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.).

CanadaThere wasn't anything we didn't like.
Anneke was delightful. She had tea and homemade apple strudel for us when we arrived. She loves getting to know her guests. Cedar Song B&B is in the countryside which didn't bother us at all as the place was quaint and peaceful.

CanadaAnneke was an amazing host. She was so warm and welcoming and made us feel at home the moment we set foot on her beautiful property. You can tell she puts her heart and soul into everything she does, and it shows! Our room was beautiful ,immaculate, and spacious, and the decor was so lovely. The bed was probably the most comfortable we have ever slept in. The setting in the woods was a perfect way to unwind and forget your day to day worries. We loved seeing her adorable chickens and the wild bunnies. After our day outing, we were always greeted with a warm smile from Anneke and a cup of tea. Her breakfasts were so delicious and kept you fueled for most of the day. The presentation with flowers on the food was such a creative touch! We have stayed in a few bed and breakfasts over the years, but none of the hosts were as personable as her! Anneke is truly in a class of her own. Thank you for making our mini getaway such a delightful experience. We will most definitely be coming back. Marko & Desiree

United StatesOur hostess Anneke was a delight ! The wooded property just a few minutes from Errington/Parksville with a beautiful country home. We enjoyed a lovely reception of coffee and homemade pastries and our room was clean and comfortable. We relaxed and sat on the porch watching hummingbirds,rabbits,and other birds. Comfortable nights sleep and then treated to a delicious breakfast each day. Anneke gave some great ideas to do during the day including visiting / hiking Englishman river falls. Highly recommend !!

CanadaDifficult to find (our GPS couldn't locate the address), and a bit of a drive from Parksville, but that is part of the charm.
Aneke, our hostess, was one of the nicest and most interesting people we have met anywhere, so much so that we invited her out to dinner on our second night. Breakfast each morning was outstanding A lovely relaxing place, interacting with the chickens and the tame wild rabbits in the garden, while sipping the refreshing drinks provided.
