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):
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 KingdomThere is absolutely nothing I didn't like.
I had a lovely self catering room with an en-suite bathroom. The B&B is in the centre of Musselburgh so is close to all amenities and the bus stop is just a few steps away making it very easy to travel into the City. The room was spacious, very tastefully decorated and is equipped with everything you need. I really enjoyed my stay and will most certainly return.

United KingdomRoom was very clean and very reasonably priced. Easy to find thanks to whatsapp instructions.. Beds were very comfortable. Plenty of towels and tea/coffee. Nice touch was fresh milk in the fridge. Definitely recommend. We stayed as a last minute booking for the fringe and was a 15 min taxi ride into centre although I'm pretty sure there's a bus to Edinburgh stops outside aswell. Couldn't be happier. Thank you very much!

United KingdomWhen you arrive at the property. You can simply collect the key from the drop box. It’s very peaceful and private. I had a really lovely stay at this hotel. Thank you :)
The room was really lovely and completely self contained. Very nicely put together with a cooking hob, fridge and a lovely dinning table and chairs. Very clean bathroom and comfort clean bed. The owner took the time to leave a tray with coffee and biscuits which is great after a long day of traveling.

United KingdomNo WiFi. But...they don't advertise it as being included. Everyone should already have 4G on their personal phone IF this is an essential element of your daily life.
The area suited me being near family. There are lots of bars and restaurants nearby. The room looked freshly painted and decorated. The bed was super comfortable, and the owners have thought about things that a guest would need. I'd stay here again and recommend. The shared bathroom was clean and tidy..

ChinaOnly the location, but I knew it was far from the city center anyway, but if you are here for the beach, it’s a good location with good value.
Jamie was very welcoming and friendly! The room is super clean and has everything you need. He maintains the rooms very well! The room is well contacted to the city center was public buses. If you don’t mind the distance to the city center, you would like to stay there!

United KingdomThe hot tap on the bathroom wash basin did not work as there was a leak on the pipework that had not been repaired. There were two small blood stains on the duvet cover. The property is advertised as B&B, but it is BnB. No breakfast is available. Only one small milk unit was provided. The location as shown on the Booking.com website is not accurate, nor is the address. It is listed as Musselburgh 128 but is actually 128 North High Street, Musselburgh. The location, as shown on your website, is on High St Musselburgh. This was inconvenient as we were looking for a place close to where our friends were staying, but ended up about 500m away from the location shown on your website, which was only 200m from our friend's house. I have some difficulty walking, so this was inconvenient. There is no reference to parking for the property, which is on-street only and is free only from 0830 - 1000 each morning. Although towels were provided, there was no dish towel, only a roll of kitchen paper, which is not very eco- friendly. The bathroom is very small, and the two part bathroom door was difficult to close from the inside and needs an additional handle on the inside, and possibly a lock for privacy.
The studio apartment was generally clean and appeared to be quite newly decorated. The bed was comfortable. The host Jamie was friendly.

United KingdomAlthough we thought we were going to a B&B no breakfast was available. Jamie offered to bring us a roll from the takeaway over the road but we could not go to it. He suggested the Weatherspoons around the corner. The room was cold and heating could not be used. The window was double glazed but did not fit properly into frame, hence the cold and noise from the high street traffic from 6-30 am.
No breakfast. We thought Musselburgh Links would be close to sea, it was not

United KingdomPrevious occupant must've been smoking as room smelt of tobacco smoke. Not owners fault obviously however could've been helped by opening the big windows prior to my stay which is what I did immediately. Was fine for me but the room was accessed by an outside stair. Lovely bath however I couldn't get the jets/spa function to work. Very little cutlery, think it was 2 forks, 2 knives but only 1 spoon.
Comfortable bed Great transport location and places to eat/shop/get takeaway Hob and oven, fridge

United KingdomIt was a little tricky to find, as a door on the high street leads through a walkway, then one approaches the accommodation by climbing an outdoor staircase. We couldn’t find the location as it wasn’t visible in google maps etc, but the host helpfully sent a video of the view across the street to help us find it.
Host was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Room and shared bathroom were both very clean, modern and comfortable.

United KingdomI had a lovely stay at Musselburgh Links B&B. From my arrival to departure, everything met or exceeded my expectations. After a seamless check-in with a very welcoming host, the room had everything I needed and more: comfortable bed, clean ensuite, great little kitchenette (I only needed the fridge), and at night it was surprisingly quiet given the location and that it was a Saturday night. The location is perfect too, with lots of great places to eat and drink nearby, and easy access to Edinburgh. I visited Musselburgh to cycle, and there's a great bike shop over the road which was very handy!
