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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 StatesWe had another friend who tried to book this same property on Booking.com and was not successful. We were all together when we booked months earlier and she was not given a confirmation number and was forced to book away from us at another hotel. When we checked in, she was with us and was made to feel like she had done something wrong. There was a problem between Booking.com and this property and it was NOT her responsibility. This part was unfortunate because we’d’ve preferred to be staying under one roof, but without a confirmation—similar to what we got—she had already made other arrangements. The person at check in didn’t seem to believe her. Meanwhile Emma was left with an empty room. Maybe consider booking directly and not through Booking.com?
We found this property to be exactly what we wanted - centrally located, tastefully appointed and comfortable room, and quiet. Everything and more! I only wish the bistro had been open on the morning of our departure so we could’ve enjoyed that!

HungaryThis stay was for my wife for her birthday; the following is her review. a gorgeous room right in the centre of lovely Winterthur. Superbly clean, very friendly staff and such a comfy bed. The price is a true bargain for Switzerland considering the central location and generous size of the room. Loved the inclusions such and a small fridge, bathtub, and tea/coffee making items. They even left me a little cake with candle and card for my birthday. Lush garden views and everything at your doorstep.

The location and the fact that we had a garden room with a fan as the weather was hot. Small hotel with only a few rooms. Within walking distance of train station. Very pleasant staff.

FranceRoom #3 is an attic, so not necessarily a good idea if you are tall. The bed is not next to the wall and there is no headboard so reading in bed is difficult. Be very careful if you use the safe, which is awkwardly tucked away under a very low shelf in a corner and thus difficult to operate. We could not open it back alone.
Great location + view on a beautiful and quiet garden + attentionate staff + there were a fridge and a kettle in the room.

Perfect location. Attractive house. Extremely quiet, rooms look out on garden. Very spacious with large bathroom too. Comfortable large bed and tasteful decor. The key safe systrm for late arrival seemed complicated but worked well. Lovely popular bistro on site and kettle, (herbal) tea and and crockery in the room.

SwitzerlandPotential guests might like to be aware that other than the small cafe which is part of the B&B, there's not a reception or lobby area. The staff leave the premises by 19h00, but take great care to ensure guests understand how to access the rooms after hours. This arrangement worked fine for me, but it may not suit every traveller's preference.
I stayed in the garden room which was quite simple but lovely, with private access to a beautiful green garden with several places to sit. Though the B&B is in the middle of the old town, the room was blissfully quiet, even when the garden doors and windows were open. Room had a small fridge, kettle with tea/coffee, and plates and cutlery for 2, plus a small table and 2 chairs - so one could easily bring in food and be able to eat in comfort. The staff were super-friendly and helpful, and I'd definitely stay again if the opportunity arises. BTW, the cheesecake in their cafe is heavenly!

South AfricaExcellent location on a beautiful street filled with cafes and restaurants. On the other side of the building it is peaceful with lots of trees. I wasn’t expecting a fridge in the room, or a kettle with coffee and tea. This was wonderful. The place was clean and everyone was friendly. This is probably the best place I have ever stayed at.
