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.).

United KingdomThe bathroom was beautiful but I couldn't use the bath as there was no plug and altho the bathroom window was obscured glass I didn't feel comfortable on the toilet or using the shower as there was no blind for the bathroom window. Such a shame as the room would have been perfect.

United KingdomThe room was a little cramped, mainly due to being a loft room with a sloped ceiling. In arrival it was a hot sunny day and the room was totally stifling. Hence they provided a fan fortunately. The electric shower in the shared bathroom was a little temperamental !
Lovely, really friendly staff, nice breakfast room, and very clean. Parking outside was great if you get in early for one of the two spaces.

United StatesThe weather certainly could have been better.
Everything went well. We could even park our car in front of the house. Breakfast was very nice: everything you would want if you’re not into bangers. Lovely lady serving us. Comfortable and clean room, walking distance from the centre if you care to walk 30 minutes, which we did. But the bus stop is nearly in front of the house if you feel lazy. Also almost in front of the house are several usefull shops and supermarkets. Recommended.

Great little bnb in summertown, very close to bus stop that takes you into town (about a 10 min bus ride). Summertown is a lovely part of Oxford with some brilliant restaurants and coffee shops. Very friendly staff who were accommodating despite me being late to breakfast. Great selection for breakfast. Comfy mattresses, cosy room that was clean and appropriate amenities.

NetherlandsVery small bath/showerroom. But just fine for two nights
Booked the triple room for 2 nights for me and my parents. It was a very nice room. The single bed was very comfortable, the double bed felt different and was a little less comfortable but ok for two nights. The room was very clean and we liked the little table and chairs! The bathroom was very small but the shower was good. The breakfast offered is really nice. A choice of eggs, croissants, toast and some jams, cereal, milk, juices. Perfectly fine. The busstop to the city centre is right in front which is very convenient. The B&B is on a very busy road so there is some noise in the triple room. We were able to park our car right in front of the accomodation which was awesome! All in all a very nice and comfortable stay
