Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomSerendipity is an amazingly well renovated town house in the middle of Kirkcudbright, with access to all the delights that wonderful town holds. Ian and Louise have created and maintain to the highest standards, a self catering home from home which is spotlessly clean, exceedingly well equipped, stylish, comfortable and a delight to stay in. We already plan to return!

United KingdomThe shower in the main toilet (middle) didn't get hot enough. The pressure wasn't great either. This was really disappointing as either we all had to use the upstairs shower or some of us just had to cope with warmish water. Not ideal when there's 4-6 of you trying to get ready. The bottom left cooker hob wasn't working at all, which is not ideal if you are cooking a big meal or big morning fry-up. The batteries in the TV remote were done and no spare AAA to find around the house.
House was spotless clean and fully equipped with all essentials, beds were very comfortable, good location centrally in town and just a short walk to shops. It had all the little extra things that were a lovely touch; tissues in every room, airfresheners in the toilets, games and puzzles and even a box of yarn. Loved these things.

United KingdomReally nothing.
Absolutely fabulous house. Genuinely the best I have ever stayed in. We came as usual, our child and grandparents. The setup worked really well for us with all of us in different rooms. We never felt on top of each other. In good weather we loved the rear garden. The Serendipity was immaculate, every facility we could have needed. The location in the town centre is just perfect and ideal for nearby restaurants and festivities in the town. Close to the swimming pool and playground as well. For a small town, Kircudbright really does well in this regard which keeps us coming back. We used to camp but with the little ones now, I expect we will return again on our next visit to Galloway.

With 3 generations in one house we had the space to find our own corners when we needed to and wonderful social spaces to get together.we loved the patio garden and access from the kitchen.The beds and bedding were fantastic and all the furnishings felt comfortable.
