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 KingdomWe found no faults at all with the accommodation
Our stay at Gramarvin was faultless. The owner welcomed us, and was always available if needed. The room was spacious, extremely comfortable and absolutely spotless, with everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The continental breakfast was generous and of good quality, and having it served in the room suited us very well. Lastly, the view from the room was outstanding!

United KingdomOnly down-side was access via steep steps and slopes to front door & handrail only on lower and upper flight of steps. Not ideal for anyone with mobility issues or shortness of breath on exertion! Then staircase up to room.
Friendly welcome from Mary. Beautiful views over Oban to Kerrera and Mull. Clean & comfortable room. Delicious breakfast.

United KingdomThere was not anything to dislike about the property. The hosts Mary and Joe were friendly and helpful. Always found time to chat. Yes you had to walk uphill to get to the property and yes there was quite a few stairs at the property but we were aware of that at the time of booking. The view from the window was worth the climb.
The room and bathroom were both beautiful, immaculate and well presented. The view from our room was amazing. We had a gorgeous window seat that we sat on each evening just watching the view, boats and ferries, very peaceful.

United KingdomNothing. We would recommend taking only an overnight bag in due to the steps up to the property but the view from the bedroom window compensates for that.

United StatesThere was NOTHING we didn't like. It was perfect.
Mary, the proprietor could not have been more friendly or accommodating. We requested a take-away breakfast on Day Two of our stay. She supplied us with enough food for two breakfasts for two days! The room/bathroom was immaculately clean. The view of the Oban harbor was spectacular.

United KingdomThere was nothing i didn't like.
Breakfast served in the room was perfect. I felt 8.30 was a bit early for me personally for breakfast, we asked for this to be a bit later and this was not a problem. We loved to come back after our day out and chill in the room with a glass of wine with the most spectacular views over Oban and the Islands..
