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.).

Fantastic beautifully well kept house, lovely room, lovely host, great breakfast, home made cake, Netflix, wi fi, great selection of teas and coffees, water, biscuits. Absolutely everything thought of. Only a short walk into Shrewsbury and it was a better decision than staying above a pub. Great nights sleep.

United KingdomConvenient location - although street parking I found a space close to the house. Handy to walk into town. A very friendly welcome with the offer of homemade cakes. Helpful information also given. My room was very comfy and clean with evident attention to detail and potential needs of guests. Very good choice for breakfast and well looked after.

United KingdomNoisy fan in room 1. But very grateful for a fan!
Tea and cake when we arrived. Really appreciated just having a face cloth with the fluffy towels. Also it was hot weather and we had a separate sheet which was particularly nice. Rooms were beautiful lovely comfortable beds. Sewing kit and emery board in the room. Breakfast choice was amazing. Catered well for our bikes. Love this guest house and will go back.

United KingdomThe warm friendly welcome on our arrival from Louise was a great start. The whole place from curb appeal to interior and our room was well maintained, spotlessly clean and has a cosy homely feel. Delicious freshly baked cake was an absolute bonus. Breakfast options were plentyful and all dietary requirements catered for. Breakfast was prepared fresh individually each morning with quality ingredients sourced locally by Louise and Peter. A cosy home from home stay well situated within easy walking distance from the beautiful town centre.
