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 KingdomLack of communication of check in details. The staff do not answer messages. Guests should receive this info as soon as cancellation is no longer available, sent as a message rather than us having to call for it. For visitors from abroad the need to call is a problem. The whole building is wrapped up like Christo has come by. So there's no natural light inside. WiFi signal is weak.
Really clean, lovely room with ensuite, desk area, nice bed linen. Other than lack of natural light it was like a hotel room. Kitchen available where you can make tea/coffee. As others have mentioned, the lady who serves breakfast is very nice. The location is ok, but is up a long hill. Next time I'd choose a place closer to the rail station.

CanadaNo reception. No one there to let me in. Had to get locals to phone owner. A code to open front gate would have been nice. Rosie who served breakfast was wonderful.
Breakfast fine. Half hour walk to train station but I knew that.

United StatesThis was the worst facility we booked during our Italian trip. The facility was not in a good shape because the building was under some sort of construction. The private bathroom described in the booking's website was not really "private". There were two bathrooms being assigned to different guest rooms. We had to pass the public area to reach the one that was assigned to us. We were given a key to open/lock your bathroom, but we fount that the two bathrooms actually use the same kay, so there was really nothing to prevent other guest to open and use the bathroom assigned to us. In addition, the host was not easy to communicate with. We were not given an instruction about how to enter the facility. When we arrived, we couldn't get in. We sent a couple of messages but received no response. We eventually made a phone call to reach the host. Breakfast was included but only prepackaged croissant and snacks were provided.
Room was in a fairly good size and clean, A private parking place was provided.

ItalyThe B&B is located in a rather shabby suburban area. The rooms available for booking do not have en-suite facilities. The breakfast was poor and the building is currently undergoing external refurbishment, which means that it is surrounded by external scaffolding covered by plastic sheeting that does not even allow the windows to be opened. What I dispute is that this information did not appear on the Booking website, so I found the description on Booking completely misleading.
i didn't like anything about the B&B
