Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

CanadaNothing, everything was absolutely beyond our expectations!
Incredibly private, quiet, cozy, comfortable, and special. This apartment is on a pretty little farm with ducks, chickens, all sorts of birds, and pleasant wildlife all around. We were incredibly surprised by how spacious and clean the apartment was. After a long day of driving, this stay had everything we needed to relax and unwind, including a beautiful view with nice cushions for the patio chairs, a very huge room, and a very big and toasty shower. I cannot recommend this place enough!

CanadaThe room was spacious and very clean. Small but well presented kitchen. Bathroom and shower area was huge. The guesthouse is located just off the ring road. We had a very relaxing stay after spending a day on the road. Check in was very easy. The host sent the instructions via message.7

United StatesWhen I looked at the pictures on Booking.com site I got the impression that it is a single house in the middle of nowhere. In reality it turned out to be a first floor of a two-storage house. There was a flat on the second floor, which did not spoil our stay any way.
It is a quiet and peaceful place with a nice view.

United StatesSome portions of the barn where we were staying was still looking rather barn-like and rough and abandoned. If my mind thought about the space and rooms behind the locked door in the back of our room, it could feel sort of unsettling. I tried not to think about what was behind the door, and we were very comfortable. Having a couple eggs and some milk in the fridge would haven been welcome in the morning since there is not a grocery store near, and breakfast is not served.
We drive through a wind storm to get there. Once we arrived our room was snug and very protected from elements. It was a clean haven with amazing views. Sheep walked past our glass doors. It was quiet, clean and spacious.

Chinaif there is a sign in front of the house would be even better for guests, becuase the house look like desolated and nobody inside. the fact is it is a re-used for guesthouse room only, no use for second flour and other part of the house, there is no light in the night if you just arrived and will feel afriad wonder if wrong place
this is the greatest guesthouse i had stayed in iceland for this trip. the room is super, clean and big, furnitures are brand new and the bed is quite confortable. we enjoy the big table for dinner and breakfast. quick and easy check in. nice but simple yard with desk and table for sunshine and afternoon tea.
