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.).

SingaporeIt's hard to put my finger on it but it seems like the room is clean in some areas and dirty in others. It's probably because it's managed by an older couple but the toilet was stained very badly from the previous guest and it was not cleaned. Also a clear suggestion to rubber proof the shower because I cut myself on one of the sharp edges when I was stepping out of the shower.
Very interesting experience of staying on a farmhouse. The room was definitely better furnished than what I expect. The bed was super comfy and the sheets are very very clean.

ItalyThe host is super friendly. The location is a bit out of the way, but the mountain views are amazing and the place is very peaceful. There are also two cute little lambs on the farm, though you can't get too close. Overall, it's a great spot to relax. Highly recommend!

We were in a cottage which was very cute. Kitchen is small but ok equipped, bathrooms nice, clean and warm. Attention to detail. As the property is very isolated there is both perfect silence but also long bumpy road

If there was an option to give more than 10 rating, we would have given it. This place is soo peaceful, the host is super sweet and we had such an amazing time that we never wanted to leave the place. We saw northern lights with red flare since there was no light pollution. The host even let us chase his sheep. Awesome and lovely place.

PolandLast 8 kms of access road to the property is a gravel road, but this is manageable. However, there was a 18 kms stretch of gravel road on the 36 kms Laxárdalsvegur road, which was very bad. It seems that there is some construction going on there and hence road condition is very bad. In order to avoid this 18kms stretch, it's recommended that you continue down the ring road until little before Bifröst and then take the Vestfjarðavegur road to go up.
The house is nice & cozy. It has a bit of an antique feel to it due to the furniture. The rooms are clean and tidy. It has a fully equipped kitchen where you can cook your meals. The bathroom is also very clean. The host is very nice and friendly. He explained about different things that we could do in West Iceland. The location is also good.

GreeceOne of the cutest places we stayed during our tour. We had a little balcony were we made our breakfast and dinner. The room has a microwave, a toaster and a mini fridge. We absolutely love it. On top of that, the host took his time to show us where to go for the rest of our tour and gave us a map of the peninsula. We also got to see the Northern Lights which was an amazing experience.
