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.).

This was an exceptional place to stay. Beautifully clean, everything the five of us could have needed, owners who couldn't have been more helpful or responsive on-line (we didn't meet them and didn't need to) and a wonderful location - do not be taken in by the road at the front of the house because the sea is behind it! Very easy access to central Inverness

United KingdomI couldn’t find an extra pillow for my bed, and the one I did have was a bit flat. Some plumbing issues, especially in the upstairs bathroom which created a smell. Shower was quite small.
Really spacious and well designed house. Really clean and bright inside. Coffee/tea and porridge was there which was super. We did really enjoy the house.

United StatesIt is just a little tricky to find and the description was a bit unclear how close to the water. Also, having to change the thermostat was not easy since you had to contact the property owner to do it remotely. If you wanted to do it in the middle of the night or early morning you had to hope the owner was checking messages. She was responsive though.
The cottage is comfortable but cozy. It had a lot of charm and located near a pier/lock that was lovely to visit. It had all the amenities needed to be comfortable.

United KingdomThere was a rather busy road in front of the house. I could hear cars passing from the bedroom. There is also a railroad at the back of the house but trains rarely pass. I felt rather cold for a while after I checked into the property. It took a while to figure out how to warm the place. I wasn't sure about parking on the road in front of the house as cars use the road continuously. I left the car in the schoolyard as recommended by the hosts. Although this was around 6pm. School has placed a note banning parking here until 8pm. This was a bit confusing but in the end I didn't experience any problems.
Location of the property was amazing being so close to Caledonian Canal Sealock. The area around Sealock is so beautiful place. There are some very nice walks alongside the canal and by the sea. Walking around here was very enjoyable.I didn't walk or drive to town from here so can't comment how easy that access is. House is big, very clean and orderly. Has lots of space. A family with kids would be very comfortable.

United KingdomThe pictures of the house are wildly deceiving, we were expecting a cottage on the water front as per the multiple pictures on the profile, instead it was a cottage on a busy main road. Parking is not clear, I tried phoning the owner twice and left a voicemail asking for guidance to park and no one got back to me. The towel in the upstairs bathroom had a smear of what looked like toothpaste on it. Check out was at 10am, at 9:50am there was someone peering into the dining room window from outside which we could only presume was the cleaner. 10am on the dot the cleaner was making her way into the house telling us we had to leave now because there was going to be an early check in and would be arriving soon. I had requested an early check in myself and was offered a 2pm rather than the stated 3pm which I appreciated at the time. We gathered our things and left to then watch 3 of the cleaners children pile into the house. As we drove away we saw the kids carrying cartons of juice that we had left into thier car. Don't mind that, better than it going to waste but wait until we are out of sight atleast. We all felt rushed and put out. Overall it wasn't a great experience from the moment we arrived and certainly won't be returning.
The interior was lovely and the bed comfortable
