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 StatesCould not get in touch with the Inn-Keeper upon check in. We figured things out (no key!) but would have preferred to "know" we were in the right room. Other than that, the experience was fine.
No breakfast, but we did have coffee. Loved the Inn and furnishings which were appropriate for the age of the building. Very comfortable stay.

United StatesBooking.com says this property provides a full breakfast but it does not. I have been in contact with Booking.com's "customer service" but they have so far declined to make this right or even to correct the listing. I am unlikely to ever use Booking.com again and would recommend that others avoid it as well. There are other places to make bookings that stand behind their promises.
Breakfast was not provided, although the Booking.com listing clearly states that a full breakfast is provided. Apparently, the innkeeper has tried to correct this, but Booking.com continues to provide wrong information. They claim that the confirmation I received says "no meal plan" but I never received that and in any case, that would have come AFTER my non-refundable payment was made. June was very nice about this an upgraded us to a nicer room to make up for it. At this point, my argument is with Booking.com.

United StatesThe description needs to be updated. We were expecting to find a spa, and you have to book a long time in advance to have a massage. There is no sauna. The name is bed and breakfast, and we only had coffee and biscuits, a little deceiving expecting to find a full breakfast and only seeing coffee
I like the bedroom decoration and the vintage look overall of the house. Very green outside, perfect for relaxing

United Statesthere is a question whether there is air conditioning. we just happen to be staying when the night was in the fifty’s and she said to open window. when we got there the room was a little humid. The thermostat is under her control. I’m thinking the rooms are not air conditioned enough to be comfortable in the summer months. This explains the bad reviews I have read about no air conditioning. we had both windows open and a fan. Also no full breakfast. Coffee. yogurt and croissants.
It was like going back in time. the setting was beautiful.

United StatesThe room did not have air-conditioning and opening the windows did not cool it off very much.
The Booking.com advertised a full breakfast was included with the stay. Bed and BREAKFAST, however, there was only coffee served. Host stated this was a Booking.com error. Another B and B just down the street was at the same price but we choose this one for the uniqueness of the home. Should not be advertised as a B & B! Just a Bed....

United StatesI didn't like having to surrender my $140 because I had some travel issues and wouldn't get there until 10pm.
Limited time to check in. between 4 and 6pm. I called the site several times (6) and the voicemail was full, no one answered the phone. On the 7th attempt, a woman answered, wasn't truly helpful and kind of rude, like I was bothering her...

United StatesThere was no one there to let me in upon arrival- locked out. I had to call to get code entry. There was no email sent with said code. No AC, no breakfast, no water, uncomfortable bed. I was the only one there yet they gave me the smallest room. It was surface cleaned. The rug could use a deep clean. Seriously- get a keurig machine so your guests can make their own coffee. And a bottle of water in the room would have been humane- especially since there is no AC, which I was unaware of. Even a mini fridge would have been nice.
