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 StatesLinda our host was wonderful. She has a real knack for making you feel welcomed and comfortable. The breakfasts were wonderful and nicely presented. Location was great. we were able to walk the historic downtown easily. Linda's restaurant suggestions were also great. We highly recommend a trip to New Bern and a stay at Meadows Inn.

United StatesEverything about the Meadows Inn was excellent from check in until the time we left. The breakfast was amazing as well as the afternoon treats. There’s all types of beverages available and a screened in porch to enjoy them on. The bed was very comfortable and let us rest after a long day of walking. The location is within walking distance to downtown with lots of shops and restaurants. We’ll definitely be returning!

Linda could not have been more friendly or attentive and her staff was great, too. Our room was beautiful and very comfortable with an excellent bed and linens. Breakfast was scrumptious every morning and Linda went to great lengths to meet my dietary needs as well as those of other guests. We also loved the location of Meadows Inn. It is in the historical area, a hop and a skip from the river front and within walking distance from everything we wanted to do and see. If you are lucky enough to stay at the Meadows Inn, you can expect to be treated to Linda's freshly baked goodies during the day as well as having access to tea, coffee, and more any time of the day. We booked our next stay before we left 😀

United StatesThere wasn't anything that we didn't like!
Everything about the Meadows Inn is perfection. From the moment you step onto the quintessential, southern back porch, perfect for lounging and reading, you feel at home. When you walk through the door and are met by Linda, you know you're home. She treats her guests like family. The breakfasts are delicious, not to mention the scrumptious, daily, fresh baked treats that are available in the dining room throughout the day. The rooms are beautifully furnished, with comfy beds that just beckon sweet dreams at the end of the day. The location rounds out the complete package - close to the river for morning sunrise walks or fishing from the pier and near to historic homes, buildings, churches, and shops. We won't stay anywhere else when in New Bern!

United StatesThe Innkeeper, Linda, was there to greet me and was warm and helpful. The three breakfasts during my stay were wonderful- pancakes, an omelette, and French toast, all with a lovely starter, fresh brewed coffee, choice of juice and garnished with fresh fruit. There were always home baked cookies or brownies available. The room was comfortable, lovely and clean. I slept well and had a wonderful stay!

United StatesRoom was lovely, very clean, and super comfortable. Great bed, great bathroom/shower, fabulous breakfasts. Would consider myself fortunate to plan another trip to New Bern and book this room again. Perfectly good for a person with some mobility issues (note—I think a few stairs are at both entrances), although I’d prefer a slightly higher toilet. But that’s a pretty small issue in the face of a lovely, wonderful stay with great coffee and lovely, delicious breakfasts, not to mention warm and helpful hosts.

United StatesThe fact that we had to leave after only four nights.
I am hard-pressed to think of anything that I would improve. Of all the Airbnb‘s and B&Bs that we have stayed in over the years, my wife, and I agree that this has been our very favorite. Linda and her staff were wonderful, the food was excellent, the afternoon warm brownies and cookies were scrumptious. I don’t know where they got their sheets, but they were the most comfortable sheets I’ve ever slept in. The location was ideal, walk to the river, walk to shopping and restaurants, walk to the Tryon Palace, walk everywhere!
