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 AmericaSuch a cute B&B! Our room was pristine – the bed was comfortable and the shower was spacious. We had an amazing view of the beach, wharf, and boardwalk. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fresh and tasty, everything was vegetarian friendly. They offer loaner bikes and we used them to explore the city. Super accessible to downtown.

United KingdomNo a/c, we stayed in April so not an issue but in summer you would need the windows open and it is quite close to a busy road.

United States of AmericaWe stayed in room 4 on the second floor which faces the ocean. However the 2nd floor has a wrap around porch, other guests are sitting and enjoying the view right outside your window.
The staff of the West Cliff Inn are outstanding. They texted the day of our arrival, we mentioned our flight was early, they did remind of the standard check in time but then texted again that our room was ready early! After check in they texted to make sure everything was great, and even offered local dining suggestions. The wine and cheese happy hour they put together was appreciated after a long day travelling. Great personal touch! The inn itself is a charming historic property. Location is fabulous, a quick walk to boardwalk and wharf. There is a small fireplace in the room that adds to the ambiance.

United States of AmericaA table and chairs were needed. Better climate control was also needed.
A delicious breakfast was delivered to our room to adhere to current covid protocols. The room included a nice shared balcony, It was so warm that we had to leave our windows open in the winter, and we couldn't use the fireplace The bathroom was nice, but the bedroom space was very limited. For instance, we had no place to sit and eat our breakfast other than in the bed. There was no tray to do this.
