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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

PolandWe don't have any specific suggestions. The only suggestion we could make is to optionally add a device in the room that can generate light air movement - for people who don't want to use air conditioning during the night :-)
Beautifully located flat, on the first floor (access by stairs), very clean, hosts nice and hospitable. Very well equipped kitchen. Peace and quiet, good starting point for nearby towns and attractions.

CroatiaNothing really.
We were looking for a quiet place to sleep over on our way from Malaga to Cordoba so we booked this place. It turned out that Villanueva Del Trabuco is a charming place, the accomodation was nice, especially the charming courtyard. I could picture myself spending there longer time and go exploring the area, especially the mountains. Hosts were extremly helpful and kind, giving us detailed road instructions. I forgot my ring at the property and they were willing to send it to me by mail.

United KingdomI had a lovely 2 night stay. The studio is very large with a really well appointed kitchen area, spotless bathroom, table and chairs for dining/work, sofa for relaxing and the bed is tucked away at the far end of the large space. The grounds are lovely and the house is located a couple of minutes away from the nearest town (which is also very nice). The surrounding area is spectacular with incredible views and walks. The owners are lovely too!

SpainIt is very hard to say anything negative. The only thing would be the pillows were too hard, but that is a question of taste.
The view is spectacular. Very relaxing, surrounded by nature, and just a short 20min stroll into the centre. Very welcoming hosts. Large clean space with everything you need.

SpainNothing. It was perfect for our needs.
We liked the overall design and layout of the apartment. It was functional and we'll equipped. It was been clean. The bed and sofa were really comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. It was a fantastic place to stay on our vuelta de Andalusia de Sur. We decided to descend into the valley where Villanueva de Trabuco was located to create a shortcut and easier riding. We glad we did! We especially loved the position and view looking up at the nearby sierras. Gareth was very helpful chatty and friendly to both myself and my son. We highly recommend staying there.
