How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewEverything was wonderful. John and Marsha were wonderful host. The rustic timbers were very nice features of the construction. Rooms are nice and spacious, we had mystic mountain our room. Unbelievable great views from our balcony. The jacuzzi tub in the huge bathroom was awesome. Breakfast was wonderful sitting out on the nice deck enjoying nature. Can't wait to go back.
Thank you for your kind review.

Verified reviewBreakfast was great but note that it is only served between 8:30 & 9:00am. Snacks and drinks were available 24-7. John & Marsha were very pleasant and had good information about the area. Loved our Balcony.
The only thing was the steep, winding road up to the Lodge.
Happy you enjoyed your mountain getaway with us. Yes, when you have a mountaintop inn the road up is typically going to be steep!

Verified reviewMy husband and I absolutely love coming here. John and Marsha are wonderful hosts, and they go above and beyond to make their guests feel at home. This is definitely a place you have to visit for yourself to get the full experience. You won't be disappointed with views or hospitality. We are already planning to go back for another stay.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a nice review. Much appreciated!

Verified reviewThe view from the terrace was stunning and the room very comfortable. John and Marsha were friendly hosts and happy to provide information about the area. Complimentary drinks and snacks were welcome.
It was the most expensive bed and breakfast that we stayed in on our road trip and we didn’t feel that it provided the same quality of breakfast and home made extras that other bed and breakfasts did.
So happy to hear you enjoyed everything about your stay with us! However you felt it wasn’t a great value 8/10? We’ll reach out to you to better understand what we could have done to make it a better value.
