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 KingdomWe couldn't find the light switch for the bathroom - after visiting reception we found it was a pull cord in the bathroom (but couldn't find it in the dark room initially - we had to use a torch) which was a bit grubby and could have done with being replaced and a proper handle adding to the cord
For the price paid, I was a little anxious about staying here, however, although basic, the room was clean, comfortable and cosy and had everything we needed for the night's stay

United StatesCompared to the Inn, not as comfortable. Prefer double beds.
We stayed at the Lodges as our ferry going to Orkney was cancelled due to weather and we had a reservations at the Inn on the return trip. (Check out my review there). The Inn is the nicer place to stay but the room in the Lodges was fine - no double beds available and not enough blankets for the two. Excellent response from the staff to get our heat turned on (our operator error). It would be great for a longer stay as the room had a little kitchen area and a good value. Good bar/restaurant (in the Inn) and perfect location to the ferry.

United KingdomOur stay in the lodges was very much spoiled by very rowdy members of a rugby team, who were totally out of control and seemed responsible for the fire alarm going off twice (first time late evening second time very early morning - totally ruined a night's sleep). The lack of any hotel person being visible on either fire alarm event was very worrying, as was the non-appearance of any fire appliance (it could have been a real fire as opposed to a false alarm). The fact that the Duty Manager was unaware of these events next morning was also of concern.
We had issues with our lodge (see below), but the Duty Manager responded to our problems and we were very satisfied with the alternative offered. Meals (dinners both evenings and breakfasts) were very good.

United KingdomClutching at straws as the Weigh Inn was fit for purpose. Requiring a coffee boost at the start of the day, I needed to stop after leaving the Weigh Inn at the Halladay Cafe in Melvich for Inverness Coffee Roasting's Highland Blend.
Weigh Inn was excellent value, particularly when compared to others amongst the 50+ booked for the trip. We were 2 road cyclists and were able to keep the bikes in our rooms, arrive and leave when we needed to.
