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.).

AustraliaThe room is on the top floor at roof level up lots of steps. Not suitable for those of limited mobility. I have left recommendations for improvement in the visitors book in the room. Bit of a list. Location not ideal for visiting the city. But this is reflected in the cost compared to city rooms. Owners' kitchen is on ground floor, so odours rise right through the building up the stairs well.
Pleasant host Comfy bed Odd selection of breakfast foods for self preparation

The property had good parking and was easy to find. Host was welcoming and always able to be contacted via booking.com or mobile if needed even when we arrived late on the evening due to traffic. There was some breakfast foods available and facilities to use them aswell.

AustraliaAlthough we had a choice of 2 buses almost at the doorstep, it takes time, waiting for the bus and then to get into town. We suggest My Room have more information on the bus timetable options.
The warm welcome by Mani, the owner who helped us carry our heavy baggage up 2 flights of stairs. The room was bright and looked out onto the tree lined street. The breakfast supplies were just adequate and fine for 1-2 nights stay.

AustraliaThe room needs a table and chairs, there's nowhere to make tea and coffee except the windowsill. The orientation of the room doesn't work well if you want to watch TV. It needs a toaster and a full set of cutlery, a sharp knife and cutting board.
The hosts are very friendly and helpful. It is situated on a direct bus route into Edinburgh with on street parking out the front. There was plenty of food for a continental breakfast. When the hosts realised I didn't eat cereal they provided me with additional fruit. We ordered takeaway Indian from the menu in the room, very tasty and delivered to our room!
