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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

CanadaNothing, absolutely everything was excellent!
Every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. Herb & Janice’s century old home was immaculately clean and furnished to acknowledge their families heritage. Bonus, we had opportunity to watch a sea otter search for food and schools of mackerel broach the sea, while watching a lovely sunset..., darn near perfect 😁.

There was no breakfast. The room was spacious, decorated beautifully, wine glasses and bottled water provided. Herb even helped to bring in our luggage. He was there to greet us and met Janice afterwards. She was also friendly. Beautiful room and view of ocean. Washroom had jacuzzi tub. We loved watching the sunset sitting in androck chairs at back of property. We loved our room and beautiful scenery. Did not want to leave! It was definitely our favourite stay from our week in Newfoundland.

United StatesI didn't like that it was a suite and I was sharing the kitchen with another couple. They were quiet and friendly but I once stayed in an AirBnb where the other couple in my suite stole kitchen property and blamed it on me, and it went on my record. That didn't happen at the Sea Tourist Home, thank heavens, but having gone through it once, I am wary of such situations.
It was an old house, spotlessly clean and well-kept, and the decor was warm, homey and practical without making an effort to be quaint or annoyingly cute. The place had a feeling of truth to it. My room had a bank of windows (probably a porch added on) the overlooked the ocean. The windows were wide open and the room was light and airy. I have stayed in many places but by far this was my favorite. It had every amenity I could need, a terrific shower, and it was quiet — just the sea, the wind and me. I arrived exhausted, having arisen before dawn for the drive, and Herb, the owner, let me in early. I slept deeply in that bed not just because it was very comfortable but also because the whole place made me comfortable.

CanadaWall between bedrooms was a little thin, but maybe our neighbours were just a bit noisy. :)
Very clean and well-kept. Owner Herb was friendly and accommodating of our later check-in. Kitchen was easy to use and well-equipped. Room was spacious with lots of lovely decorations, a coffee corner, a comfortable bed, and even a couch and TV. Bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand sanitizer, hair dryer, making for a comfortable stay. Especially enjoyed the pieces of the house's history on display in the halls.

United StatesI advise that this property might not be ideal for older, less agile people. The floors and stairs are lovely wood but slippery. (Bedroom and bath are upstairs.) The house is old, although entirely modernized, but a few of the floors tilt.
There was a lot to like…very comfy bed, nice kitchen, but most of all loved being right by the ocean. We could sit and watch the ocean from the Adirondack chairs or from our windows
