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.).

Verified reviewLovely little Hotel conveniently situated a short walk from town. Although there is no breakfast available we were provided with rolls,butter, jam,tea coffee and biscuits in the room, lovely touch. There is a beautiful garden area at the rear for guests to enjoy with lemon and orange trees aplenty.
Nothing.

Verified reviewBesides the room being a bit small, it was reasonably comfortable. The bed was great. I liked that they provided water and milk in the "fridge" with complementary goodies to eat in a little basket... It was also great that we had a little balcony on our unit. The terrace was awesome and I would have enjoyed it more if the weather wasnt scorching hot
Lack of shelf in bathroom Very poor lighting in bathroom considering it had black tiles on walls and floor Insufficient packing space in cupboard. Most space was taken over by blankets and cushions Bar fridge was more a cooler box than a fridge. On its highest level, it still didnt manage to make things cold. Even though there was a capsule coffee machine, I would have preferred a kettle with water and a container with coffee and sugar so I could make my own.

Verified reviewAn interesting little place. Essentially just a room with a garden. Good size rooms and bathroom. Clean and well presented. Parking in the drive or (safely) on the street. No facilities for breakfast, but buns and coffee in the room (balcony or in the garden I suppose). Staff are helpful and friendly. 20/25 minute walk to town (parking in town is an issue...walk!). Cafes and shops in the area (although it is very residential and local)
More than 1 coffee each please ... spares for the caffein addicts?

Verified reviewClean and a very comfortable bed. Microwave and coffee machine in the room were very handy. The welcome basket of nibbles etc was a nice touch. My bicycle was safe at the rear of the property.
The shower leaked between the frame and the tiles onto the bathroom floor. The gap between the wardrobe and bed legs was too small and I stubbed my toes a number of times. I am not tall but I hit my head twice on the heavy light fitting in the reception area.
