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.).

CanadaAlthough the listed checkout time was 10:00 AM, we were pressured to leave around 9:00 AM. We rushed as the male owner knocked on both the bedroom and bathroom door and requested us to leave soon, so we ended up leaving by 9:15. Had we known the actual expected checkout time was earlier, we would have definitely left early. Other than that, the owners were overall kind and friendly, and the house was gorgeous.
The location is absolutely stunning; peaceful, pristine, and the perfect place to relax. The owners were friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our room was clean, cozy, and we really appreciated the quiet surroundings. A special thank you to the female owner, who was extremely kind and accommodating. She went out of her way to help us with the food we brought, even though the guesthouse didn’t have a kitchen. We’re very grateful for her generosity and hospitality.

LithuaniaThe microwave to warm up some food would be very useful. The shower upstairs were the rooms are was not working, so the only one downstairs was available. However, we did not run into other guests so it was fine. Walls are thin, so if not whispering the other quests were hearable.
Very welcoming hosts and beautiful house. We really liked how well the room was equiped with shelves and lighting. One can trully feel that the guests comfort was in mind by the owners. Room was clean and great thing that it had a sink. Beds were comfy, there were no noises coming from the outside.

GermanyThe owners can not do anything about it, but it is good to know that a quite strong unpleasant smell of food waste is in the air all around the Guesthouse probably due to a fish factory nearby. We did not really get used to it, which was a downside of our stay, especially during the night. No kitchen, no cooking allowed.
Lovely couple and a beautiful wooden house! Beds are comfortable and everything is clean. We enjoyed the stay.

United StatesThe only issue I had was the fact that the town had nowhere open to grab food. I showed up at 8:30 in November so I kind of did that to myself 😂 but after 7:30ish in the off season, make sure you bring snacks with you. I had some tea to power me through til bedtime.
The man who oversaw it was incredibly wonderful! He was so kind, showed me everything I needed to know about the house. He had a coffee and tea setup. It’s perfect for solo travelers going in passing. HIGHLY recommend staying with these folks because they’re so kind.
