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 States of AmericaI needed to know to leave a window cracked open a little bit so that the fireplace would go really good. I figured it out on my own but a quick mention of it would have been good.
Room very comfortable and well appointed. Linens and towels all clean and tidy. nice happy hour with wine and cheese. Tv was good and shower was nice. Little eating area out front is a nice touch

United States of AmericaI chose Carmel Garden Inn because it was so highly rated by others, its price point was fantastic, and it was walking distance to the beach. In addition to the very friendly staff, in particular Jen, I was pleasantly surprised by the breakfast they offered. Most places have run of the mill items but they made 2 types of frittata fresh daily along with a homemade bread, and their coffee was from a local company and was excellent. They also had a daily wine and cheese hour offering a nice red and white wine! I plan to go back and stay here again.

Cute, older inn with lots of charm. Great location. The inside of our unit is a bit dated but clean. It had a nice little private patio and a fireplace. The inn provides breakfast, which was substantial and tasty. The staff was very friendly

Such a cute and cozy property! In a great location walkable to the ocean and downtown Carmel. The staff is great! Jen was amazing each day giving us tips on things to do and asking us about our trip. She had the best dinner recommendations! Do anything she recommends! Our room had a fireplace which we could light by ourselves. It was so cozy.

United States of AmericaOur room had a slightly odd odor. The other room for our party was fine.
The Inn is an older quaint B&B that offers decent value for the money. If you arrive between 3-5 pm, a complimentary glass of wine awaits you. The room was on the small side; the bed and pillow were quite comfortable. The rooms we stayed in (a party of four) both opened out on to the sidewalk. Ample off street parking is available. The breakfast was very nice--a step above the typical hotel breakfast.

United States of AmericaWe have come here when our child was 3 months, 7 months, 1 year and now 1.5 years old-we had to leave after one night (we booked two nights) because our daughter would not sleep in the sleep pod we brought and it would have been nice if there was a crib available. We didn’t have enough room in our car to bring a crib-that’s my only suggestion maybe have a crib to offer guests
This is our third or fourth time here and we love the breakfast! It is so yummy
