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 StatesThe location of the Inn is terrific and it's very unique. Definitely one of a kind. Wonderful homemade breakfast with excellent coffee! The grounds are beautiful with exceptional plantings and very peaceful. My bed was extremely comfortable. Great water pressure in the shower - always a bonus in an older facility! John and Marie are friendly, talented hosts who I enjoyed getting to know. They are the main reason I will be back. :)

United StatesThe exit from the Inn is in a blind curve, and there are signs up, but I nearly got hit by a car. The bed was so high that we almost could not get in without the help of a step at the base,
Excellent breakfast!! Our room was in front of a fire pit on the bottom floor of the Inn.

United StatesWe went to take a shower late night and we saw there was none shower gel in the bathroom (only shampoo). I know for sure staff would bring right away, but we didn't want to go to front desk for it, so we used our own soap bar.
Staff (Jon and Marie) is wonderful - they made you feel like it's home! I was in a pet friendly room with double queen beds, which had enough space to accommodate everyone (they even include a water/food bowl for your pet). Microwave and mini refrigerator also a nice and welcome plus! Breakfast was superb - much better than most chain hotels we see around.

United StatesThe driveway was a bit steep, to get out of in the morning. But, I guess I'm not used to being in a mountainous area, I'm a flat lander, lol.
The balcony was great, sitting and looking at the mountains. Breakfast was delicious, and well layed out. Coffee was terrific, and was enjoyable. The hosts were friendly, and accommodating.

United StatesMovement from the room upstairs was a little loud, but not enough to bother us or keep us awake. I don't have any negative feedback really.
Location is wonderful, just up the hill from downtown Bryson City (persons with limited mobility may find the walk uphill hard). The Inn itself is very nice, very pretty, lovely grounds. Rooms are very spacious, great heating, good shower, all clean and well kept. Breakfast was delicious and just the right amount of food (somtimes Inns can give you too much). They thought of everything and are exceptionally accomodating. Best of all, how good they are with dogs. The room came with a little box of things for our pup (bowl, towels etc), which we really appreciated. Innkeepers are very pleasant and helpful.
