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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

South AfricaIt would have been nice to have had a shelf or cupboard in the bathroom for toiletry bags, especially when there are 3 people sharing one room and bathroom. The bin in the shared kitchen is way too small for all the rubbish.
Beautiful guest house. Comfortable room. Shared kitchenette for guest use which was appreciated. Kind and friendly host Neil.

Our stay at Herbert House was absolutely perfect. The place was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The location was excellent, and the hospitality was outstanding. A special mention to Neil — truly the most amazing person I’ve met in a long time. He made our stay even more memorable!

SpainWe stopped at Herbert House for a single night of a round trip. Coming by car, the location along the main road (N71) was very convenient, with a short drive or a 15–20 minute walk to get to the town centre. Parking on site was easy. Our room was overlooking the front side parking and facing towards the road but the house was set back enough that we did not notice any noise during the night while sleeping with an open window. Since we had leftovers from previous self-catering stays we skipped the offer for breakfast but found it very nice to have a shared, well equipped kitchenette to prepare our own. If we had staid longer, we would have made use of the charming place to sit reading a the window that our room offered or the garden area. The style of this guest house and its rooms may be a matter of taste – for my liking it is somewhere between very charming and a bit over the top. But it is all very clearly shown on the photos. There is no question for the owner and anybody else we dealt with – friendly and hospitable, making us feel very welcome.

IrelandWe only had one set of keys between three of us, it would have given us a bit more freedom if we each had keys.
Walking distance to the town centre, spacious room and easy parking. We really liked that we had access to a kitchen with a kettle, microwave, toaster, fridge, tea, coffee, biscuits, plates, cuttlery, an iron and ironing board. We would certainly stay there again.
