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.).

Walls slightly thin, could hear guests next door snoring. We slept well either way so didn't bother us. Note to other guests to park in front of the first garden in front of the black door, main entrance to the home, facing away from the road.
Rita was an excellent host who gave us a tour of the property on arrival. Location was great around a 5 minute drive and 25 minute walk. Room was small but comfortable, basic amenities in room as you would expect in a BnB, kettle and other facilities available in the kitchen. Bedroom door lockable. Shared bathroom was clean and basic toiletries provided, bath and shower present. Molly and Louie (two small dogs) were so sweet and we enjoyed their company. Rita made us breakfast (also catered for my vegetarian partner). Had lovely conversation and Rita gave us a few ideas for the rest of our trip. 10/10 would recommend for anyone. Thank you Rita for being so welcoming and making our stay pleasant and comfortable.

For us, we didn’t have a car and it was hard for us to get around as public transportation isn’t great around there. Not a problem if you have a car!
Rita and Matt were super lovely, breakfast was yum and the property is gorgeous and have two really cute dogs! Bed was big, bathroom was spacious

The breakfast setup was unusual - one morning it was help yourself (including cooking but it was a shared kitchen with others so this didn’t seem practical) and the next morning the host cooked eggs for us (I was planning on trying to make myself porridge but then couldn’t).
Easy to find and host was welcoming. The bed was comfortable and restaurants were only a half hour walk away.

Can’t think of anything we didn’t like.
Our hosts were wonderful! They were welcoming, and we had some great conversations. They gave us helpful ideas on a supper location, and told us about a great local hiking path. We really enjoyed our stay with them.

Great location as easy walk or drive into town. Meticulously clean and comfortable. Matt & Rita are lovely hosts. Great conversationists and warmly shared their home with us. Especially appreciated that good breakfast options were presented and we were able to cook our own breakfast. Was a pleasant and healthier change from the hotels we had been staying. Loved the Usher Garden...thank you Matt!
