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.).

CanadaIf the property had a hot tub it would have made the stay even better. The sauna was more of a dry heat which was difficult to stay in for me, but I’m sure other guests probably enjoyed it. The view into the yard is nice but felt like our blinds had to be closed for privacy, unsure if the glass were tinted I should have checked but if not I’d personally enjoy privacy + natural light. However, these are small things!
All of the aesthetic touches were wonderful! If you’re someone who likes taking cute photos, this place had lots of opportunities. Loved the fire pit, I imagine in the summer this would be a great way to meet people. I like the idea of the space creating a community like a hostel whereas traditional hotels don’t really have that.

CanadaThe room I stayed in this time was a little dim, the lights were too low for me to read before I went to sleep and I had to use my phone to light my book while reading.
I have stayed here a few times when in town for work and the hotel manager remembered me and even took the time to leave me a personal welcome note and to leave me a bag of ice to stock my cooler for the next day before I left for work.

CanadaThe room was a bit cold when we arrived and given that it was winter time, it took a little time to warm up.
Everything was as described and the room was ready for our stay. Staff were very responsive when we called in but otherwise we didn’t have much contact with them. I’d stay again at Penny’s Motel and recommend it to friends.

CanadaThe room was beautiful and well setup. The Nespresso and body care scored bonus points for me. But what I liked best was the warm welcome by the staff and the wholesome experience at Apres. The cocktails were sublime and being able to take them with me to enjoy the bonfire was something to rave about.

CanadaIt would be nice to have in room fridges, I have food allergies and diet restrictions and have to travel with my own food and keeping a cooler cold in warmer weather is a bit of a challenge, that said, the staff went out of their way to assist me on my first stay getting ice for my cooler to keep my food fresh and remembered this on my second stay and made sure I had extra bags and plenty of ice to keep things fresh once again so I really can't complain at all.
I stayed at Penny's for a work related trip. The ambiance is very nice and relaxing in the yard, the rooms are cozy and well equipped a great place when away from home for work, I really feel comfortable. Thornbury is a quaint little village with a gorgeous waterfront and trails to explore. This little gem makes the whole experience perfect. Staying here for work makes working out of town seem like a little break.
