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 KingdomNo towels provided. Thought this was odd, particularly since I can't see anything on the booking.com info that makes that clear. Almost everywhere provides towels as standard these days, so it should be clear if that's not the case. Thought we were going to have to drive to Penrith to buy some, but thankfully found the Cancer Research shop in Keswick sells (new) towels. Would be better if the heating system had a timer, even if it was just to have a lower temperature at night. The cooker hood didn't seem to work. Our son used our en suite for showers as the shower over bath in his room had no curtain or screen.
Brilliant location close to the town centre. Comfortable and warm, generally well equipped. Great to have a parking space (yes, slightly awkward, but wasn't a problem at all). Lovely living space with bay window. Cosy blankets for snuggling up on the sofa.

IrelandNothing special. The only thing I could say is that the key box is at the back door so it was a bit confusing even though we had an instruction.
We had a great time staying there. The apartment was so warm and cosy. The rooms and both rooms were so clean. Literally, 3-minute walk from the main square where shops and restaurants are around. The parking at the back of the apartment was tight enough to park but we rented a compact size car so there was no issue parking there for us. Everything was perfect.

United KingdomThere were no apparent towels ( although a towel service of £20 was included ) after a call to owner we were informed there were 3 rather old bath towels in a drawer under the bed . It didn’t spoil our visit at all .
Beautifully clean and comfortable apartment, very near centre of Keswick , with the advantage of an allocated parking space . Would definitely recommend and would happily use again .

United KingdomThe only improvement I would suggest is that a shower curtain be installed in the bathroom so that the floor will not get splashed.
Excellent location. The property is only a few minutes walk from all the restaurants and shops in the town centre. Walking to the bus terminal takes about 10 minutes where to can find buses to most of the famous walking routes. The property itself is very spacious. It can sleep up to 4 people and has a big living room with an open kitchen. As there were only the 2 of us, the flat was roomy and comfortable. This is the second time we stayed in this property and most probably we are going to o use it again when we return to Keswick in future.

A lovely, spacious apartment, right in Keswick. The kitchen was well stocked with plates, glasses etc. Bed was comfy and the shower was lovely, warm, and had good pressure. The parking space was very handy as it was a nightmare to get parking, especially at the bank holiday. The host was very engaging, answering questions within minutes of me posting them. I will definitely stay here again.
