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.).

AustraliaWe enjoyed our 1 comfortable night. The host was very welcoming. The room was good for 2 people, and the extras of cereal and snacks were a welcome extra. There was a little fridge in the room, which is a great plus when travelling. We enjoyed the close by viewpoint as well as the walk down the hill to Oban. We would definitely stay again and recommend this lovely guest house.

IsraelPay attention that footpaths exist across the neighbourhood. Coming from outside the UK we are not comfortable with walking on roads to the ferry and back, so you can use them instead. The location is on a tall hill so it might not suit people with disabilities.
Welcoming and helpful host, good night sleep and great views from the nearby view point. The location is great to easily get on the ferry to Mull and back.

United KingdomNothing. Everything was top notch!
Don Muir is easy to get to, in a quiet location above Oban port. My single room was nicely furnished, with a very comfy bed and lots of welcome treats, including fresh milk and orange juice in the fridge. The bathroom (bathtub, shower, loo) across the hallway was extremely spacious and spotlessly clean, with plenty of hot water. Finally, the owner was really friendly and most helpful.

United KingdomI should have printed out a map before coming because I couldn't get Googlemaps to work in Oban, so got lost! My own fault.
The view from the viewpoint nearby was great. The 'Welcome tray' was great and saved me from going back out to look for breakfast. Very much appreciated! It was a quiet location and the host was very helpful.

United KingdomBooked this guest house last minute on our spontaneous mini moon, beautiful guest house, so very clean… it was perfect! Could not fault it. Our host was friendly and lovely and that viewpoint just wow! If you want a quiet little place to stay not far from town then this is the place! Complimentary breakfast in our bedroom was a nice touch too. Thank you for having us.

United KingdomReally well located, out of the main area, only a 10min walk into town. Really quiet location and near an amazing lookout point over all of Oban. Excellent host, really friendly and accommodating but not intrusive. Room was super comfortable and although there is no breakfast, the light refreshments in the room were a lovely touch. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if in Oban.
