How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe manager was wonderful as was the cleaner. Pleasant, helpful and made us feel very welcome.
The only thing I didn't like was the size of the ensuite. The toilet was squashed between the shower and basin. Hardly able to fit.

Verified reviewGreat value for Money! The guest House gives great Access to the Touristy area of Edinburgh, the room was Clean, and comfortable with enough space to put down the bags, there was an Electric kettle Provided, bath room was shared with one other Party, which was Fine, there was a fridge in the corridor, very practical. Staff was friendly and helpful, Shops and Cafés etc are Close by. Furniture is a Bit old and used, but otherwise great stay
As far as i can Tell there was no lift which could be a Problem for Immobilie Persons.

Verified reviewThe room is really big with high ceilings, making it feel very spacious. The room is equipped with all basic stuff you will need for a simple stay. Don't expect anything fancy but with the price it's really good enough. It's located in a quiet neighborhood but close enough to the city centre. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Nothing really

Verified reviewIt's outside of the tourist area which is a great benefit. After a day of the crowded downtown it's very nice to get back to a quiet neighborhood with local restaurants nearby. I highly recommend going to Saint Mary's coffee shop when they open at 8:30, only a few blocks away for a good and fairly priced breakfast. Quiet, wi-fi, good food, nice staff and a good cause. In the other direction from Atlas Guest House are the Botanical Gardens - also a fine place for a respite from the more touristic areas.

Little things not done. Bins emptied daily. No toilet rolls left. No milk and tea bags left. I know the buildings are old but when walking to the toilet the slide windows rattled really loudly
