Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

New ZealandYou do need to search a bit for the location on the street (given the unique use of names instead of numbers!)
Naren (host) and family are very welcoming. Open access to the hot water, microwave and cups/bowls/cutlery in kitchen. Shared bathroom next to room. Walkable to Thorpe Park, a corner store and (slightly further) Staines. On the river with beautiful outside area to sit and eat.

I was only here for one night for work in the area and had a very comfortable and pleasant stay. Dr Narem was very accommodating and helpful, the room was comfortable and clean and the property is in a beautiful location by the river. The garden is the show stopper, I had my dinner by the river overlooking the Thames. I'd stay here again and recommend for business or pleasure.

United KingdomNothing really, it was all fine and good value for the price.
This place was convenient for the airport, the hosts were welcoming and hospitable, we felt relaxed in their home and we slept well before an early flight the next day. We asked Anita if we could eat with them in the evening and she prepared us an exceptional meal which we both really enjoyed.

United KingdomSuch a warm and friendly welcome from our host Anita. We loved the fantastic home-made Indian food… Such a treat! The room was spacious and comfortable, and the location was perfect. We sat by the river at the bottom of the garden for awhile, which was a real treat as the sun went down.

United KingdomI was a bit constrained as I needed space for walking my spaniel, but the house has locked gates, so I needed to ask each time I left and returned to the property. The property is also beautifully clean and light-coloured inside. So, it is not really conducive to having a potentially muddy dog indoors. I guess this is my problem, which we all managed really well.
I was really welcomed and made to feel their home was my home. The property is really lovely, and they were very accepting of my dog as well. The position is outstanding, with a lovely garden and a frontage directly on the Thames. In addition, there are dog walks along the river towards Staines and dog friendly pub (the Swan).

United KingdomNot so much didn't like, but a couple of small things would have upgraded my already pleasant experience. The shower had a non-slip mat which was good to have, but personally, it would have been even better if it had been twice the length - don't know if such a thing is available on the market. In the bedroom, a bedside light would be helpful.
Nice to have secure parking. Hosts very friendly. Sparkling bathroom, with modern, and very importantly, easy to use shower. Heat of shower water excellent (not too hot). Bed comfortable, especially with electric blanket.

United KingdomThe location pin on booking.com isn't in quite the right place, but the host's instructions resolved this.
This overnight stop (on my way to Hesthrow) was a revelation. The experience was exactly as described and indicated by the very high rating score. The home-cooked breakfast was so enjoyable and set me up for the day. In a world of bland hotels, it makes an exciting change to have even high expectations exceeded.
