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.).

SpainA couple of kitchen knives and a pair of scissors would come very handy. The shower drain is too slow so it overflows.
Beautifully decorated place, all clean and new. Sink in the room really useful. Cozy and comfortable.

HungaryA certain amount of food was left in the kitchen for a self-service breakfast. (There is no staff on site.) We were the last ones at 8.30am and there was hardly anything left, simply not enough for two people for a normal breakfast.
Comfortable, clean, at good location.

EstoniaIt’s important to take into account that there is only one shower for 4-5 rooms and a small kitchen. If there were other people, it could get really tight
outside building a bit old, but inside freshly renovated, clean, light...Its really exceeded my expectations. we were two couples in whole building, its really comfy and nice.

Czech RepublicVery simple accommodation, yet the bed was great. The room is quite small. For four adults and 4 pieces of luggage it was very tight. But it was enough for a short stay. Breakfast was sufficient. The kitchenette and the equipment are very nice. Unfortunately the fridge was very small, we had to leave some of the food in the car overnight. On warm days this would be a problem. There is practically nothing in the area. The local cafe was unfortunately closed in the evening/morning. We welcomed the possibility of coffee in the kitchenette. Anyway, thank you very much to the owner for everything.

Czech Republicno issues.
Smartly designed and maintained interior, comfortable beds, convenient bathrooms and breakfast room which is small for the house but if one can arrange its shared use with other guests, no problem there. Nice coffee on the ground floor unfortunately opening as we were leaving at 10:30. As is usual in Iceland you don't meet the host (all is beautifully informal) but feel cared for anyway.

United StatesThe only dislike had nothing to do with the host, but there was a group of guests that kinda of took over the space at breakfast. Kinda felt like we were a large family and everyone was grabbing for their fair share of food. All in all—we had a good breakfast—but had to sit up at a counter that was part of the serving area. (Just a small trivial complaint in a lovely stay).
Cute lodging —beautiful views. Good breakfast offerings. Friendly owner.

FranceBasic but very good. Klara guesthouse offers self-check in, rooms were spotlessly clean. Good hot shower and a small kitchen that is well-equipped. A great place to overnight if you need a break from the tent/are going to see the whales in dalvik the following morning. Communication from the host was very reactive. Our stay was exactly what we needed 😀

United StatesIt would have been great if there were a few more hooks and flat spaces to accommodate our things once we unpacked.
The guest house is lovingly cared for and was comfortable. We appreciated the small kitchen, which allowed us to prepare our breakfasts and dinner. Bonus that the grocery store was right around the corner! Ida was very friendly and knowledgeable, and makes a great cappuccino in the attached coffee shop! She kindly put us in the quietest room she had available when she found out that there was going to be a late-night music festival during our stay.
