Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United Statesit was perfect
The owners creatively converted a lovely old chapel into a B and B----sitting on the edge of a cliff overlooking the phenomenal Halifax harbor. The sunrise view from our window was magnificent along with seabirds circling over the water and yachts sailing by. The owners were warm, and helpful--breakfasts were delicious. We enjoyed every moment ! Highly recommended !

CanadaThe only thing was the parking was a little tight if you or other guest have a larger vehicle but there are some options if need be and the owners would be flexible to find a solution. On Booking.com it stated Beach front...no beach front or beach in walking distance.
The owners, Eva and Tom made you feel you at home and gave us a warm welcome when we arrived. They also were very helpful when ask on various places to visit and local coffee houses. The home is actually like the pictures but even better in real life. Me and my partner spoiled ourself for the first time to a 5 Star Bed and Breakfast and that what we experienced for those who really can't afford it all the time...IT WAS AMAZING. It is also very quiet and peaceful to unwind at the end of the day or wake up to amazing view of the water from different sitting areas. Thank you for our excape from a busy life and making our trip memorable.

United StatesOur only regret is that due to the flight cancellation we were only able to spend one night instead of two.
Location is perfect - on Ferguson Bay and outside central Halifax. Quiet, peaceful, and scenic. Cooked to order breakfasts delivered to your room. Eva and Tom were wonderful and very accommodating hosts. In fact, our flight from NY was cancelled so we had to drive up, thereby missing our first night, and they did not charge us for the cancellation. The weather was great so we enjoyed the views from the deck.

United StatesNo AC, but there was a ceiling fan, and we kept all the screened windows open for the cool sea breeze.
Just gorgeous location overlooking the ocean from a high hillside; we spent hours gazing from our window in our room - watching the boats go by, and taking joy in the birds, chipmunks, and a resident raccoon who nightly roamed the deck below us. The room was sparkling clean and the breakfasts were made to order, delivered to our room, and delicious! The innkeepers are delightful! The pool is worth noting (though we didn’t use it). It perches like an infinity pool overlooking the sea and is heated for your comfort.
