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.).

Excellent for children and dogs. Rob & Nikki couldn't be more helpful, nothing was too much of a problem. Our dogs were able to stay in the room with us and we're even given their own sausage for breakfast.

These people go above and beyond to make their clients happy, They took into consideration our personal needs and went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable in all aspects. We cannot recommend them enough and if we come back into the area we will definitely look into staying here again

United KingdomI was staying as a single resident so may not have had the biggest room. I spent most the evenings in my room where I think a small armchair would have been useful.
Robert and Nicki serve a comprehensive breakfast menu consisting of cereals fruit juice, tea or coffee and a hearty full english with a choice of toast. I couldn't fault it. My room was spotlessly clean with a generous supply of tea, coffee and chocolate. The ensuite bathroom, unlike some B&B's had a large modern shower that allows plenty of movement. The double bed was comfortable and I slept like a log.

Robert and Nikki are amazing hosts. They made our stay so easy and enjoyable from booking to leaving. Great communication, clear directions and a lovely warm welcome (even though we were very late). Nothing was too much trouble. Peaceful location and fantastic value for money. The ground level room was great for us, ( 3 adults and dog) especially as the large sofa bed was in a different room to the double so gave good privacy. Very clean and comfortable ensuite room with a wonderfully stocked tea tray, TV and direct access to the garden area. Everything you would need. Not forgetting the delicious breakfast cooked to order, perfect eggs and lashing of tea and toast and even a sausage for the dog. Wish we were staying longer and not just passing through. Hoping to return when we have more time. Thank you

The accommodation was extremely comfortable and really well presented. The food provided was excellent and Robert was more than happy to accommodate dietary requirements. Robert and Nicki (owners) were really friendly and made me feel very welcome and were very attentive. There is a garage which Robert was happy to store my bicycle in.

United KingdomI'd booked a few rooms at Stoke House for my bridesmaids as I was getting married in Stoke Rivers over the weekend, and their stay and my own experience was absolutely faultless. The bridesmaids told me how comfortable the rooms were, they looked spotless, and I was lucky enough to experience firsthand the generosity of Nicki and Robert. They were kind enough to let me join my bridesmaids for breakfast on the morning of the wedding, and I couldn't believe how thoughtful they were. Upon my arrival I was greeted by a 'Congratulations' banner and bridal confetti all over the breakfast table to start our celebrations properly! I had a little cry, and all of us were so unbelievably touched by this thoughtful gesture. The breakfast itself was fab, but Nicki and Robert's services was second-to-none. You can tell just how passionate they are about providing a joyful, comfortable, and personalised stay for their guests, and I can truly say I've never experienced service like it. It started my wedding day in the best way possible, and I can't thank them enough for being the most wonderful hosts. If my Grandma didn't live just round the corner I'd absolutely stay myself! But in the meantime I will wholeheartedly recommend Stoke House to any of my friends and family that fancy a Devon getaway! Thank you again Nicki and Robert, hope to see you around the village again soon :)

I booked a room for some of the bridesmaids attending my daughter's wedding in the village. The hosts were lovely, and invited my daughter and myself to breakfast in the morning, She took them up on their very kind offer, and was thrilled to see they had put bunting up for her in the dining room - a lovely touch. The bridesmaids all said what a great breakfast they had.
