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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Wifi was poor, our room got very little sunlight, the place is a bit shabby, and no staff are on site in the evening. It's also on a very busy road, as well as a creek. It's not quite the romantic b & b it appears to be on the website.
The staff are friendly, breakfast was good, the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. It's relatively affordable, by Sonoma valley standards.

We did not have independent control over heat in our room; we had to reset the thermostat for the whole downstairs to control our room. There was no desk table in the room. The refrigerator was loud; we had to turn it off. We had specifically requested no scents or scented products in the room and when we arrived it reeked of incense and perfume; we had to remove bundles of incense sticks. It took a lot of airing out (but fortunately the windows would open.
The bed was comfortable with good pillows. The WiFi was strong. This is a great location for exploring Sonoma. It was a pleasure to have a full breakfast with eggs and bacon.

We stayed in the Cottage which was isolated from the main house and was very dark with no natural light. It wasn’t a very cosy space when the weather was cold and wet. Staff were not familiar with local activities or places to visit.
The lounge and breakfast area were very pleasant, warm and comfortable. Staff were friendly. Good breakfast provided. Afternoon drinks and nibbles were also a nice touch. Location was reasonably close to town plaza if you like a good walk. Quiet location.

Breakfast is served from 830-930. I’m not an early bird but they where kind and offered us continental breakfast because we woke up late and after 930.
Comfortable bedding. Super clean room and quiet, peaceful ambiance.

I think that the Costco size toiletries ( Head and Shoulders??) were out of sync with how nice the property was. The products set out for use were cheap and I wish I had brought my own. At the very least pouring them into nice containers would have gone a long way to fit the ambiance of the room.
We enjoyed our stay and we were especially thrilled that the staff made a special and fun breakfast for our granddaughter. We enjoyed wine in the evenings and the backyard was spacious and comfortable.

It may be a problem if you want to be closer to Sonoma Plaza, as it is just over a mile walk. We thought it was easy walking.
What a very comfortable B&B with the BEST staff! Our room was in the main house & had another door in the room leading outside to a cosy patio area with seating & gas fires if needed. The bed was so comfy & felt like memory foam comfort that was perfect for us. The late afternoon wine & cheese reception was a bonus & the breakfast was plentiful & deliciously prepared by Aliesha. On arrival, Aliesha showed us amenities to make our stay comfortable. She was the best hostess & made us feel like nothing was too much. Thank you for all the attention you gave to make sure we were happy. We would stay again & definitely recommend if you want that homey caring feeling.
