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.).

United KingdomNo issues I can think of!
Mike & Jenny's place was such a great find, a massive studio with all the amenities you could need and a lovely garden to sit in overlooking that incredible ocean view! The accommodation is easy to find, well located, just above the only restaurant in town and 1 minute from the beach. I didn't meet Mike, but Jenny was very helpful and sweet! The bed was comfortable, the kitchen had everything I needed to cook and the shower was hot with good pressure. All in all a lovely stay.

CanadaOverall all good. Possibly the owners could check the bathroom plumbing because on an occasion some musty smell could be detected. Nothing persistent. Good that with the door to the bathroom closed and a small opening window in the toilet, it didn't spread.
Very spacious quiet accommodation on a residential street with a fabulous view to the ocean, beach, and rocks. Separate entrance to the suite. Warm welcome from the hosts. Very close to Kaka's restaurants, shops, down an alleyway. Start of walking trails withing walking distance. Thanks for a lovely stay

New ZealandSlight walk to the front of the property then few steps down to front door. Not an issue really a problem. Hosts get up very early in the morning to go to work. They are generally very quiet but still hear them if niot deep asleep. Otherwise they are really quiet and amazing to be hosted by.
Awesone place to stay, hosts are lovely and genuine kiwi people. Big room, very clean. Comfy and warm queen size bed. Great kitchen facilities including induction cooktop, microwave, electric frying pan, rice cooker, toastie machine and coffee pod machine. Good size fridge with freezer.. Great view of the ocean. Blackout curtains keeps room really dark. Great water pressure in the shower. Off street parking. Private steps down to the beach/ main road/ cafe. Big TV screen.
