Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 AmericaInnkeepers were great - helpful, pleasant, both excellent chefs. The breakfasts were amazing! Loved finding the homemade cookies when we returned in the evening. Our hosts had done amazing research and loved learning about the history of the home and some of Asheville.

It is not readily apparent, but the property is very centrally located. If you continue down the street you are in the art district in a matter of 2 blocks or so

This was an amazing little B&B on our 25th Anniversary trip. We did a B&B hop and this one definitely did not disappoint. The house had an incredible mix of historical charm with modern thrown in. Jim greeted us at the door, showed us around and gave us some of the very interesting history of the property. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would most definitely recommend others to visit.

United States of AmericaMaybe offering an earlier 8a breakfast time option, but not much else... Expect to leave 45 minutes prior to your timed Biltmore House Tour reservation in order to have sufficient time to park and walk or take a tram to the front of the Biltmore Estate. We had reservations for a 10a tour and this worked out well for us.
Located in a peaceful and quiet woodsy area of Asheville, dotted with nice Arts and Crafts style homes, my wife and I found Oakland Cottage Bed & Breakfast to be very conveniently and centrally located to the River Arts District, Biltmore Estate and downtown. The daily breakfasts were wonderfully balanced and well-prepared. Jim, Erica and Brett were great hosts and we could tell that they all shared a common love and passion for both preserving historic homes and gourmet cooking.

United States of AmericaThis is a personal preference and does not impact the quality of our stay because we are already talking about returning! The coffee wasn’t our favorite- both in the room and at breakfast, I am a bit of a coffee snob so I don’t believe others would even notice! A local option for different taste preferences in the room would be great.
Amazing breakfast, excellent innkeepers, friendly other guests, plenty of parking, dog friendly, comfy large room (we stayed in Magnolia Sweet). Chickens on site for fresh eggs, close to everything, very comfortable! Will be back!
