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

Sonata Inn had a very welcoming atmosphere. Though the staff had just recently taken over the Inn, they did not fall short of being attentive to their guests. They worked hard to make sure our stay was more than comfortable. Breakfast was exceptional for both days, all deliciously made food, and the staff made sure that there would be enough food for all of their guests. This was overall a very homey stay and it did not fall short in impressing us.

Amazing location of property and people were so nice and helpful. They gave great recommendations including the where to watch the sunset and they were very attentive to making sure you were comfortable. They had everything you needed in the room and it was such a nice touch to have tea and coffee available to you in the kitchen whenever you wanted with being able to purchase soda for a very cheap price. Thank you so much for everything and cannot wait to visit again.

As it is a charming old heritage house, you might hear voices from the common spaces in your room. Nothing unexpected though. Pack some earplugs, just in case.
I had a great stay here. The owners put a lot of effort into little details to make you enjoy your stay. Breakfast includes homemade pastries (and surprisingly good coffee). Throughout the house you find books and boardgames, a tea kitchen, and common spaces to relax. The location is unbeatable.

The rooms are close to each other and walls are thin we were lucky to be there in low season because if the place is full it might be a little noisy from one room to another. Our room was also right over the reception area so when people arrive and check in you can hear them really clearly. But at the same time its an old house and its understandable not the owners fault really.
The room is super cute and comfortable all amenities are new and function well, the bed are cumfy and cozy. The staff was very nice and it was a fast check in process. Parking available on site and close by everything. Quiet neighborhood. The breakfast exceeded our expectations of continental wide variety of food all tasty and fresh. I would definetly go back.
