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.).

United KingdomWe were met outside by James who took us to our room and explained the services on offer. We had already booked a table at The Bay restaurant, so did not need food. However when we returned, we very much enjoyed the Whisky and Gin taster boards and played a card game in the Lounge. The bed was very comfortable and we loved the décor and facilities. The cooked breakfast was exceptional by using local produce which added to the taste. This is how B&B's should be run. Well done James & Kirsty a well deserved 10 out of 10.

Breakfast is ordered the night before. The best banana pancakes I have had. The room was huge, with one of the best beds we have slept in. So comfortable. The owners were lovely and friendly and gave us great tips on where to go. We loved that they had a license to serve alcohol so it was like a Happy Hour on the verandah when we arrived and met the other guests.

United KingdomI wouldn’t say I didn’t like it as everything was really cool and you can see it from my pictures, but for personal 10 I would like to have a newer mattress (although current one is good and bed linen is fantastic!) and if being capricious - coffee machine at the place, like nespresso as it is quite difficult in some areas to find decent coffee in coffee shops. As of mattresses - I found it’s relevant to all places I stayed at during my trip at NC 500 in 2024 within the price range of 80-150£ per night.
Sense of living in a big house with several rooms and amenities. Wonderful hosts with plentiful of suggestions of what to do in the area! I followed these instructions and it made my two days of travelling along NC500 - from places where to eat, routes to take and extra activities like surfing as well. The place is unique and I think one of the best in the area. Big thanks to James and Kirsty! I would totally recommend to friends and would consider for my next stay too to chat with these wonderful hosts and share what’s new.

We needed a stopover from Norfolk to Orkney, we stumbled across this exceptional place on booking.com. Wow I'm so glad we did it was amazing. The hosts are super attentive without being intrusive. The accommodations are superb with your own little balcony. There's chickens that come to say hello in the morning too 😊 and of course there's free range eggs on the menu and to buy if you wish. We arrived late and hadn't eaten, we already knew about the charcuterie board as we'd seen it on the site. To be fair we did think oh that seems a little expensive. Anyway we ordered it with some house cocktails, it was superb, I won't spoil it for you but my recommendation is go for it you will not be disappointed. Bedtime!! Now you're in for a real treat, the bedding and mattress will put everywhere you've stayed before to shame!! I'll leave it with you... Breakfast is stunning do take the haggis even if you've never had it before!! All in all this is one of the very best bed and breakfasts we have ever stayed at and we're extensively travelled in the Uk.
