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 KingdomThe daily rate for short stays is much higher than for longer stays. There may be good reasons for this in that the cleaning costs remain the same however long the stay. However, the availability of the house may be what is preventing the client from booking a longer stay and it is frustrating in those circumstances to be paying a very high daily rate when you wanted to stay longer and would have booked for longer at a cheaper rate if it had been available.
We were travelling with my 94 year old mother with limited mobility. Ralph went above and beyond in meeting her needs, providing a raised toilet seat and frame, a shower seat, and a wing backed armchair for my mother’s use. We loved being so close to a pebble beach on a secluded bay, perfect for swimming and paddle boarding. We took a boat trip from Oban with my mother. My husband and I hired bikes and cycled on Lismore island. We walked to the Pierhouse Hotel to eat one evening. The house had everything we needed and was beautifully styled with lovely views out to sea. We would have no hesitation in returning for a longer stay.

NetherlandsA beautiful cottage, very cozy feeling and they have thought of everything. The cottage is well equipped and very clean. The location is perfect, gives you the feeling that you are far into nature but actually you are pretty close to everything you need. The owners are easy to get in touch with and are willing to accommodate you when you ask for something. We would have loved to stay longer but unfortunately for us the cottage was booked the next day. We will definitely come back if we have the chance.

United KingdomIdeally, an additional (small) sharp knife for preparing vegetables would have been nice.
It's a lovely position with ever changing views of the sea and a walk from the door that was enjoyed by us all. There were five adults in our party and the property had lots of space, especially in the living area. Everything we needed had been provided and there was plenty of crockery, glasses and cutlery. When we had a problem with the woodburner the owner came to help and the problem was soon sorted.

United KingdomGorgeous cottage with beautiful views and lovely walk into the village, 10 Mins along the single track road or half and hour or so along the beach and onto a scenic footpath around the headland. Extremely tranquil location, but with a delicious fish restaurant and bar just a short walk.

United KingdomCleanliness was an issue, though the host dealt promptly with a couple of immediate problems. We later found the oven to be dirty. Overall, furnishings a bit tired looking. And the TV was dangerously propped on a wicker box.
The location was fantastic.
