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 KingdomIt was April and still cold and there was an issue with clunky noisy radiators, which was addressed very quickly but left part of the flat a bit cold. Mornings we needed to use the extra heater, and the main room heated up quickly. The main annoyance was the TV. We couldn't get mainstream TV working. Only wifi streaming. And if one of the children used wifi the TV went off. With young children weren't going anywhere in the evening and TV is important.
We stayed 4 nights in the ground floor Kerrycroy bay apartment. I'm disabled and the ground floor suited my needs. However there were a few steps up into the apartment and into each bedroom. Not too problematic although I feel this should be mentioned in the description. The location here is good. Right on the seafront and there are bus stops also just outside for the car-less. The island bus service is great with a half hourly service to Rothesay and shops, hourly round to the amazing Ettrick Bay. The apartment is generally nice. Very clean. Overall I was happy. The kitchen is great and fully equipped for self catering a family. Bedrooms comfortable although we were a bit short of pillows and bedding as my daughter chose to sleep in the twin room with the two children meaning we had to use the fold down bed.

United KingdomThe swing and slide set in the garden is well used and now needing replaced as bits are missing making it a unsafe. We found the apartment a little cold at night. This led to condensation on the windows in the morning. We were able to deal with this by opening windows, wiping etc, but in the longer term windows will need addressed. Although undesirable, it didn't affect our stay and we have booked up again already.
A perfect location for our family to explore the local area on foot and bikes. We loved seeing the ferry coming into port from our window. The area is quiet and close to a shop and swing park. We have already booked to come back in July and October! Great communication and welcome from hosts, Lynn and her husband. Great value for money, the apartmen5 has everything you need!

United KingdomThe central heating went off on occasion and had to be 'rebooted' by the owners as it relies on wi-fi. They did this as soon as we contacted them. The statement that "this apartment features a washing machine" is misleading. There is no washing machine in the apartment. It is located in a garden shed and is presumably for all the apartments to use. The tumble dryer was out of use. We had to dry clothes on a flimsy rack we found in the shed. Not a great way to spend a rainy Saturday evening with the heating going down at the same time.
1 Marine Place is superbly located less than a mile from the ferry port and town at Rothesay. We stayed in the ground floor Scalpsie Bay apartment which was large, comfortable, well furnished, attractively decorated and had great sea views from both bedroom and dining / living room. The bed was very good. The separate bathroom had a modern shower. Parking was easy and convenient.

A grand villa by the sea divided into large,comfortable apartments with bigger than expected living area. Superb sea views across to the mainland and down to Rothesay harbour about a mile away. Buses into & away from town can be caught a minutes walk away. All the facilities you could possibly need are provided for in the apartments and everything is immaculately clean.Our hosts kept in contact before & on arrival to make sure everything was ok
