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...).

United States of AmericaWished the public sitting areas could have been open for use but understand why they couldn't be - namely due to Covid restrictions.
Breakfasts changed every morning and were very good. Our hosts were both very personable and helpful when asked for suggestions regarding things to do and places to eat for other meals.

United States of AmericaOK. If I must. The toilet paper holder in the Perkins Cove room could have been better placed.
Our hosts,Bill and Michael, treated us like honored guests from arrival to departure. They were warm, helpful, full of information about the neighborhood and very funny. The inn is beautifully decorated, spotless, perfectly comfortable and the breakfast was beyond delicious. The shower was great, too.

United States of Americathe only negative is that the property is in a highly trafficked location and sitting outside was noisy. However, the room was insulated and very quiet.
The property was well maintained and the room was clean and comfortable. Hosts were congenital and helpful; breakfast was amazing. Beautiful gardens! COVID restrictions were in place.

Michael and Bill are exceptional hosts! The restored house is IMMACULATE and the breakfast is out of this world. My wife and I have only one regret and that is our travels allowed only one night's stay! Despite inevitable covid restrictions, the stay was wonderfully open and friendly. It was clear that the other guests enjoyed their stays as much as we did! We WILL return.

United States of AmericaIt has become — in our modern world — a rare thing to be welcomed not as a customer or even as a guest, but as a friend. This was our experience at the Elmere. Michael and Bill welcomed us into their charming bed and breakfast with so much warmth and grace, it felt like we’d known them for years. The accommodations were elegant and clean. The food was made-to-order fine dining (with gluten free options). The conversation was genuine and funny. More, these guys are advocates for the Wells community and cheerleaders for neighboring businesses. Whether you’re looking for a night out, a cozy beverage, or a quick bite, these guys know where to send you. We’ll be back — we hope — again and again.

Mike and Bill, the owners, made our stay very special from the moment we arrived until we were walking out the door to leave. Their breakfast was wonderful and the dining area was delightful. It is obvious that Mike and Bill are committed to providing a safe, enjoyable, high quality experience. We will return and will recommend The Elmere House B&B and to anyone traveling to southern Maine.

Breakfast every morning was delicious! The location of the Elmere House was easily accessible, quaint and exquisite. I truly felt like I was at home. This is one place I plan on returning to when I'm travelling in the area.
