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.).

What a lovely place to stay! We received a very friendly welcome, with lots of advice for our stay - we know the area pretty well, but for any first time visitors, lots of useful info. The room was absolutely delightful, really cosy with everything you could possibly need & an exceptional tea selection! Beautiful bathroom with a lovely selection of toiletries & towels. Really delicious breakfast, with lots of choices. Easy to park on the street outside too.

United KingdomNothing was a problem
The owners are very welcoming, the room and house, for that matter, had a warm friendly atmosphere. Breakfast was wonderful, trad English and plenty of fruit yogurts etc. Location to city centre was excellent and we were helped to find the taxi service. This Air B&B has extremely high standards, for travellers like my wife and I, there were no puzzled looks at each other, we both agreed, certainly in our top 5 stays and we stay out a lot.

United KingdomNothing could have been improved as the only downside was the location. Although a short taxi ride or drive into town, so this wasn't an issue.
We were welcomed at the door by the hosts who were very friendly. Our room was bigger than expected with a fantastic array of coffee and tea facilities in the room. The bed was comfy and a large tv with netflix and amazon prime. The breakfast was delicious and we were provided with a dining table full of continental breakfast items.

United KingdomSidney Grove guest house and hosts were excellent. There was nothing to dislike. The only thing I would say is, if you aren't good on your feet I could see the stairs to the attic room being an issue. It wasn't for us though.
The size, cleanliness, hospitality tray and style of the en suite room plus the breakfast choice and quality of presentation was excellent. Beautiful room, comfy bed and excellent selection of toiletries too.

United KingdomThis isn't a dislike - just a minor point - the signal for BBC iplayer was poor however this may have been the BBC's fault and not the property's. It did not detract from my enjoyment.
I had a wonderful stay! The hosts, Avril and Angus, were friendly and welcoming and the room spacious, clean and very well equipped. The breakfast was something else - so much to choose from both hot and cold - the full English kept me going all day! Thank you - I'll definitely be back.

United KingdomI couldn’t really fault the experience
We were cordially greeted by Angus, who was very knowledgable about the best places to visit and eat. We were asked what we would like for breakfast and at what time and there was a generous offering in the room of everything from a selection of teas, coffees and snacks. An ethically sourced selection of toiletries were on hand in the clean and modern en-suite accommodation. As a real bonus too the bed and soft furnishings were extremely comfortable and there was a fab choice of music and tv stations available. We were not rushed at any time as check out was a generous 11 am. So the experience was relaxing and the hosts delightful. Definitely recommended.

United KingdomUnfortunately the duvet was too thick and warm (even with all the windows open) so our sleep wasn't the best. The TV didn't seem to have a wifi signal (or aerial) so we couldn't pick up any stations.
47 Sidney Grove is a lovely house with wonderful floorboards throughout. Our room at the top of the house was enormous and had its own en-suite. The room was very tastefully decorated with quirky colours and designs everywhere. Lots of provisions were provided with a great range of beverages, snacks and fruit. Breakfast was also plentiful with lots of choice, Our cooked breakfast prepared by Angus set us up very well for the day ahead. The house is in a great location with the centre of Newcastle only a 15-20 minute walk away.

United KingdomIf I had to be picky I would say the pillows on the bed were too soft - I like a firmer pillow
Full English breakfast was delicious with plenty on the plate. Fresh fruit salad as well as cereal, yoghurt and toast on offer as well if fancied although after a real plateful of the full English there really wasn't room!! Various flavoured teas along with the tradtionals, coffee and hot chocolate biscuits and fruit in the room. Good range of environmentally friendly shampoos and shower gels in the surprisingly large en-suite. We were in the loft room, it was spacious and nicely decorated. Bed was very comfortable We were made most welcome by a lovely host. Situated in a quiet area of the town just off the main A186, so easily found. Plenty buses nearby into the town. Within walking distance - 20mins downhill -of the Arena.

United KingdomThere is nothing we didn't like, the only thing I could say would be for there to be a mirror in a place where you can get ready.. but that's not going to bother everyone!.
The room was gorgeous, homely, and spotless.. everything you could possibly need was there in the room for you.. if I went again I wouldn't need to pack half the stuff I did!.. The breakfast on the morning was fantastic and so much to choose from! Avril was very welcoming and we felt at ease as soon as we got there. The location is really good as well, not far from the city centre or arena.. I couldn't recommend this place enough 😊
