Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

AustraliaOnly thing we would have liked was a hand rail to get in and out of the shower/bath.
Beautiful accommodation that had everything we needed. Hosts Wendy & Tom were so friendly and helpful. As we had a car it was so easy to get around the area and beyond as the main highways were close by.

AustraliaBedroom on ground floor was smaller and made it awkward to manoeuvre around. Otherwise an excellent spot
Lovely unit with everything we required. Very comfortable and living area well set out enabling us to cook and relax after our numerous trips throughout the days. We were provided with bread and milk along with other condiments which were very well received Hosts were available and couldn't have been more helpful. Having a car was very helpful and a really great stay. Availability of Netflix was an added bonus and small table in courtyard got plenty of use

United KingdomLittle Elm is a home from home with a very cosy feel. The owners have thought about detail! They provide all you need to enjoy your stay - comfy beds and a place to relax. The kitchen was well equipped allowing us to prepare some meals which we brought down. Loved the welcome book - it was full of ideas for things to do. If the weather had been better we would have made use of the lovely court yard! Would definately consider staying here again if we were to visit Bath. Due to the weather we didnt walk into Bath but got an uber which ranged from £7-£8. Thank you! X

United KingdomThere was anything I didn't like. If I was being picky, may be a shower mat for the bath in case of any slip.
It was easy to find, immaculate, well stocked and lovely to have milk, fresh bread and oj left for us. The information booklet was very informative. Easy to park, great to have Netflix, coffee, tea. 2 bedrooms. The shower was lovely and the apartment was very warm

AustraliaPillows need replacing on beds as they were super thin and a second tea towel would be good as one not enough for 4 people for 3 days. The bed in the upstairs bedroom was only a few inches off the ground and this should be noted in the description. Very very difficult to get out of bed from the floor.
Quiet, great location , facilities, cleanliness and treats/pantry items.

New ZealandWithout a car it is a bit of a walk from town with luggage but this was known to us when booking as was well described. Uber/taxi was good value for our group.
Very clean, modern and well equipped. Great communication from the owner :-) Some welcoming touches with bread, jams, drinks and snacks etc. Definitely would recommend this accommodation.

There is a bus stop to the city centre about 1 km's walk away. I would definitely stay here again if I were visiting Bath.

United KingdomFabulous in every way! This was a supremely comfortable and welcoming place to stay. Tom and Wendy were terrific hosts to my husband and I while not being at all intrusive, and the sense of privacy and space was a delight. The outdoor area is so nice, with fairy lights for the evenings, and the outdoor table and chairs are sheltered enough to enjoy sitting outside in almost any weather. The facilities inside were all immaculate too, with lots of thoughtful touches like big fluffy towels, and the beds were fab. The location is lovely, with views of hills in the distance while being in spitting distance of the city centre - and great parking directly outside. All in all a perfect place to stay!

GermanyIt was a little out of town to be without a car and Uber wasn't very good at rush hour. But it was possible to walk 10 minutes to a bus stop and get into Bath in 10-15 minutes. We knew about the location when we booked and would definitely not have had such a wonderful place in the centre, so this is rather for info, not complaining!
Wendy was very thoughtful and provided us with fresh bread, milk and orange juice. The flat was lovingly and stylishly decorated and had everything we needed. Communication was easy and very friendly. The weather was great, so we could have breakfast in the courtyard. Really delightful!

Beautiful place to stay. Host is very helpful as they checked us in even if we reached late in the evening. The property is new and very comfortable. I will say a home away from home. The kitchen facilities are just amazing. Last but not the least is the welcome snack basket. It was so helpful for our next day breakfast. Road side parking is also very convenient. I will definitely recommend.
