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.).

AustraliaA clothes airer/rack to hang wet washing on would be great.
Eagle Cottage has all the convenience of a modern home with the style and features of a historic cottage. It is very centrally located, with an easy 10 minute walk into town. Located up one flight of stairs, at the back of another building, it was quiet and peaceful with a nice outlook. We particularly liked the coat rack and bench in the front hall - easy to remove shoes and jackets. The bathroom and kitchen are modern, stylish and spacious, with everything we needed, including dishwasher and washing machine. Central heating was easy to use. Hosts were quick to respond to queries.

United KingdomWould have liked a casserole/baking dish in the kitchen. The steps up to the property could be an issue for anyone less mobile.
Very comfortable and cosy, clean and well equipped. Good location for walking into Penrith and also for touring the Lakes. We stayed 2 nights on our way up to the Scottish Highlands but wished we'd stayed longer!

United KingdomOne or two very minor things could be marginally better - a toilet roll holder? (Though it might spoil the beautiful lines of the lovely bathroom!). There is a loose handle on the 'bin' cupboard door which caught me out. Perhaps a larger drying rack (there are a only couple of rails on one of the radiators) to go with the washing machine? (Maybe there is one somewhere and I didn't find it.) The immediate surroundings are not inspiring (although it's handy for petrol!) but you're within walking distance of the centre of a popular resort town near the Lake District, so that's perfect really.
Superb quality apartment, fitted out with modern and high-spec appliances and furnishings. Spacious and well-organised. Communication was excellent with photos showing where to park etc. Plenty of hot water, good heating, excellent shower and wifi, comfortable bed. Parking is more than adequate. There is a microwave (not mentioned in the Booking.com details), in one of the cupboards. Very handy washing machine.

United KingdomThe steps up to the front door very steep - fine and understand that - but were icy a few times whilst we were there and the handle was far too low a height to make us feel very safe when walking up and down. Esp with the steps being very small in depth. The boiler was very effective and clearly very new - but was a bit too noisy for me (not the others who slept like angels!) in the middle of the night when it kicked in every now and then - It was VERY cold when we were there so it was doing its job!!
Location excellent - so quiet an area yet very quick walk into the town centre. The kitchen was a delight. The bedroom excellent and the bathroom fantastic. The central heating worked well and quickly (except in the front TV area where it was longer to get warm for some reason)

The apartment was fabulous. It was large, tastfully decorated & provided everything required, particularly in the kitchen, where often you don't have everything you need to easily cook & serve a meal. This had everything! The bathroom was well appointed, great water pressure & good light.
