How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

No separate lounge area but this wasn't really an issue as we were out for most of the time.
Great location, quiet, town centre was walkable, decorated to a good standard, nice quirks, modern bathroom and kitchen. Our privacy was respected, and there was a great secluded outside space.

If we were to be picky, we’d say that noise carries a little bit from the main house. It didn’t really affect us though.
Well situated for exploring Totnes, clean, comfortable and well equipped . Coffee, teas, milk and biscuits on arrival were much appreciated.

The steps weren't a problem for me but may make the property unsuitable for some..
Flat has it's own entrance and is exceptionally well furnished and decorated. It's charming and comfortable. Lovely bathroom and kitchen area. I visited in winter so didn't use the little outdoor courtyard but this could be a nice feature in summer. Check in was easy.- owner allowed me to check in early to drop of my bags as I was travelling by train The flat is just a few minutes away from shops- the narrows- which lead onto the high street. Totnes has some good shops and cafes and interesting old buildings. Market Friday and Saturday. Excellent independent supermarket close by. No breakfast provided but there's a small kitchen area, also cafes and the well stocked independent supermarket just a few minutes away.

A lovely stay. Lucinda was friendly and helpful after booking. Check in was straightforward and easy. Location is fantastic, less than a five minute walk into Totnes town centre. Flat had everything necessary and lots of lovely extra touches. Bed was super comfy! We couldn't have asked for anything better. Thank you Lucinda!

Parking for non-residents is difficult; it is only available between 6pm and 9am on weekdays. The steps up to the property are uneven and quite steep, and the handrail is wobbly.
Located a short walk into Totnes, which very helpful. Also near long-term car parks. Very quiet and peaceful place.

The only thing I had a slight issue with was the pillows, BUT I am very specific and used to travel with my own pillows everywhere. So this really isn’t a complaint, I should have brought my own pillows. My husband was very happy with the pillows and had a great nights sleep.
The decor, the location, the cleanliness
