Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

CanadaIt was all great, one minor thing- the air conditioner was a bit too loud.
It was an absolute delight to stay in Breakaway Inn. Margaret was a fantastic host answering all possible questions and trying to meet all our needs. She even gave her yoga mat to my husband who needed it for exercises. The property itself is beautifully decorated, comfortable, in a walking proximity to the ocean. The beds, the parking, the kitchenette, the pool are all great as well.

Such a lovely place. Spotlessly clean and well equipped apartment. Equipped enough to cook some meals in, as there is a full sized oven. The shower was also great, really good water pressure. We even had a kettle albeit stove top but it was the first kettle we’d come across on our USA road trip. The owner was lovely, and lives on site and couldn’t be more helpful. The washer and dryer for guests to use was great and means I’m going back to the UK with all clean clothes! The pool area and gardens are lovely. Lauderdale by the sea itself is fantastic, and we are definitely going to come again and stay back at the breakaway guest house as it’s in a perfect location. Highly recommend this place.

United States of AmericaThe only “bad” thing I guess I could say is the corner shower is a bit awkward with the curtain always touching me. But that said the water pressure was fine and it was more annoying than an actual problem.
Margaret is a fantastic host who was kind and accommodating. Easy access to the beach and places to eat. Quiet and safe neighborhood.

CanadaNothing really. All was good.
The property was very well run. It truly was just like the older style properties that we were used to visiting 40 years ago, not these non-descript boring properties we see now. It was perfect to stroll into town for dinner or a drink, only 2 minutes walk but really quiet and safe. We truly loved it.
