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 KingdomBathroom was a little cramped and tired, however, perfectly adequate for our needs. There are very few places to dine out in the evening you need a car to access local restaurants/takeaways.
Barbara is a gem, nothing too much trouble we had a fantastic breakfast every day of our stay loads of choice, all fresh produce and perfectly prepared it set us up for the day. We were visiting Knockhill circuit and the accommodation was ideally located for accessing the venue.

Made to feel that, as well as our room, we had access to the lounge and kitchen if we so desired. Everything was there to ensure our comfort and the extras in the room's fridge were exceptionally welcome and thoughtful. The breakfast was phenomenal. We made up a word for them ... FAT-TASTIC. Barbara could not have been more friendly and helpful, always providing humour and advice for our visit to the area.

The place, the atmosphere and the warm smile of the hostess. It was the best place to relax after walking around the whole day and away from any noises of the city.Fantastic breakfast and lovely room. The bed was comfortable and there is nothing else to say except exceptional ☺️ ☺️ ☺️ ☺️ .

United StatesNothing. Loved it!
Comfortable, clean and spacious rooms, with horse-themed artifacts all around. Homemade breakfast made to order daily - delicious and great choice. Lovely location in the country side with horses and sheep nearby. Barbara was very helpful and welcoming. She trains horses and has a horse sanctuary at the location too. Loved the little extras such as the fridge filled with milk, water bottles, Prosecco, biscuits and crisps, as well as the bath robe and slippers. Would definitely recommend. Good location. We parked the car at Halbeath park and ride one day and took the bus into Edinburgh (6 pounds) - 1/2 hour ride to the city. The next day we visited Stirling castle and Glenturret whisky distillery.
