How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Parking lot was inaccessible as a result of city road work. this wasn't the B & B's fault, and the B & B went to some good efforts to ensure we had parking available across the street at a neighbour's home. we appreciated this very much.
good breakfast. I liked the rice dish and the fruit dish. It was nice to be seated around a big table with other patrons instead of each patron being alone at their own table. We were able to have a lively and fun conversation with the other guests.

I have no complaints. The accommodations weren’t elegant, but more than met our expectations.
Breakfast was tasty and we enjoyed the company of the other guests. The weather was cold and rainy and so we stayed around the table chatting well past the hour mark. The hosts also offered us to keep our parking space long past check-out time.

Property is situated on a busy road. It was a little difficult to identify and hard to slow down when the road is so busy. It is an older home a little outdated. Having said that, it was comfortable, and the hosts were pleasant.
The Festival theatre was within walking distance. The people were accommodating and courteous. Parking available on site. 2nd floor had coffee available for early risers.

The breakfast wasn't quite as described in the in-room brochure. However, given inflation and supply chain problems that's understandable. Breakfast was nonetheless quite nice.

The breakfast was mediocre at best. We arrived at the table with some cut-up fruit covered in plastic. The coffee was fresh and the best part of breakfast. We were served what can best be described as a "diner special" breakfast of scrambled eggs, toast, bacon and two breakfast sausages. Very mundane and run down for a bed and breakfast in my opinion. The room was wide enough for a queen bed and 2 nightstands, and the bathroom was tiny beyond belief.
The location was great. Walking distance to the Stratford Festival and local restaurants.
