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.).

The studio was in a great location and easily accessed up a steep road from oban center, the space was well organised and the bathroom was a good size with a nice shower. Little treats and water left on the bed and in the fridge were lovely and communication was quick.

United KingdomAccess to property was up a very steep hill and only on foot. Car had to be parked at the bottom of the hill and cases carried or wheeled up. Not suitable for elderly or disabled. Facilities were adequate for one night.

FranceNo way it could be changed but it is a steep old walk from the car parking to the front door. Could it be possible to allow guests to drive up to unload and load their cars and then leave the car in the parking area?
The owners certainly made the most of the available space, but it was a bit tight in places, and we are not fans of glass doors to the toilet/shower room. Warm and cosy though for a short stay. Location good to get into town.

United KingdomThe bed was quite hard and not very comfortable. We only stayed one night so this was not much of an issue.
Beautifully set up little flat, everything you need plus some nice bonuses. There were a couple of beers and cans of gin and tonic in the fridge, some milk for tea and coffee, little cereal boxes and bars - so many lovely touches! Everything clean and comfortable. There is a little terrace and a gate leading to Pulpit Hill viewpoint in the garden, both of which offered incredible views of the bay. We were lucky to catch a beautiful sunset and it was unforgettable. Easy 20 minute walk down to the harbour. We took taxis to the accommodation since it's uphill but they were cheap (£4) and plentiful. The property is in the basement of the host's house, but it still felt private.

United KingdomOne small room, only one comfy chair. Breakfast high chairs at bar very uncomfortable. There was a microwave but nothing to use to cook porridge in the microwave.
Owners were friendly and helpful, as they first asked us to park at the bottom of a very steep hill, but then moved their car so we were nearer the accomodation, and helped us with our cases.
