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 and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomThe shower was a wet room style so the whole bathroom was soaked after anyone had a shower - but it wasn’t the end of the world - with window open it did dry - imagine it would be a hassle in the colder months.
Very close to all the local attractions- every single member of staff was friendly helpful and professional - they really couldnt do enough for you. The room was small but stylish, clean and well organised with plenty of storage and a very comfy bed. The breakfast baps were tasty and filling.

United KingdomThe bathroom was in the style of a wet room and was on the small side which meant after a shower everything got wet - but there were plenty of towels provided which helped.
The location was great. Super comfortable bed, everything was nicely decorated. Staff very helpful and friendly. Very clean. The shower was really powerful. Huge TV in the room.

Becketts was a great B&B. It's clean, quiet and almost completely panelled in wood. Felt more like a cabin. It's really quiet, despite being just by the road. The staff are very good. I'd give a special shout out to Mia - excellent customer service, all through my stay. Thank you.

United KingdomI recently enjoyed staying at this lovely and well-located B&B, which I highly recommend. The comfortable bed and beautifully designed room made my stay relaxing and enjoyable. What's more, Mia and Sony were fantastic and always willing to assist with any questions or requests I had. Thank you :) Overall, my experience was wonderful, and I would definitely consider staying at this B&B again.

United KingdomLocation was fantastic. Bar area was really lovely. Sunny the bar tender was an absolute delight and really looked after us. Bedroom was great but a bit of a strange set up with regards to bathroom facilities. Breakfast was adequate, they don't really have cooking facilities for a cooked breakfast. Would definitely recommend staying here.

United KingdomIf I had to nitpick, I plugged my Fire TV stick into the back of the TV and the back of the TV was very dusty, but the rest of the room was spotless! Also there is only street parking available which you have to pay for, if you are staying a few nights it could get expensive. But the location of the property can’t be helped and there are plenty of streets with free parking near to Becketts if you need it.
Everything with Becketts was amazing, really took me and my partner by surprise! The facilities were great, staff were very friendly, the room was modern, clean and comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to stay here again!!

United KingdomThe only downside was the function room as the noise penetrated the lounge area and our bedroom at the top of the building. On mentioning the noise levels were disturbing us we were quickly advised the music would stop and the party would finish shortly which it did. I imagine timing a were taken into account when booking out the function room given this was addressed so quickly
A beautiful building so incredibly and lovingly restored. So very stylish and so much attention to detail. The sofa’s alongside the wood burner were an unexpected treat. Our entire stay was so comfortable on every level. As for the staff, all an absolute delight
