Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United StatesThe Inn is well maintained and a historically beautiful building. Our room was large and air conditioner was quiet and kept the room very comfortable especially with the unusual warm weather. Super great hot water for the shower!! Breakfast was also wonderful and served with much kindness and efficiency. Andy and the staff were attentive and made it feel like we were visiting good friends! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

United StatesIf you're looking for the quintessential B&B experience, this is it. The place is located right in Bar Harbor and easy to walk to everything. Easy to access Acadia too. The staff was all friendly and the breakfast was very gourmet and delicious, there was complimentary wine and cheese in the evening too. It's a nice, older building with lots of antiques.

The breakfast was amazing, and our host was very informative of the area, engaging, and a great cook. The Inn was filled with antiques and collectables, a pleasure to be in. In addition, there was 24x7 coffee, water, and open areas. Plenty of on-premises parking as well. We will certainly stay there again!

United StatesThere was no additional seating in our room except for the weird lounger at the end of the bed. It was antique but not really comfortable. Of course, we weren't really expecting to stay in our room most of a day riding out a tropical storm. I had to find something to write here - so lame as it is, that is my only complaint.
The innkeeper (Lane) was fantastic. She was professional and helpful. The breakfast was also very good. The rooms are nicely appointed with antiques but modern bathroom amenities to make the stay comfortable but also cozy.
