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.).

SwedenThe room was very cozy and every time we came back at the end of the day the beds were made. The service was excellent and you could really tell that Jo cares about her customers. She went out of her way to get vegan breakfast options for me which was very kind of her. The location is also great.

This was a great stay in a good location in Windermere, close to lots of shops, restaurants and close to the bus stop/train station. The house itself was very nice with some cool decor. The room was cozy, clean and with good amenities like tea/coffee. The bathroom was also clean, with Shampoo, Shower gel and a decent warm shower. The host Jo was amazing and very informative and the breakfast was decent with a choice of full english, bacon butty or cereals. Highly recommended

United KingdomThe accomodation is very close to the train station and local shops. The room size was absolutely fine. It might feel bit hot during summers, so better to keep windows open at night-time. Nice breakfast is served every morning - Jo is a lovely host.

United KingdomLiked everything!
Friendly and Helpful! Jo was very welcoming on my arrival, she made me feel comfortable. Jo explained where the room was, facilities available, times of breakfast and checking out time! She also explained about the handbook in the room. When I said I was going on a six lakes tour, she gave me a booklet showing where it was from the B&B and how to get there, also recommended some lovely places to eat. I really enjoyed my stay there, if in the area again I will definitely book here!

The host, Jo, is a lovely lady who makes you feel totally welcome as soon as you step through the door. You feel genuinely valued as a guest. The breakfast was excellent; full English/veggie available, including toast, tea/coffee, juice and cereal - perfect for a day of walking! Room was warm and bed was really comfortable - what more do you want or need.
