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 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):
- 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.).

Had an absolutely fabulous stay at North of Avon B&B Suites! A.J. is an unparalleled host, who puts his guests’ comfort first and foremost. He graciously accommodated a last-minute request on my part the morning of our arrival that greatly enhanced the quality of my rest during our four-night stay (thank you, again, A.J.!). The B&B is in an ideal location for attending the Stratford Festival; on a quiet residential street, yet in easy walking distance of all theatres and numerous fine restaurants. Beds and furnishings were all high-end and very comfortable, and the kitchenette is well-equipped with dinnerware and glassware making ordering-in an option to dining out. Additionally, A.J. has a culinary background and his breakfasts are not to be missed, with each morning offering up a new and delightful surprise (his baked goods are heavenly!). My husband and I very much enjoyed conversing with fellow guests and sharing our theatre experiences. We will return!

AJ was an exceptional host, extremely friendly and recommended many great places for us to visit during our Stratford stay. The room was comfortable and big, equipped with everything we needed and then some, and the breakfast was varied and delicious. Had a wonderful time, loved talking with the others guests over breakfast as well.

We were happy to return to North of Avon after an excellent previous stay. And once again, we had a lovely time. Our host, A.J., is very helpful and welcoming. The suite includes a livingroom/kitchen with all the amenities. We were very comfortable and enjoyed a lovely breakfast in the dining room. We attended two plays at the Stratford Festival theatre and enjoyed talking to other guests over breakfast about the performances we had seen, sharing our experiences and making new friends. We'll be back!!

Can’t think of anything.
AJ was such a pleasant and friendly person. The house is beautifully decorated. We requested a room with 2 beds. Suite 3 was very spacious with a full bath, comfortable beds and a sitting area. So quiet for sleeping. Of course the location is perfect, a lovely walk along the river to the theatre area and Stratford historic centre.

The property was easy to get to. It was a 10 minute walk to the Avon Theatre and a 20 minute walk to the Festival Theatre. A.J. was knowledgeable about the plays and cooked a great breakfast. Highly recommend.

We stayed on the third floor. While the room was large, clean and very lovely - the steep climb to get to this room is a difficult one for seniors. I would like to return and perhaps stay in one of the other rooms.
Loved the location and the proximity to the theatres. The breakfast was excellent. A.J. was knowledgeable and went out of the way to provide us with information. Breakfast was great! A.J. was wonderful at communicating with us pre-visit. Thanks for everything.

This is a great BNB. The rooms are clean, spacious, and really comfortable. Great pop art on the walls in our suite. AJ makes great breakfasts with homemade preserves, salsas, baked goods, fritatas etc. Air conditioning worked well in 33 degree heat. Walking distance to the downtown in only 5 minutes (just over the bridge). The other guests were all theatre lovers. Exceeded our expectations.
