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 reviewIt was a great little getaway cottage, everything we needed (after we figured out TV streaming LOL). We were so grateful that our pup was welcome to join us. We also liked the closeness of beach and restaurants.
As was mentioned, and it was only a very minor issue. was the small bathroom. I don't think anything can be improved there though, and we adapted happily.

Verified reviewIt was very close to the beach. The house was retro and cute. It was very clean.
The beds were so hard they were very uncomfortable. The front door wasn’t working correctly. Luckily we figured out we could use the back door. The manager said they are aware of this issue, but no one fixed it.
Thank you for taking time to share your feedback. The front door is functionality correctly, however, it is in direct sunlight and at times it can stick. Our rental manager informed you of this and you stated you had no issue using the back door. You are only one of two guests that experienced this issue all summer. Our price is on the lower end of rates for the area, unfortunately booking rentals for two days is rearely every economical due to the cost of cleaning the property. The cleaning cost is a flat rate so the more days you stay the lower the nightly rate. The full cost of staying at the property was disclosured prior to booking in order to allow you to make an informed decision about the cost relative to the value.

Verified reviewWonderful beach bungalow, just across the beach road. Nicely decorated and in very good condition. I especially appreciated the generously sized coffee cups. There was a good collection of kitchen accoutrements, including a four-sided box grater. The fridge had a great ice maker. A nice bookshelf in the kitchen had ample room to store provisions. Most rooms had a ceiling fan, creating a pleasant breeze. The bed was very comfortable. Thanks for renting your place! I would definitely stay here again!
Only one suggestion: it would be great to have a ceiling fan in the room with the washer and dryer, which gets direct afternoon sun.
