Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomThe fact that they were very strict on the time that you could book in, I understand that you have to give a set time, but I also believe you should be flexible, I arrived at the property around 11 o’clock saying that I know I’m early but hoping they could possibly let me in earlier to be honest not every bedroom is gonna be ready at 2 o’clock there will be some that are ready before the person is already there as a goodwill gesture, why not let them take a room?
Love the Room the way it was done out was lovely

United KingdomOur room was lovely and warm, but we found it too hot in the night. We could open the window, but then had to cope with occasional (not continuous) traffic noise. It didn't stop us from getting at least some sleep. One other point - our room (11) had a sloping ceiling on one side. Whilst my partner is very tall, I could cope, but this room would not suit two very tall people. The manager promised to remedy the small issue we had with one of the bedside lights.
This inn is located close to the main A38 between Exeter and Plymouth, and is very easy to find at the junction for Buckfatleigh. We arrived for lunch, and enjoyed a good meal before checking in and being shown to our room. We opted for a twin room, which had 2 x 3foot wide beds, which were extremely comfortable. The en-suite bathroom was beautifully appointed, with modern shower and the option of a bath in a full-size tub, and plenty of head room for my tall (6'7"/2.01m) partner. We loved the soft, wrap-around bath sheets and the heated towel rail - just what you need in winter! Breakfast the next morning was cooked to order, and was excellent. All the staff here are friendly and helpful, and the whole experience was one we'd be happy to repeat.
