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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

New ZealandOur room was upstairs so if you have a problem with stairs request downstairs room. Just a little niggle that our towels were not replaced on our second to last day. Dirty ones were put back on the towel rail for some reason and our mugs weren’t washed (perhaps a busy day?).
Good location. Flat, easy walk into town and all the sights and eating places. Bright, good size bedroom and a bath as well as shower in the bathroom. Good choice of breakfast foods: Cereal, fruit or a range of traditional English cooked breakfast foods. Helpful staff. Mostly quiet road especially at night when sleeping.

United KingdomThe shower head/hoses were broken, so it was hard to take a shower. The heater turned off at night, so the room was not that warm when I went to bed.
The room was cosy and the hosts were nice and peaceful. It was easy to go to the city centre on walking and located in a quiet place without any noise. The English breakfast was great too!

United KingdomVery slight noise from passing traffic, but nowhere near enough to disturb us or prevent my wife (who is very easily disturbed by noise) sleeping.
The location is excellent- only 10-15 minutes walk to the Minster. The property was pretty quiet considering the location & clean. The breakfasts were fabulous- the owners friendly & welcoming. On street parking available.

United KingdomA very basic smart phone, so needed to ask more directions to the Guesthouse from others when I got lost! A map included in acectance email would have been helpful
The breakfast was amazing, fried egg to perfection! The bed was so comfortable, slept so well! The link to internet worked so well. A "single room" can often have limited facilities, this room did not lack in anyway.

United KingdomThere wasn't really any need to clean our room & make our beds each day. Although lovely of the hosts to do it, I feel they made more work for themselves by doing so. Kettle was faulty in the room, which wasn't a major issue for us
Breakfast was fantastic! Very tasty, lots of choices & service with a smile. Perfect location. Would definitely stay again 😊
