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.).

The owners were extremely helpful and friendly and the welcome pack was the best we have ever had with every care taken to accommodate someone who may arrive late and not been able to do any shopping. We would certainly recommend this property. The location was good and quiet.

Location is a quiet neighborhood away from the main part of town. The house was very clean and comfortable, and our host was very friendly. The snacks they provided for breakfast were great.

United StatesI can't think of a think we needed that Alex didn't provide. It was all very lovely.
This cottage is wonderfully appointed -- three bedrooms, three baths with full kitchen and living spaces. Our host, Alex, was so friendly and accommodating. The location is great. It's just a 10 minute drive from Stornaway in what feels like the quiet of a small neighborhood. We only wished we'd been able to stay longer!

United KingdomWe had a lovely, comfortable stay here. It was really clean and there was an excellent welcome pack. The owner met us and he was really friendly. My son had lost his bank card in the property, which was found and posted back to us. Great location for the early morning ferry from Stornaway. Would highly recommend.

United Kingdom4 guys on M/Bikes stayed for 1 night, the owner/host, Alex, could not have been more helpful and friendly! He offered willingly to give us a lift into Stornaway so we could have a meal and a drink etc. This was really appreciated. He told us not to be too bothered about getting away by 10am the next morning, lunchtime would be fine. Again this was very much appreciated. The house itself is comprehensively equipped with everything you may need and it really was a home from home. The lounge and bedrooms were very comfortable and we all slept well. The home is immaculate too. Plenty of parking space. The location is very peaceful and safe. The welcome pack was brilliant and totally unexpected! Again thank you very much, your kindness to total strangers who were basically customers was well above and beyond what you needed to provide but is certainly a great recommendation for the hospitality that the outer Hebrides is famous for. We would stay again any time and do recommend this place and the the owners to others without hesitation!
