Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Close to Aberavon's wonderful beaches and promenade, yet far enough away to be quiet, Pub, cafe's. cinema, sports centre and small selection of shops within walking distance, The house had all the amenities we needed and private parking is always a bonus. Communication from Fiona was great as always. We will be back.

We have stayed a number of times at Driftmark and find it spot on for us. Fantastic location, so close to the beach and promenade, yet tucked away and quiet. Wine and milk on arrival with all the facilities you need. Fiona is great on communication. We will be back again.

We had a disabled person with us and all the shower rooms are on the second floor so we struggled a bit with that (but nothing that the hosts could have done to improve this obviously), just a warning to others. There is a bedroom on the ground floor which is very helpful in this respect.
The location was wonderful for people with dogs especially because the property is right opposite the part of the beach which in the summer is open to dog walking. Also great for runners as it next to the promenade.

Wasn't so much a dislike - as we managed. Small dining table seated 6 - couldn't all be seated together indoors. Big enough table to all be seated outdoors though.
Great location. Comfortable bedrooms. Bright spacious living room. Extra sitting area in the kitchen/dinner

With exception to the master bedroom, could do with some hanging space for clothes in the other bedrooms as there isn’t any at the moment. Need to sort out a working remote control for the lounge. If it were to rain, and a family decided to stay in, the lounge is a nice space, but the TV didn’t work as there was no connection. Maybe a DVD player with some films could be an option?
Excellent location Comfortable beds Dog friendly Host was easily contactable and gave lots of good recommendations for places to eat

Wish we could have stayed for longer
Had a lovely stay in this lovely home right by the sea. Great location. Was fortunate with the weather so we had some lovely cold romantic walks along the promenade. The house was very clean & stylish, with a good WiFi connection throughout the house for us despite it being a large house. Fiona the host was really helpful with anything we needed and would highly recommend staying here, I know we'll be coming back!
