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.).

QatarWonderful all around i would give 100 out of 10. You will find everything you need and the owner was extremely nice supportive and friendly. We got stuck in storm where we couldn’t go out anywhere that day. He invited us to some hot and cold spa nearby. He treated us like a family. One of the things we will never forget and wish we can thank you enough.

SwitzerlandNo real complaint. A few hours need to be invested to complete the work on the house. Like in all places we've seen in Iceland, you cannot get a completely dark room.
Hilmir was really nice and had lots of good recommendations for what to do and where to eat. He was very responsive. The property is spacious and located close to the center of the town.

SwitzerlandThere's no way of locking the bathroom door, and in one of the bedrooms we can't shut the door. Also the water in the shower was a bit temperamental. But this are just technicalities really. The space is absolutely perfect.
It's a very comfortable and beautiful place. There's all of the amenities we can possibly need. The host was a delight as well, very nice, helpful and comprehensive. Heated floor in the main entrance, café machines and drying and washing machines also available. It was a really a modern house with a comfy outlook. Comfortable beds and big nice dining table. We loved it.

IcelandMy recent stay at this villa was an absolute dream come true. From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was captivated by the stunning view that stretched over the entire town. It was a sight that took my breath away, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and tranquility. The villa itself was a haven of luxury, with every corner exuding elegance and style. The cozy fireplace added a touch of warmth and comfort, creating the perfect ambiance for relaxation. The furniture was nothing short of luxurious, providing the utmost comfort and sophistication. If you're looking for a memorable getaway with a view that will leave you speechless, this villa is an absolute must-visit.

SwitzerlandHowever, we were disappointed with the overall condition of the property, which did not match the description of a “Luxury Villa” on Booking. There were personal items left in the kitchen, including partially used food and medication, as well as a mess in several drawers. Additionally, the cleanliness was a concern; the villa was not as clean as we expected. The laundry room, where the washer and dryer are located, was in poor condition. While the owner did mention that the laundry room was still under construction, this information was only provided after I had already read the negative reviews, which was frustrating. The villa itself still appears to be under construction, and the bedrooms feel somewhat unfinished. There was a noticeable damp smell throughout the house, particularly in the bedrooms, which created an unpleasant atmosphere. There were also frequent fluctuations in the shower’s water temperature, ranging from cold to extremely hot; unfortunately, our child was burned, which was quite distressing. The synthetic bedding was not very comfortable, and one of the bedroom doors could not be shut properly. For a property advertised as “luxury,” these issues were quite surprising and disappointing. We rented what we believed would be a luxury villa, but it turned out to be more like an average apartment, similar to a typical Airbnb listing. Normally, we would have considered moving to a different accommodation, but it was peak season, and there were no suitable alternatives available. Overall, we feel quite disappointed and a bit misled. The villa does not meet the luxury standards described, and we believe the price should reflect its current condition and should be adjusted. At this moment we cannot recommend this “luxury” villa.
The location is nice and the views are great and beautiful. The landlord was friendly and approachable.
