How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewVery clean and tidy, and had all the bits we needed. We arrived at night for into the lock box easily, opened the door and found everything we needed. In the morning woke up and opened the curtains and there spread out in front of us was a magnificent view of the marina. Contacted the owners to ask a favour and not only did they say yes they encouraged us to use their facilities for breakfast.
I'm a big guy and found the double bed a bit small for my frame, but even saying that they must have been comfy, as I had a good night's sleep.

Verified reviewWe liked the location very much. It was very relaxing watching the boats come and go. The annex was warm and cosy and had good facilities.
We found out on our second day that most of the breakfast supplies were in a cupboard above the refrigerator so didn't use them. On the sheet we printed out from Booking.com it said that no meal was included so didn't look for supplies. A note left to tell us that they were there would have been useful.

Verified reviewWe had a lovely night away at the Boathouse. Perfect for a relaxing time right on the water front. We loved the space, how tidy it was and a stocked fridge and pantry of milk, yoghurt, fruit, butter, cereal and spreads. The bed was also super comfy! Thanks so much for having us to stay at your gorgeous property.

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful stay at this lovely place facing the marina. Waking up to views of the water and boats was just amazing – truly a peaceful and picturesque setting. Inside, everything was clean, tidy, and well-maintained. Both bedrooms had their own en-suites, which was a great touch and made the stay even more comfortable. Collette was absolutely lovely and welcoming, and Andy was prompt and clear with all his communication. Thank you so much for sharing your place with us – we’d love to come back!

Especially owner family is so kindly and friendly. The living room, two beds and bathroom with showers in each room is beautiful and comfortable. In front of the house, there is a road and very calm. We stayed wonderful holiday.
