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 StatesDidn't like having to open so many doors to navigate between different rooms
Nice location, comfortable amenities. They kept the window open in the shower which made it very cold. Probably to avoid mold though. Only complaint is when I entered my room I had a surprise roommate. A cat! It was no biggie in leading the stray back outside though. Parking is semi reliable at this location, at least it's free.

CanadaI specifically filtered my search options to only include properties that included free parking. I did this because my husband and I both find it very stressful to not know the parking situation and potentially have to drive around looking for a spot. There is free parking in the neighbourhood around the guesthouse, however it isn't assigned - it's just street parking, and when it's busy it can be very difficult to find a spot. We had to drive around a bit searching. Thankfully our rental car was very small so we were able to squeeze in, but I wouldn't really say that this guesthouse provides parking. The only other thing was, we did not see a single staff member our entire stay. It wasn't really an issue but we did find it a bit odd, more like a hostel than guesthouse.
The location of this guesthouse is great. 15-minute walk to downtown (church, shopping street, etc). I appreciated that both the front door and our room door had automatic locks and keypad entry - it made us feel safer than some guesthouses which leave the front door open at all times. The room was very small, basically just a bed, but it was all we needed.

SwitzerlandNothing really but be ready for door slamming. This is slightly out of control on the guesthouse as reliant on guests to consider others.
The guesthouse was a good location for me. Walking distance to restaurants, shops and the domestic airport. It's also not far from the bus station from the international airport. The bed was really comfortable and the blackout curtains worked really well. Good communication from the staff.

United KingdomIt was very hot inside during the first part of the week as the heating was on when it wasn't really needed.
The kitchen and bathroom kept clean, the kitchen was well equipped so we could cook our own meals and the mini-fridge in our rooms came in handy. It was handy to get to the bus station as well as the city centre. Felt a bit like a student halls of residence.
