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...).

MalaysiaWalls were a little thin so could hear the neighbouring room when they had the TV on, but wasn't a huge issue.
The Pine Guest House was a fabulous find - the owner was so kind when I needed help after losing my key, and rooms were cleaned everyday, refreshments were topped up and all in all it was a comfortable room. I came for a university course so spent limited time in the hotel, but the bed was comfortable and noise levels weren't too bad. The hotel was perfectly located beside the beach where I needed to be, with a short walk to shops and amenities. Would recommend for work/short beach stays!

United States of AmericaAs an American, a “private bathroom” would include the toilet. I was shocked that, while I had a sink and a shower en-suite, I had to go outside my room and down the hall to use a shared toilet in a tiny w/c. The tv remote was very dirty. Luckily, I had antibacterial wipes with me and used 3 of them on the remote. The tea maker could’ve used a good wipe down on the outside.
Staff was nice, the bed was very comfortable and the location was good.

AustraliaThis is an old style seaside B&B (without the breakfast) - unpretentious and maybe from another era and is fine for a night or two. There are no facilities in the room beyond a kettle, though, so longer stayers may find themselves wanting a fridge at least. The central heating is very patchy - it only comes on for an hour or so in the morning and then another couple of hours later in the day. If you're in the room in the middle of the day it gets very cold. For what it is, though, it is good value budget accommodation in a convenient location. If you've seen Get Carter (the original) you'll get an idea.
The location is excellent - just a minute walk from the sea and a few mins walk to the centre of Whitley Bay and the Metro. Also Jackie, the lady who runs it was exceptionally nice and helpful and keeps the place spotless.
