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.).

Garbhein B&B was perfect. The property was modern, bright, fresh and very clean. Our bedroom was spacious & spotless including the En-suite which had a wonderfully powerful shower. There were plenty of towels available as well as more than enough tea, coffee, hot chocolate & shortbread. Our breakfast was wonderfull. Booked the evening before (although not necessary) the menu was endless with the usual fayre and more. Delicious & filling.

United StatesFrom the moment we arrived, we knew we had found something special. This bed and breakfast offered the perfect combination of comfort, charm, and warm hospitality. Our hosts were incredibly welcoming—friendly, attentive, and full of local knowledge. They gave us fantastic recommendations for nearby walks and things to do, helping us truly experience the best of the village. The breakfast was beautifully prepared with fresh, local ingredients, and served with care. Whether it was hearty cooked options, or fresh fruit and coffee, everything was delicious and thoughtfully presented. We can't wait to return. If you're looking for a memorable and relaxing getaway with a personal touch, this is the place!

AustraliaCertainly not the fault of the hosts but there are limited food or amenity options nearby, need to travel half hour north to Oban for any options. The listing mentioned a patio and dining table available in the "units" where in reality this is a shared space in the hosts home and other guests as well and so may not be appropriately labelled for people looking for an actual unit type setting where you can prepare your own food. It was a lovely homestay but I think the word homestay needs to be more clearly stated in the listing instead of the term "unit".
Gorgeous views from a beautiful little village type room share about half hour drive south of Oban. Very friendly and attentive hosts, lovely and clean room. Excellent breakfast cooked for you each morning.

United KingdomThe only downside was the lack of places for dinner within walking distance. One hotel and not always open. However, it was easy enough to have a substantial lunch while out and about and just snack in the evening.
This was one of the best we've stayed in. The hosts were lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. A nice quiet location with amazing views, perfect for a chill which is what we needed. Our room was very comfortable and spacious. Breakfasts were delicious with plenty of choice and all cooked as we waited. Lots of places to visit within a short drive.

United KingdomI arrived to a warm welcome from Susan and Les, who helped carry my case to the room and ensured that I had everything I needed. The room was cosy and the bed comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean and there was plenty of hot water in the en-suite which had recently been upgraded. The Full Scottish Breakfast was freshly cooked and there was a good choice of available food. I would thoroughly recommend this B & B for a one-night stay when passing through or for a few nights as a centre for touring in the Oban area. As an aside, there are some fine views along the road beyond Melford Villiage! These translate into great sunset pictures at the right time of night in the right weather.
