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 StatesThe only thing I didn’t like was having to leave - it was a truly delightful stay, and I can’t wait to go back.
What a delightful guest house - and what a charming host! As a slightly mobility-impaired older single traveler I appreciated the stair-free access to the building from the sidewalk and the ground-floor location of my spacious room. Everything was impeccably clean, water pressure was good, towels were large and fluffy, bed and bedding were top-notch, and heat and hot water were on point. And my room was remarkably quiet despite facing the road. Host Emmet is terrific. He offered to pick me up from the train station when I had a late-ish arrival, checked every day to see if I needed anything (towels, tea or coffee supplies, etc.) and was a pleasure to deal with. He even printed out some documents I needed for my onward travels. Definitely one of the most hands-on and welcoming hosts I’ve dealt with. The location is ideal for exploring central Westport on foot. Numerous bars, restaurants and shops are well within walking distance (even with a cane). I’ll admit I’m the world’s worst tourist, so I didn’t explore much beyond the town center (I’d come to see friends I’d met in Cyprus), but I expect all the famous sites are easily accessible. And I’ll bet Emmet can tell you how to access them!

United StatesCharming, quiet, comfortable. Just up the road from Westport's shops, restaurants, and bars, but removed enough for a relaxing night's sleep. Emmet, the proprietor, kept us informed before we arrived, greeted us kindly, and was available if we had a question. We hope to return to Westport and stay at the Dun Maeve Guest House when we do.

NetherlandsTo nobody's fault! It is an older building so it does feel a bit damp. But I was out and about most of the time so no trouble.
Emmet is a very welcoming, friendly and helpful host. Accessible for questions and helps to think in solutions for, example, public transport. The room is spacious with wardrobe and coffee/tea facilities. Nice shower. Very central so easy to walk. The map is a little off in distance it's closer to the centre. Gate locked with a code so feels safe. Gasstation around the corner that serves a nice breakfast or just to buy a late night snack.

United StatesFantastic and simple guest house experience! Emmett is a wonderful, welcoming, and communicative host who made check in a breeze and gave us awesome recommendations around town and helped us with cat parking for the day. The room was comfortable, the water was hot, and everything was super clean. The place is located right next to the bustling streets of Westport yet still quiet at night and we couldn't have been happier with the location. We'd absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.
