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.).

What a wonderful B&B! Beautiful location. Lovely decor throughout with a lovely en suite bathroom. Emma was a charming hostess and made us feel very welcome. We had wonderful breakfasts in our room each day. A delicious menu and very high quality produce. Really good value for money. The Old School House was a highlight of our NC500 trip and we would definitely like to visit again.

United KingdomNothing, we loved everything about this place!
Emma and Rob have created a very welcoming and well organised B&B. The room was great, we stayed in the one with the separate bathroom, but it's really no issue at all as it's just across the hall. It all feels very private. The breakfast was fantastic and a really extensive selection (catering to all dietary requirements). The view was lovely from the room and it was very cosy and warm. Excellent all round!

AustraliaWe loved our spacious, comfortable room (the double one) with its beautiful sea view. It was such a nice space to be in that we didn’t want to leave. The downstairs guest living room is also lovely. Emma, the host, was very kind and attentive without ever being intrusive. She even offered to wash some clothes for us.

United KingdomLovely location in Gairloch, only a five minute drive from the pier for excursions. Emma was a great host with lots of breakfast options, with a lovely modern and clean room overlooking the bay. Living room was nice spot to hang out in the evening, and a few options for dinner within walking distance too. Would come again!

United KingdomOnly thing which I could mention is that we stayed in Room 2 - the double room, the toilet/shower room is not ensuite, its located directly opposite the bedroom, it takes a wee bit to get used to, the toilet/shower is immaculate and it is designated only for Room 2 guests so it is fairly private, just not as private as ensuite - thats all I could mention, however we still loved the accomodation.
Liked everything, the entire set up is of top quality, their is no scrimping or scraping with anything. Breakfast was enormous and excellently cooked. You just know your in a top quality establishment.

United StatesFrom the heady scent of fresh lilies in the entryway, to all the artwork on the walls to the matching copper coat hangers and wall sconces, every bit of our stay was a delight to all our senses. If that weren't enough, our host-cooked breakfast was equally enchanting. One of our top guest house experiences ever.
