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 KingdomIt was like a home away from home. The room was large with a little sitting area where we could eat the breakfast from the fridge. The cafetiere coffee was replenished every day so we enjoyed having that. The ensuite shower room was also a great size with plenty of room to lay toiletries out. The walk in large shower was great too. Towels were changed every day. There was also a fan provided. We felt very comfortable and slept very well each night. The location of the property was a 6 minute walk from the centre of Oban and buses.

United KingdomNothing to dislike. Room quite small but not really a problem for staying overnight on my own. It is up a steep hill and if you have a car then parking might be tricky.
Central location. Homely feel. Nice view. Great to have a fridge in room. Tasteful decor.

United KingdomI never sleep well in a single bed pushed against a wall. If you don't mind that, then all was fine.
They managed to fit everything you might want or need into the room. Good location for the ferry. Great view over town.

United KingdomWould be good to have a choice fir breakfast. Had been told there was somewhere secure to leave bike but had to leave outside on side path. Owner did try to hide it by putting bin in front. Was awkward to get up steps especially with cycle luggage. No offer of help from owner who stood and watched me struggling to get bike in place and secure it. However he allowed me in early to dry off as soaked to skin.
Breakfast was a breakfast put in room fridge night before. Health bar, yoghurt, baby bell cheese, carton of juice a pastry and banana. Good healthy choice but unfortunately don't like yoghurt,health bars (nuts) or choice of pastry.

Great location a couple of minutes to the main port. Traditional british lodgement, very interesting in case you are continental european. The owner who lives at the basement is very kind and he helped us to park the car at the neighbour.

United StatesLots of hills and stairs. But that is what staying in Scotland is. Parking is on the street in front but we never had a problem
I really loved this stay and Oban has a whole. Great room and the host was super thoughtful and outstanding! Oban is famous for its seafood. The best we had in Scotland. It is also the kicking off point for various island tours. We did a 10 hour one and saw the beautiful islands. Host provided a packed breakfast with assorted packaged foods and juices. We were so happy with it as we took an early tour. Town is lovely too.

United KingdomLess, what I did not like, and more on where it could have improved slightly. Room was a little small. Cooked breakfast would have been nice as hot food in the morning is not easy to come by and it is a “b&B”. The “Covid” justification for not having that is now out of date.
The host. Very cosy and friendly atmosphere. Great location. Very clean. Cafetière and selection of decaf and tea was really thoughtful. It was clear that the hosts had thought a lot about what they offer.
