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.).

United KingdomLate check in with no flexibility unless you paid extra. I arrived 30 minutes early and was not allowed to check in till 4pm.
The bedroom was impeccably clean, modern and comfortable. Staff are super. Ate with friends in the restaurant - food was excellent and not way overpriced.

United KingdomThe room was advertised as having fluffy robes which were not in the room. There was no hot water in our room (number 6)on the Sunday morning and no one was available to speak to about this. For the money with no breakfast option we thought a little expensive. Our water wasn’t replenished for our second night likewise our coffee and sugar were not refilled. A small fridge in the room would have possibly been an option for people to at least keep something for a breakfast option.
Location was great. Very nice bar and food.

United KingdomThe fact that we had no.idea that the restaurant and bar were closing at 5.30pm......Bank Holiday We should have been alerted at time of booking I feel. Old friends meeting up, we were hoping to spend all.out time at the Black Bull but had to go out to eat that evening.
Like the vibe. Accommodation above expectation. Bar area cosy and conducive to chatting. Perfect place for a Scot, a South African and an Australian to meet up for first time in 3 years

United KingdomMy only grumble was and the reason for not getting a 10, I think our room was above the boiler house and occasionally through the night we got rumblings from the plumbing, possibly air in the system but apart from that we enjoyed our stay.
We could not fault the room and facilities, All our party had great rooms and we stayed for dinner in the bar, the service was good as was the food. I would highly recommend The Black Bull as a great place to stay.

United KingdomThe Black Bull doesn't serve breakfast so we had to eat breakfast elsewhere. Again there are places in the town so that was not a particular problem.
The room was good and attractive with all facilities provided. There are plenty of places to eat in the town and we could have eaten at the Black Bull itself. A great place for a short stay.

United KingdomThe Black Bull Inn is a traditional pub with accommodation. Our room was in an annexe with a door onto the pavement of the main road. Grass area for the dog was a little way down the road, not within the Black Bull premises. The Inn has no parking of its own, though we were able to park very close to our room in the street. Overall it was quite an expensive overnight stay.
Dog friendly - dogs allowed in the bar area for supper and breakfast. Dog food, bowl and blanket provided, though we, as most dog owners would, brought our own. Moffat is a pretty town with pleasant walks close to the A74(M).
