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.).

ChileThe WiFi was intermittent at times, usually when there was a storm. A common problem everywhere and especially on the island and not easy to fix. I just had to come to the realization that my first priority was to relax and enjoy the islands and not to keep in contact continually.
The staff were all exceptionally helpful and friendly. Location was great. Just out of the bustle of tourist town but within 2 blocks of 5 or 6 great restaurants. The room we had had a big deck with a sea view, great for relaxing. Air conditioning was more than up to the task and room had a mini bar fridge. Two pools were refreshing and kept very clean. Breakfast was very good albeit without much changes from day to day. We stayed 12 days, more than the usual for Galapagos, and were very happy with our choice of accommodation.

United StatesEverything was great
We needed a relaxing and peaceful accommodation to take a few days to rest and reset half way through our Galapagos island hopping and the Pearl B&B was exactly what my family needed. The staff went above and beyond to help make our stay amazing. We had the apartment which consisted of two bedrooms, living room kitchen combo as well as a large bathroom. The kitchen was the most fully equipped kitchen we came across our whole stay in the Galapagos. The delicious breakfast included fruit from their trees and plenty of eggs and bread treats. The pools were perfect and the family enjoyed swimming all day long. One pool even had a sun cover which was a nice treat from the strong sun. The walk to the main strip was super fast, only a few blocks to all the restaurants. The manager arranged our inter island boat trip as well as the early taxi to the pier which was very helpful. Overall our stay saved our vacation because we were so exhausted from all our adventures we were able to continue after such a peaceful rest.

Australia1) Breakfast was below average. Bun and a fried egg. Jam was included but no bread to eat with. The fruit juice was tasteless and watery. 2) Excursions were too pricey. Just to get to San Cristobal Island was USD 250 per person (USD 1000 for family of four) which was just walking along the beach and have not so tasty lunch (rice, lentils, and one small piece of fried chicken). Obviously, they kept a big cut on this as the guide said he charges only USD 50 per person for the same route. Should have organized to go the hills rather than beach walk. 3) One day we went early on an excursion, and they made us pack lunches. One ham roll only, no fruit, no water or juice. The lunch was inadequate.
Nothing to say.

United StatesPrior to booking, I looked at many different hotels. There are so many hotels/hostels in this town, and I really hesitated on The Pear because it was $25 over my budget per night. I justified that because there were 2 beautiful pools it would save us in-town activity fees (we’d swim more and do less paid things in town). 1 of the pool was broken, and the other was pretty full of bugs. We asked for a pool net and cleaned it the best we could and still swam. Booking.com got all my info from me when I made the booking; how I was going to pay (credit card), and I checked out knowing the amount I was being charged. When I got there, they wanted an additional $15/night for ‘bank taxes’ because I used a credit card. I was so upset. I had already paid $25 more than I could afford, but now it was $40 more and I had said online I was paying with a credit card so they should’ve told me on booking.com that it would be that price. In the room, the ac unit is incredibly weak not reaching the 2-bedrooms (1 unit for the whole house), the kitchen is very minimal; 1 pot, a few random dishes, no paper towels, hand towels, soap, broom, etc. No TV in the whole 2-bedroom place. There are daddy-long-leg spiders spread out throughout the house. I sat on the bed and cried like a baby. I felt very douped with the pools, asking to pay more when I got there, the kitchen set up. I was paying so much for so little. Your money will go a lot farther at another location. It could be so charming.
Location was great. Very close to the Main Street, restaurants, etc. We weren’t able to stay for the included breakfast.
