Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United KingdomNothing to do with the cottage. The roads are shocking on Islay feel for the residents of the beautiful island. And the Rangers boat out front was a shock. But that's coming from an Aberdeen fan 😉
The cottage was easy to find and was very central in it's location. Would love to book the cottage again soon

United KingdomOnly thing that let it down slightly was that the bedrooms just didn’t have the appeal like the rest of the house, really struggled trying to do hair and makeup in the double room as there was no where to put your stuff , even a shelf below the mirror would have helped, there was an extension but my straighteners still didn’t reach to see in the mirror, single bedroom needs some TLC this did not spoil our holiday in any way it’s just a preference .
Lovely large well equipped kitchen, great views from the sun room and living room comfortable seating and beds location perfect and lovely big garden

United Statesthere was nothing we didn’t like about the property.
The property was in a lovely Village, and close the things that we wanted to do. Had plenty of room for our family of four, the host Mary was super kind. We really enjoyed our stay here, and would love to come back again, the kitchen was also amazing! And had everything imagine needing!

United KingdomThe 9:00 checkout time was a little early for us. A 10:00 departure would have made our last morning there less stressful. Small price to pay for the lovely accommodation though.
Ideal location in a lovely setting and just a 2 minute walk from a world class distillery. The cottage was spacious, beautifully finished and had everything we could hope for to make it a wonderful holiday😊

United KingdomMinor problem with back door lock, self locking but we were informed of this and it didn't cause us any difficulties. Other issues - the shower was more of a tepid trickle but there was a notice to tell us why - because the storage heater controls were illuminated we assumed they were turned on and only later realised that the power had to be turned on separately
