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 KingdomOnly negative was the small double bed. It appeared to have been repaired. Our daughter and granddaughter were concerned that it might break with 2 in the bed. One decided to use one of the futons instead!

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike, it was everything that we needed and more.
We loved that the space had everything we needed and was spacious/comfortable. Our hosts were so accommodating and really put us at ease when travelling for the first time with an infant by allowing us to check in earlier and by having everything we needed in the kitchen area for feeds. The location was also perfect due to the close proximity to the venue we were visiting. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

GermanyThe knives in the kitchen are a disaster, completely blunt, and you can't cut anything with them. The mattresses are very uncomfortable and worn.
The apartment was nice, clean, and very conveniently located. We didn't have a car, but there was a parking space right outside.

United KingdomBeds were a little uncomfortable at first (thin sprung mattresses, memory foam would have been nice), but didn't keep me awake once I got settled.
Excellent communication from the host, easy access, a quiet location (but less than 5 minutes from the pubs and Waitrose!) We didn't check in until 11:30pm and left at 10am, so didn't use the kitchen/TV/garden etc, but everything seemed fine. Spotlessly clean, plenty of books and games if you are bringing children. If we are ever working in the area again, we'll seek this place out!

United Kingdomnothing to dislike, just shower needs some attention.
Ideal location, parallel with the village. We stayed in a ground floor - ideal for parking and getting luggage/pram in and out. Great space, very kindly left us milk so we could make tea/coffee (that was also provided) Bathroom great, with shower (sealant could do with some attention) enough towels. Stayed in November - heating very effective. Large double bed was so comfy, access to small secure garden.. smaller double mattress not as comfy. Kitchen has everything you need. Wifi good. Great instructions from hosts. Will stay again.

United KingdomThe main security gate clearly isn't used however, the parking space was available. I found the mattress in the main bedroom to be a little thin, but still slept OK.
Flexible on "Check In" time Everything was clean, tidy, and looked "New". Connection to the Wi-Fi simple and worked. Everything I thought I might need was there, even some milk - not sure if this is part of the standard welcome!
