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 KingdomIt was all good for me but my partner doesn't really like hills so if anything that would be the only downside for people that aren't as fit or young..
Quiet location at the top of a hill so views were excellent,. The room came with walk in shower with several different modes including a sauna and radio. Breakfast was excellent and the hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Would definately stay there again and recommend it to anyone.. Also very close to Dover Priory train station about 4 min walk

United StatesThere was nothing that we did not like about the property. We would stay there again, if the opportunity arose.
We had an apartment with a small kitchen, microwave, fridge, sink, kettle, and some dishes and silverware. The bedroom was large with a king bed. There was a toilet and sink in one room and a shower, including a sauna, in a separate room. It was very nice and quiet. There was on-site parking. There are several steps from the parking area to the apartment. Breakfast was served in the adjoining part of the building up some stairs. The breakfast was really good. It included cereal, granola, yogurt, and juice. Additionally, there was a hot breakfast up to a full breakfast. We had mushrooms, tomato, eggs, bacon, sausage, and toast. It was perfectly cooked both mornings we were there. Breakfast was served in a small glass porch area with a nice view. The hosts live on site and were very helpful. It was one of the nicest places we stayed in England. It was a good location near the city center area. We drove to the city center, but it would only be a 20 to 15 minute walk.

We want to thank the owners for everything they have done for us.It was our first stay on a B&B. I was a bit sceptical at the beginning, but everything was perfect, starting with the location, which is very close to all the attractions, the room was clean and very comfortable, and food amazing. Definitely I recommend this place Thanks you 😀
