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 KingdomThe room was rather dusty - the top of the dado rails in the room and the ensuite were all very dusty and the top of the mirror over the sink, although clean in itself, had a lot of dust along the upper edge. As everything else seemed very clean, it was rather disappointing to find so much dust!
The room was a good size and comfortable. The breakfasts were good and we also had an excellent evening meal.

United KingdomSome instructions on how to use the coffee maker would have been helpful.
The room was beautifully decorated and stylish. Lots of ideas to work on at home . Especially the panelling and height of the bed. I felt like a princess! Shower a wonderful rain shower and bathroom lovely and warm in time for morning shower. Great coffee making / tea facilities and good idea to have fresh milk in fridge just outside my room. Lovely and quiet despite being in centre of Stow. Breakfast wonderful and generous portions of smaller salmon and fresh locally laid eggs .

United Kingdom1. Key to Bedrooms building next door - trying to unlock the door was a huge faff. Also experienced by other guests we observed. 2. Room4. The shower needs a total rethink. You can't have a shower without getting the floor wet even with the shower curtain drawn due to the angle of the shower heads. The top one is aimed at the back wall of the shower and can't be reached and the lower down one just gets the floor wet. Crazy. 3. Music. They need to rethink this. The music in the bar is evidently piped into the dining room. Sat night the music in the dining room was really loud and was a cross between the Beasty Boys and some Grunge type stuff - not relaxing at all. 4. You can see somebody having a shower through the window from outside. Although the glass was rivened you could clearly see somebody showering so some roller-blind is needed there since its on the ground floor guests can freely walk past it from the outside. 5. Hair dryer would be useful - we had to ask for one and the staff delivered it no problem.
Great friendly staff. Room was nice and big and bed comfortable. Food was very good and reasonably priced.Awesome location. Would stay again for sure.

United StatesThe only thing to note is that this is a rooms above pub situation. There is no traditional lobby or reception room. Also, bear in mind that rooms are simple and some doubles are quite snug.
