Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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 KingdomI sensed that the walls might be a little thin in some cases and the shared bathroom facilities might not suit all but means that the cost stays very low.
Access was straightforward if anonymous; the room was very comfortable and clean and supplied with generous tea and coffee facilities; there was a very comfortable sitting room and a free coffee machine and welcome snacks; good parking space; the guest house is extremely good value for money.

United KingdomWould be nice if more rooms had en suites ( our single rooms didn’t) but we knew in advance and it wasn’t a big deal. There was a sink in our rooms though. No breakfast available but again we knew in advance. Lots of eateries nearby .
Rooms and house had lovely decor . There was a little sitting room too ( which we didn’t get time to use but could have). Parking for 5 or so cars. We paid to extend our parking over the day which was very much appreciated as we were at an event in town . B&B is very close to the town and also next to lovely Poole Park .

United KingdomThe bathroom was not on suite which wasn’t 100% ideal but unavoidable and not an issue at all ! More complimentary snacks with slight more variety would be nice but again fine the way it was tbh. Cleaners were a little loud calling to eachother up and down the hall especially in the morning when trying to sleep .
The room and all areas were beautifully decorated, so comfortable and clean with all the essentials ! Great coffee machine in additional area and lovely little clean bathroom.

This is a good location close to the town centre and has its own parking. It was very clean and well presented.

United KingdomMy only criticism was that my external private bathroom (as stated situated just across from my room) seemed to get used by other people in the B&B who had shared facilities. Maybe they didn’t realise or ignored the signs but this was a shame.
Really lovely B&B with nicely decorated rooms & spotlessly clean. I appreciated having access to a shared living room & little breakfast room also with complimentary snacks & all the tea/ coffee you could wish for! I paid for a private bathroom across the hall from my room which again was very clean & equipped with a good shower. Check in was smooth & accessed via instructions left. Location was close to train/ bus station & ideal for the theatre where I was working. Local amenities also on doorstep plus a lovely park area over the road.
