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 reviewI needed to change room. As I wasn't getting a WiFi signal. Michael had sorted the problem in an hour and actually moved me into a better room. It's a great location,close to everything Thanks again Micheal.
No WiFi in first room. Guests need to clean up after themselves.. Walking into a poo stained toilet at 7am wasn't pretty.

Verified reviewThe two bed room was not big enough with our two suitcases. We also weren't aware of sharing a bathroom.
Hi sorry your stay was not what you expected. You rated us a 5 as your room wasn't big enough and shared toilet. You booked the small twin room and our site says shared bathroom ( we don't advertise ensuite). We have 5 rooms and 2 toilet shower rooms. We received your rating on something that was not our fault. In future if you are booking again on this site please look at what you are booking. This makes it easier for both parties. Thanks again regards Number One Rooms.

Verified reviewThe location was great to get into Edinburgh. The town of Haddington is quiet and charming with enough options for food around. For the price we paid, the accommodation was as expected: simple. There is a kitchen where we were able to prepare some food and hot drinks. The bathrooms have hot water and are fairly clean. If I’m not mistaken, someone from staff came in ever day to check on the bathrooms and kitchen and have them a basic clean.
The room was a little gloomy and had a musky smell. The mattress was very worn and therefore rather uncomfortable. I killed at least 10 moths during our stay, so they are definitely nesting somewhere and should be get rid of. The floor was a little sticky, so I was wearing shoes at all times. The bathrooms are shared, which wasn’t a big problem because we could choose between the bathroom in the basement and the first floor so we almost always found one that was not occupied. But of course it takes away from a feeling of comfort not to have your own bathroom.

Verified reviewLocation was great and they let us check in early
The shared bathroom was mouldy, shower had a lot of mildew, only blinds in the bedroom which blocked out very little light, very noisy when other guests were moving around and noise from outside in the early morning.

Verified reviewClean and comfortable right in the middle of town, all you need for an overnight and a kitchen available to use which I hadn't noticed when booking so this a bonus. Nice and quiet too!

Verified reviewOwner was very welcoming with information and updates prior to my stay. Easy information to find the property and access was as described
WiFi was intermittent (could have been the storm). Property was a bit echoey so could hear other residents so not a great night's sleep.
