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 StatesWe were happy with everything.
We stayed here at the end of our UK trip. It was much more than we expected and was the least expensive of all the places we stayed. Steve was a great host as well as the bartender at the downstairs neighborhood bar. We greatly enjoyed interacting with the local patrons of the bar. The bed was great as was the shower. We would definitely stay here again.

Pleasant room, well furnished and thoughtful additions like make-up removal cloth and chilly bottle for fresh milk for tea/coffee - good selection of teas/coffees etc. Loved the breakfast setup - free access to well stocked kitchen with everything needed to make a perfect breakfast. Impressive. Excellent host - friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful.

United KingdomNo carpark at the property but we managed to get street parking and this wouldn't stop us from coming back 😀.
We received a lovely welcome and was given all the information we needed. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable and just 13 minutes from the town centre which was just £5.20 each way in a taxi. A nice continental breakfast was available in the kitchen which we could just help ourselves too. We would 100% stay again if we came to watch a show at the Regent Theatre in the future.

United KingdomNo dislikes at all. You don't go to The Sutherland Arms for the view, but it suited my needs perfectly.
Large spacious double room which was very comfortable, as was the bed. Although there was no cooked breakfast as such, the self service breakfast in the shared kitchen area was very welcome and well thought out with a good choice of cereals and other options. Would I return to The Sutherland Arms ? .... yes ! ... no question.

United KingdomNothing to say. A totally positive experience. The only downside is knowing the owners are moving on, leaving huge shoes to fill for the new people!
A superb place to stay! The room was gorgeous & bright, on the corner with three sets of windows, and a fascinating choice of furniture too. The shared kitchen was impressively stocked. And the pub downstairs is a quality, friendly locals pub.

United KingdomWe stayed for one night to attend a wedding in the local area. Polly and Steve were very accommodating and understanding with our request to check in early so we could drop our stuff off before the wedding. They worked hard to have our room ready early. The room was so lovely, it was very clear that a lot of care had gone into making the room and bathroom nice and comfortable, lots of lovely little touches. Very easy code system for getting around the building. The communal kitchen had everything we needed for breakfast. A very relaxed vibe.

TaiwanA bit of hot in the room(At least the owner provided a fan, thank you for that). Somtimes there was big noise when using Toilet and shower, perhaps came from water pipe system?
I like the room, big, cozy, delicate windows. WIFI signals are good. Telly can watch Netflix if you have account to login.

United KingdomNothing wrong with the place itself but as the owner said, there was a sort of loud manhole cover outside on the road, this was fine but that particular night was very hot, and we were provided with a large fan so can't really complain. My understanding is that the owner is trying to get the local council to fix it and is hopeful that it will be sometime soon.
This place was more than I expected when I had to find somewhere to stay on such short notice. The staff were friendly and very understanding. It is a Continental Breakfast, meaning that the kitchen is stocked with various cereals and food items that you can help yourself to, nothing wrong there.

All staff were friendly and welcoming. We were met initially by Emma who was first class in imparting everything we needed to know to make our stay comfortable including recommendations for eating out locally. The landlord and landlady were also very welcoming, making sure our needs were being met.
