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.).

FranceThe only reason I didn't give it a 10 - apart from the fact that nothing is perfect in life - is that, living in France, we find prices in England rather high, this is not a comment on their prices in particular.
We loved everything basically - especially the home cooked breakfast in my case. The couple running the place are delightful and very helpful. Highly recommended. You can park easily in front of the house too.

SwitzerlandIt is quite a long way out of the town centre. However, there are quite a few restaurants within walking distance near the station. Driving down to the seafront and parking up proved rather difficult. Which is not the fault of Anne and John of course.
A really cozy retreat on our travels. What a beautiful home and you become part of it from the moment you arrive. Anne and John go out of their way to fulfill every wish of the guest. Breakfast was fantastic and very flexible. All products fresh and of the best quality. Being the only guests at the time, we could park our car in the drive. Very convenient.

United KingdomNone!.
I had the best time here with my friend. The house was very nice, very close to the train station and the sea, quiet, and pleasant! The experience far exceeded our expectations. The luckiest part of the whole trip was discovering the Manse house. Anne was very lively and helpful with her advice on our trip. John was very patient, showing us the room in detail, and the breakfast was super delicious. If a five-star hotel experience is great, I'd say the Manse is worth 10 stars. Highly recommend!

Location was superb-residential but walkable to restaurants and on West side of Eastbourne which suited us. Lovely coastal walks within a few minutes drive and parking available. Lovely cotton bedding and towels, quality furnishings and all comforts in room -even sweets and biscuits! Hosts were wonderfully welcoming, informative and did everything they could to please. Superb breakfasts.

United KingdomI had a wonderful stay and would not hesitate to return. The room was beautiful and the bedroom and bathroom were sparkling clean. Everything you need and more - yummy biscuits, bottled water and fresh milk in the fridge (which I really appreciated as long life milk tastes awful in my opinion). The breakfast was delicious- a wide range of cereals including home made muesli and granola (yum), fruit and yoghurt, lots of choice for cooked breakfast also. And of course toast with John’s yummy homemade jam and marmalade. I was made to feel so welcome. Thank you!!

United KingdomNothing, except that the toilet in the room we stayed was difficult to flush at times, but Anne did say the bathroom is getting an upgrade very soon. This was a minor issue, nothing to complain about.
Really enjoyed our stay at The Manse! John and Anne were very welcoming, friendly and are happy to cater to your individual needs. Breakfast was lovely, with nice choices. Fruit available was delicious as was the cooked breakfasts. Anne and John are very accomodating with any dietary requirements. Very friendly atmosphere, with lots of tips on best places to visit etc. Lots of printed maps available to borrow, whether you decide to explore locally or further afield. Cant wait to return! Thank you John and Anne!
