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 KingdomThe lack of pressure in the shower was a negative surprise. I had to buy dry shampoo as it would have been impossible to rinse my hair.
Ideally located, short distance from the town centre. Cozy hotel. Amy and Dave are lovely, and we fell at home straight away. Very generous breakfast and attention to our needs. Amy surprised us with a bottle of bubbly when we told her we came to celebrate our wedding anniversary. How kind of her! We also enjoyed a few drinks, with Dave at the bar. Great selection of drinks and cheaper than in a pub! We will come back and next time we’ll make sure we stay in the big suite with terrace! Thank you for a very pleasant stay 😊

Absolutely wonderful place. Amy and Dave were the best of host's you could ever meet. The room was fine but the bed was top notch ( I have spinal injuries) and was the best sleep. Will most definitely be back!

United KingdomDavid & Amy were very welcoming and our room was really lovely, with a huge balcony looking over to the sea (deluxe room). We loved it. Breakfast was tasty and Amy was very helpful with suggestions of things to do. There is a small bar on the property, manned by David, which was great. And we left with some of Amy's homemade banana cake!

SpainWe loved our stay and other guests we regulars over and over ways a good sign. The front terrace facing the sunset is the perfect place for an evening drink.
The owners were amazing and wonderful breakfast, nothing was too trouble and full of useful information of what to do and where to go. We got very spoilt upon leaving when Amy our host presented us with a beautiful box of her homemade famous cake to take home. Thank you x

United KingdomDave and Amy were both incredibly warm and welcoming during our (my gf and I) visit. When we arrived at the hotel, we met Dave in the Dining area/Bar and he was very polite in greeting us before showing us to our room. The room was very clean, the bed was soft (which isnt the case in a lot of hotels, but definitely was here) and the view out onto the water was breathtaking; even moreso because the sun was out for our entire time there. The first morning of our stay we got to meet Amy, who welcomed us to the dining area; and she was very cheerful and greeted us with a smile. We didnt have time for cooked breakfast the first day as we were doing a parkrun, but when we mentioned this to Amy she gifted us a bag filled with treats that she had baked (as she owns a bakery on the island) to give us energy on our run; which was heartwarming and very kind...and Amy, if youre reading this, we both thought the snacks were delicious. We did have time for a full breakfast the second day of our trip, which was cooked beatifully by Amy. Honestly, it was a lovely place to stay with two incredible hosts; thank you to both Dave and Amy for being so nice and welcoming to us to your home.

Owners were very friendly, helpful and recommended lots to do on the island. They even checked ferry times for us and really went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend!
