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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomVery minor gripe. Map and signage of property wasn't as easy as it could have been to find the right apartment within the complex. Especially when trying to find it with a paper map in the pouring rain.
Superb apartment, in a stunning location. Very well equipped, comfortable and extremely quiet. Perfect location for exploring the area. Waking up to an amazing view over Torbay was very special. Easy walk into Brixham and quality pub close by. Easy, secure, allocated parking on site. Courtesy call from the company was appreciated.

United KingdomI can't think of anything I didn't like. You just have to make sure that you have enough set aside for the deposit, which is there in case of damage to the property. That isn't a complaint, more of a heads up for anyone booking the property.
The location was excellent and the apartment was very homely. The staff were also at hand to provide support and were very friendly and welcoming. Also, parking was clear and just a short walk to the apartment.

United KingdomI couldn't get the tv in the bedroom to work. It turned on but got no signal on any of the source channels. I tried everything. There was a total lack of drawer space, especially in the 2nd bedroom. We had to lay my daughter's clothes out on the spare bed, so that was the only couple of disappointing issues.
Like the apartments and heated swimming pool and love the views.

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike.
I loved the fact it was fully equipped, clean, light and airy, comfortable and beautiful location too. The large balcony was bliss and they even provide a barbecue for people to use. It was gated entrance, which makes you feel safer and also very peaceful the whole time.

Stunning location with fantastic views, Very quiet both in the day and night. Beds were really good and made for a relaxing sleep, Everything needed within the apartment that you would find at home, Great shower with plenty of hot water very clean and bright throughout. Good walking right on the doorstep with an easy walk into Brixham, with a couple of small beaches very close and easily reached. Would we go again most definitely....

Fantastic location! Wonderful walks and views. So much to do without having to go far. Nice to be able to go for 4 nights rather than a full week.
