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 KingdomOne person in our party felt warm despite the heating being turned off, so she had to open the window. It was quite close to the highway so we woke up to the sound of cars/trucks zooming past the guesthouse. I asked for a fan but there was none available.
The room and the guesthouse itself was very homey, and I love that it was situated so close to a valley park. Going to the conference also just took us a 12 minute walk.

A charming little cottage all to yourself, which feels like a home from home. Really comfy beds, everything you need for a short break, and even home baked scones. Parking right outside the door and plenty of facilities nearby.

United StatesWe stayed as a group, and would highly recommend it as a group stay, but because 2 of the bathrooms aren't ensuite if you were there alone you'd just need to deal with needing to get dressed in the bathroom before exiting into the hallway/kitchen. The bathrooms were good in all other aspects however. The bin outside from the cafe business unfortunately hadn't been emptied and smelled a bit, was slightly unpleasant getting to the car, but really not a big issue. The outdoor furniture wasn't in the area as described, but there was loads of available seating anyway if we wanted to sit outside.
The coffee was great, French coffee press in each room as well as a large ones in the kitchen for larger groups. The rooms were a good size and comfortable as well as had characters. The guide in the rooms was helpful with nice local walks, however I'd say that the Galleon has gone downhill with the new owners since the guide was written.

Lovely touches to make this listed building special. QR codes telling the history. Clever uses of old materials I.e. ladders as shelves. Quality bathroom products. Welcome cakes and milk and orange juice in fridge. Immediate response to any questions. Spotlessly clean. Next to friendly community cafe serving the best scones.

United KingdomThe only slight downside is the lack of en suite in two rooms. There are however dedicated bathrooms in each case.
The School House was an absolute delight. It provided a lovely step into the past without compromising modern amenities. The attention to detail was impressive with so much upcycled so effectively and the use of environmentally friendly products throughout. We particularly liked the use of student art on the soft furnishings and of course the training facility for young people with autism. The adjoining cafe was a bonus with delicious cake and a warm friendly welcome.

United KingdomNothing to add here!
The stone cottage is really clean and really cute with original features and at the same time very comfortable and warm (central heating) especially during cold autumn days/nights! There's everything you need in the kitchen to make a brew and some and the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. One of the three bedrooms is on the ground floor, so it's also suitable for people with mild mobility problems. Off street parking is a bonus. Also for charging e-cars. The are two pubs nearby, the villages of Wolverton and, in opposite direction, Stony Stratford with more options for dining also in walking distance and a cafe next door but that is not open during weekends in autumn/winter. The location is ideal for walking trips.

Very nice building. Good bedroom, very clean. We had a large external bathroom. Well equipped kitchen and nice sitting area. We had a good brunch in the community café, which is located next door. Enough private parking places are available, although sometimes some spaces were occupied by visitors of the community café. A good pub is in walking distance, a lot of walking tracks in the area. The centre of Wolverton was a 15-minute walk. We had a dog-friendly room.
