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 StatesThe room was well appointed and very clean but the mattress was a bit lumpy.
We absolutely loved the advice about the area, and help we received from our host. The breakfast was delicious and at the time we chose. We had snacks to take on our bike ride.

United StatesAbsolutely nothing, will stay there again!
Breakfast was made at a time of your convenience and the options were diverse enough for anyone to pick from. Had fresh fruit both days we were there. Nancy and Ben were so inviting and made sure we were comfortable during the stay. The location is close enough to town that you can walk instead of paying for parking

United StatesNone to complain about
A comfortable and cozy B&B located in walking distance of Jim Thorpe downtown. Dedicated parking is available for guests. A Victorian styled home with cozy warm heating. The best part is the amazing host who cares for your comfort beyond your expectations. Unexpected bonuses: while breakfast was included, we got an excellent customized and delicious breakfast each morning and a library of great books for times we spend indoors. Matt also had board games for indoor entertainment for our 10 year old. I would recommend the Hillcrest B&B for your Jim Thorpe vacation in a blink of my eye.

United StatesWe had a spectacular time staying at the Hillcrest Bed and Breakfast. Tom and Nancy went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The atmosphere was cozy and breakfast was so delicious! The location was walking distance from downtown which was a huge plus. When visiting again in the future, we would most definitely stay there and recommend them to anyone who wants an extra special experience while in town. We absolutely loved it and appreciate the hospitality provided.

Located quite close to downtown Jim Thorpe, this bed and breakfast was extremely welcoming. Tom and Nancy were excellent hosts and gave several recommendations for food, events, and sites to see in the area. The room we rented was a single room with a private bathroom, which we found to be comfortable and spacious. Every morning, Tom and Nancy would provide fresh fruit, breakfast of your choice, and great coffee, which was one of the highlights of our stay there. We're looking forward to staying here in the future, as there are several, local hiking and biking trails, and many other things to do and see.
