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.).

United KingdomTimings. Check in was at 4pm and check out at 10am. Most places have check in at 2pm and check out at 11am. Time for breakfast was between 8-9. Room was very hot in the mornings. Blackout curtains would help.
Room was lovely and clean. Breakfast was excellent with home cooked bread.

United KingdomI didn't like having to go home!
The room had a spectacular view of the sea from a huge window complete with relaxing chairs in front of this view. The bed was huge and comfortable with a fan on the ceiling - big bonus for a perimenopausal woman! The bathroom was clean and modern and completed a well equipped and gorgeous room. The breakfast room was directly underneath therefore also offering the stunning sea view. There was a bowl of freshly prepared, colourful fruit salad every morning complete with juice, cafetiere coffee and an exceptionally tasty breakfast. The hosts were warm, friendly and helpful.

United KingdomBeachfront location. The room is so spacious and clean. Wake up in the morning with the view of the beach and the sound of the waves is really the exceptional feeling. The hosts are also very nice and they recommend the places to go and foods to try. We really have enjoyed our stay. Kept No.18 business card with us, to recommend my friends when we are back 😉😍

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn't like during our stay.
Sandra and Ray were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us during our stay. There was a huge choice of breakfast options, including delicious home-made bread and fresh fruit salad. Cooked breakfast was excellent and very well presented. Our room (11) was very large and had a huge bay window with a sea view. The room was kept at a nice temperature throughout our visit in February. We loved it. We will definitely be back.

United KingdomParking can be a problem but a little patience is usually rewarded and it's the same for all the b&b's in the area.
Everything we wanted available at breakfast and cooked items of the best quality. We had stayed for a couple of nights last year and were pleased to find that high standards were being maintained and atmosphere was still warm and friendly. Located just back from the beach and close to the pier with shops, cafes and restaurants close by. Room was a good size and had a nice view of the sea Excellent value for money. Will return.

The perfect host and location. An old fashioned bed and breakfast feel. There was a warm welcome from owner Sandra and we were immediately made comfortable. She personally greeted us at the door, explained details and showed us to our spacious room. We had a great view of the see and a mini balcony. Breakfast was delightful which was freshly made and included homemade bread. She was also very knowledgeable about the town and was warm and personable throughout the stay. Nothing was too much trouble.
