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.).

Very warm welcome and comfy rooms. Jane was helpful and wanted to make sure we have dinner booking as soon as we arrived to make sure we were not without dinner. Breakfast was very good and freshly cooked with a great choice.

We liked that the property was close to town but felt like we were in the country. It is a farm. The farmhouse interior has been improved by the owners. We enjoyed being in the Heather room which had a wonderful view of the garden and the fields. The room was beautifully set up! From the balcony I could hear the birds and watch them come to the feeders. Jane, the owner, made us a delicious breakfast. We did not stay long enough to enjoy the common living room with beautiful views and puzzle table and fireplace and more!

BelgiumIf you are in for a pieceful and silent stay, pick Jane’s. The farmhouse is rural with beautiful views and a nice garden. While Steven is busy with the catle, Jane welcomes hikers and makes you feel at home. Breakfast is fine. If asked a full plate of salmon is provided, or a portion of porridge and several other typical dishes.

SpainIt is not in the centre of Drymen so it is a 10-15 minute walk from the accommodation to the nearest restaurant for dinner.
The room was comfortable and the staff very nice and welcoming. It is also on the WHW so you don't loose much time (if you do the walk) getting back on the route. The breakfast was a la carte and very tasteful.

United StatesOur stay at Jane's B&B was wonderful! The rooms were incredibly comfortable and include all the comforts you need. Made to order breakfast every morning was absolutely delicious, and Jane made us feel right at home. The location provides an easy drive to the Trossachs National Park and Ben Lomond. The town of Drymen is a great spot with good local shops and restaurants to choose from!

We stayed here 2 nights as the first stop on the West Highland Way.It was a very restful location, and our knees thanked us! It is slightly off the WHW and we walked an extra mile to get there, but we walked a mile less the following day. We would recommend this B&B. The views from the balcony of our very spacious room were superb.

Czech RepublicThere was a bit of a smell, but that's to be expected at a farmhouse and the dogs too were mentioned in the description.
A beautiful, quiet accommodation with a very welcoming owner who sends a lot of useful tips and instructions before one's arrival. My room was gigantic, with a comfortable bed, a modern bathroom and a pretty view.

PolandA pointing mark indicating not only the name but also distance to the property from the main road would be appreciated. It’s easy to mistake the Farmhouse with the first house.
Fantastic room - sooo big, well equipped, with stauning view, and the most comfy bed I ever slept in. Delicious breakfast. Close to the nature - there was a hare in the garden in the morning.
