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 are 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 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.).

Very detailed can see the amount of time and effort that’s gone into making the stay as homely and welcoming as possible. The details like glass covers, the women’s silicon makeup scrub brush, the smell of a clean bathroom when you enter, accommodated for me being gluten free, I was able to contact the owner to ask for advice where to eat.

United KingdomAmazing B&B with a friendly and helpful host. Nothing but praise from us, the place was immaculate and we were welcomed and made to feel right at home. Large room with a luxurious king bed and super soft linens, stylish and comfortable common area to relax in, and a fabulous breakfast served in the morning. We also had the first floor front room that looked out over the water, so our view waking up to the sunrise was very beautiful.

United KingdomI didn’t like the fact that I had to leave.
Suenos Guesthouse is a little gem. It’s a cliche to say that someplace has ‘thought of everything,’ but in this case it’s true. A real home from home, run by folks who can’t do enough for you. I went to hunker down and finish a writing project on a chilly weekend in December and could have stayed a week longer than I did. Moody, dramatic vistas of the sea from the front window; cosy afternoons by the fire; impeccably clean and well-appointed rooms. Perfection.

United KingdomThere isn't a single thing to dislike about this place.
To start with I would like to say a huge thank you to Neil & Teresa who are the most amazing hosts, they really can't do enough for you. When arriving at the Suenos Guesthouse I received an extremely warm welcome from Neil, he gave me a quick and detailed run down on what they offer and lots of local advice including the best local restaurants and things to do etc. The decor is lovely and the clenliness in nothing short of exceptional! The breakfast was served by Teresa and it was incredible, I could taste that the food was to a very high standard and I finished everything that was on the plate (to add i'm a fussy eater). The fruit salad tasted so fresh and was very nice. The room was stunning and the bed was so comfortable which gave us both such a good nights sleep. The En-Suite bathroom was very lovely, being a plumbing & heating engineer it's the first thing I notice. Welcomed with a huge spacious bathroom which included a lovely traditional free standing roll top bath and a seperate shower cubicle (best of both worlds). The hotel is in a great location and we didn't hear a single noise all night. Will 100% be back again and I couldn't recommend Suenos Guesthouse enough 10/10 Aaron & Ashlee

United KingdomOur room was in the attic, the stairs were steep and the last part of the staircase had a rope 'handrail' attached to the wall. I found that hard work. I'm a 67 yr old who should excercise more! But to be honest after a couple of days of negotiating the stair case it became easier!
I liked the cleanliness, comfortable bed, the decor, the breakfast, the Proprietors and the location.
