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 StatesNothing comes to mind except maybe that we were on the second floor. Not good after you drink one of their complimentary Pain Killers. But that was just the luck of availability.
The staff. There is nothing I can say about the staff except fantastic! From the girl in the office that helped us carry our bags to our room, to the people that continually keep the grounds clean, to the personable bar tenders. They have bottled water in the office area and anything you need. Soap, sunscreen, shampoo. Everything except toothpaste which of course we forgot. Lol. The room was comfortable with great air conditioning, a sofa and a kitchenette. Also all the coffee that you need.

United StatesN/A. Overall excellent experience.
The property was adorable and centrally located. We were able to walk to just about everything! The room itself was cute, clean, and set back from the street and bar so you never really hear anything! Staff is excellent and friendly and we had whatever we needed at our fingertips!

United StatesThe Speakeasy Inn and Rum Bar is located in a quieter part of Old Town Key West, but only a short walk away from the festive night life Key West is known for. Our super cute room with a kitchenette, king bed separated from kitchenette by the wardrobe (almost like a private bedroom), a tiny sitting area and a private bath. It was everything we needed and more! Kitchenette was stocked with different coffee and tea pods for the Keurig, kitchenware, fridge, microwave and toaster. Bathroom included toiletries and towels, and hairdryer. We also found beach towels in the wardrobe which we used for our day at Zachary Taylor State Park and our trip to Dry Tortugas/Fort Jefferson National Park, as both parks have beach areas. The speakeasy/rum bar was a fun place to relax, with or without a drink, inside at the bar or outside on the front porch, after a day of sightseeing. We especially liked the front porch in the evenings after strolling through town to wind down before bed. Our room came with parking for 1 car, just around the corner from the Inn. Keyless entry was an added bonus too! And, lastly, The Captain, the house cat, greeted us every morning by our door. Staff was awesome and very attentive, grabbing us new towels and extra water whenever we needed. This charming spot did not disappoint...We will definitely be back!

United StatesExpect some street/bar noise but not excessive. Roosters were the most disruptive but part of the Key West charm. Only minor complaint was no drawers/dresser in the room so couldn’t really unpack things that couldn’t be hung in the armoire.
Unique location. Very comfortable room, bathroom functioned well. Staff very friendly and helpful.

RomaniaVery nice room with private patio. The position of the accommodation was perfect, right on Duval Street. The bar serves very good cocktails, the employees were very nice and gave us all the information we needed. Also they have a very friendly cat that comes in and out of the bar, who stayed with us while we enjoyed our drinks. We’ll definitely come back.
