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 KingdomIt was all good
The host gave clear directions for arriving at the location, and was very friendly and helpful, including providing fresh milk. The accommodation was lovely, as in the photos and the continental breakfast was a great start to the day. It is better than a usual B&B, with a larger room, a small fridge, and an outdoor seating area, where I ate breakfast. The bed was very comfortable and the location was peaceful. Parking is next to the accommodation and is off road and safe. Banbury is a great town to visit. I would certainly like to stay there again. Thank you.

United KingdomWe liked everything about the stay
Belinda was a very welcoming and fantastic host. The accommodation is clean, airy and spacious. The bed was extremely comfortable and in the boiling hot weather the ceiling windows were great for keeping the room cool. The breakfast was delicious and so lovely to eat outside in the garden area. Surroundings were very peaceful and perfect for relaxing. Great to have parking right next to the accommodation. Easy access to tourist attractions like Silverstone and Bicester Village.

Belinda, a very welcoming host who provides a wonderful continental style breakfast each morning with fresh coffee to start your day. Location is extremely pretty, peaceful and the property is ideal for a few days away or could certainly be used as a base if exploring the area for longer. Spotlessly clean with a large comfortable bed to aid a good nights sleep. Perfect in every way.

United KingdomNothing at all. I have no complaints
Beautiful little place which is in a great location for exploring, whilst offering peace and quiet. Belinda was a fantastic host. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She provided a beautiful continental breakfast too, delivered to the door in the morning. Absolutely delicious! It has a huge and very comfortable bed, which offers a lovely night's sleep. I can't fault The Garage at all and I would love to return again and again.

United Kingdomafter much thought, I couldn’t find anything that I didn’t like about this props.
if you are looking for a relaxing stay and you lucky enough to find an available date for “the garage” then you must book this wonderful place! so relaxing, comfortable and perfect for either a working visit or a base to explore the surrounding area. The luxury duck down bedding and pillows were a delight, which enabled me to enjoy a blissful nights sleep rarely experienced. Furthermore, the hot, blissful, rain shower was so therapeutic, and at the same time invigorating, to prepare me for the rigours my day ahead. I can only hope that this honest appraisal doesn’t deny me the availability to stay here again in the future.

United KingdomMy only constructive feedback would be to perhaps provide an options form for breakfast prior to visit. Not that we didn't enjoy breakfast because we both thought it was lovely and enjoyed it very much, its only incase someone has allergies or something. But honestly, overall we loved it!
Everything was wonderful, the place was clean and well presented. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and friendly, they made us feel entirely welcome. The location was beautiful and quiet, and we visited a pub recommended by the hosts, which was very yummy with huge portions. All in all, I was a wonderful weekend getaway and would highly recommend!

United KingdomThe whole experience of staying at the garage was incredible. Our host Belinda, was very welcoming, incredibly kind and she was always available for anything you may need. The bed is the comfiest thing I've ever slept on and the village that the garage was situated was so relaxed and peaceful. The whole chalet was very clean and beautifully decorated, and everything was available for what you may need for a break away, such as towels, hair driers, iron etc. The breakfast was also amazing, and it was nice to sit infront of the chalet and look at the gorgeous gardens. I highly reccomend anyone to stay here as you will certainly won't be dissapointed. And on a side note, Belindas dog Winston is incredibly cute, he likes cuddles and saying hello, so another bonus for you to book here.

United KingdomThere was only an overheard (waterfall) shower with no handset. Great to wash hair, not so easy if you don’t want to wash your hair every day! There was one arm chair, and one desk type chair, and extra armchair would have been good.
Set in a beautiful village, unfortunately without a pub, but plenty in nearby villages. The garage is set in the garden of a house, and it’s very quiet. Superb super sized bed with lovely bed linen. Very airy and light property. The instructions to get there were easy to follow. Belinda was a lovely, friendly host.
