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.).

PolandExcellent location just two minutes away from Dover Beach (btw the best beach in the region), clean, bright and safe. The owner was really nice, she was responding straight away whenever I had some questions before the arrival and I was able to pay by card at the property. I was allowed to check out couple of hours later as I had my flight in the evening with no issues.

CanadaThe only downside was the smoke, as I do have allergies the smell was indented downstairs so as you walk in you smell it all over . Once I was upstairs in my room there was no smell, which was good for sleeping and breathing
I loved how convenient the location was to everything especially as it is right at the end of St. Lawrence Gap and the beach a mere 3min walk, as a solo traveler it was comfortable walking around day and night. The guesthouse had everything I needed for a relaxing stay as it was clean, spacious and quiet . As I had the room with the shared bathroom, it was great to have. Gabrielle was an amazing host and loved to have a good convo. She ensured that I had eveything I needed and changed the towels if needed. I liked that guests had a seperate fridge and living room upstairs but was still able to use the main kitchen downstairs. I most definitely will be staying here anytime I come back to Bim, I highly recommend everyone to stay here 100%

Trinidad and TobagoMy fiance and I booked this guesthouse and it was superb. Gabby the homeowner was truly welcoming. She was very helpful with everything that we needed to know. Her home of business was like a home to us!!! The beach was literally a two minute walk, with all the bars and restaurants close by. Our first visit to the island and it wasn't a mistake choosing her home as our stay. Thank you Gabby...hope to visit again soon.

Gabi is an excellent host with a lot of knowledge about the island and was always checking in to see how my day was and if everything was okay. Location perfect, close to Dover beach and St Lawrence gap which has a lot of local food stalls, bars and karaoke. Plenty of taxis and bus stops nearby too. If you’re a solo traveller like myself who doesn’t stay inside too much this property is perfect. However, if I would want a chill day in the room, this property does that also. Clean, tidy, respectful - just what you need for a really good price. A really cute dog called Rango also outside - please go and say hello and give her pets she’s beautiful!

Saint LuciaThis location and place is the best.... in the mouth of saint Lawrence, 1 minute walk to the beach. Transportation as well was very easy to get.they past every minute or so. The host was really good as well in terms of explaining around for me telling me where the supermarkets are and the time they close, always made sure I was good and comfortable... I give this place 10/10 to be honest because of the environment as well, very quiet, nobody to harass you, you do whatever at whatever time and the people approach you real genuinely... so at the moment, the best booking I've had.

The guest house is hosted by Gabi, a very charming and helpful woman. She arranged for her son-in-law to meet me at the airport which was a seamless experience. I stayed in the double room with private bath. It was clean, commodious and comfortable. I prepared my own breakfast in her very modern kitchen which is accoutered with every convenience one could want. There is a refrigerator and freezer which is specifically reserved for guest's use. The guest house is located in a safe environment within walking distance to Dover Beach, restaurants (everything from street vendors to haute cuisine), mini-marts, shopping, taxis, an ATM and bus stop. Gabi is very well-versed in Island Life and can answer almost any question you might have. Dover Beach is a 1/4 mile stretch of powdery coral sand. One can rent beach chairs and umbrellas there, swim, engage in water sports, enjoy the beach bars and walk unhindered along the sand. I spent many hours observing the passing parade and the ineffable, sparkling aquamarine waters. This beach is one of many on the island of which Gabi has personal knowledge. I have read the other reviews of this property on booking.com and everything they mentioned is true with no hyperbole. If you are looking for a guest house on the South Coast of Barbados this is it.

She recommended another accommodation, equally nice, for one more night as her house was fully booked. Strongly recommend!

United StatesI had contacted Gaby and she responded right away in a very professional manner. Her home is very clean, cozy and with beautiful positive colors and furnitures. Gaby is a wonderful, respectful and polite person. Her home is less than 5 walking minutes from the Dover Beach and some great restaurants and coffee shops. Her home is also very close to the bus stop, so a perfect location for anybody who does not want to get around per car and learn more about the Bajan people and culture. A perfect stay. Will come back gladly and stay with Gaby.
