornings. The space was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Overall, despite the small issue at check-in, we truly enjoyed our time here. With such a charming atmosphere and great amenities, we would definitely consider coming back!

AustraliaThis is the most memorable accommodation I've ever stayed, with beautiful forest view and fairy tale design. The facilities are in very good condition, a small kitchen, a bathroom and a garden are included. In addition to everything needed, the manager was very considerate to provide small, nice stuff like a candle, an incense, matches, chocolates, a CD player, booklets about the area... and even attached a lovely welcoming note to the door, which really added more sweet flavour during my stay. The atmosphere is unbelievably peaceful, perfect for people who want to escape city and enjoy nature & meditation.
