Each 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):
- 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...).

Decor and bathroom suite slightly outdated and TV was not operational but it did not spoil the overall experience. It is apparent that refurbishment is ongoing after 1.5 years of ownership.
Loved the warm welcome and attentive hospitality. Incredible cuisine with varied selection and Mexican twist. Hosts went the extra mile to make my stay comfortable and help in any way they could. Honest, caring and hard working family who seem passionate about every aspect of their business.

We had a fantastic stay. The rooms where comfortable, clean and had great facilities. The location is remote however perfect for the wedding we attended just 5 minutes away and the owners even called to booked a local taxi on our behalf. If you have a car, both Dundee and St Andrews are a short drive away, very easy to get to. Breakfast was fantastic - the owners were very attentive and helpful. Made us feel very welcome. Exceeded our expectations!

The hotel is charming, the beds comfy and rooms lovely. But best part was the staff. Krystal was super welcoming and accommodating when my bookings.com reservation was canceled bc of an expired credit card. I was so grateful and then when we met in person she was delightful as is her husband (I think his name is Manuel) who is also the chef. Dinner was delicious and breakfast very good. This is a top notch place where you feel valued and Krystal and Manuel go out of their way to make sure all your needs are met. Very personable, warm and welcoming, I hope to return and/or send others their way!

Nothing wrong at all. Perfect
An OMG moment to stay at the beautiful olden style B&B. The room was lovely and clean, cosy but not too small. Great bed and it was lovely to have a soak in the bath after a day of sightseeing. Krystal and Manuel were so accommodating and friendly. They even put our suitcases in our room for us. Nothing was a problem. A wonderful breakfast was also supplied every morning. A perfect place to stay close to St Andrew’s and Dundee . The bus stop was just outside the Inn. I highly recommend to stay there and can’t wait to one day go back.

The Staff and Chef were very friendly and accommodating to our needs. They went out of there way to prepare a meal for a couple in our group who wee delayed for check in. The Chef is excellent and our dinner selections were the best. It was a cozy Inn (Circa Late 1700’s) that was just what we we’re interested in staying. We were a group of six who thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

The husband and wife are running this B&B. They are all very kind and nice persons. The wife is very cheerful. Because I got two large suitcases, they helped to take it up stairs.And when I check out the husband heard I talk to the wife and I was asking for help, while he is having breakfast, he come upstairs to help me, and he just don’t want the wife to do any heavy lifting. He is a really good husband. The food is nice. The hotel room is clean. The Local is perfect. Thank you for taking care of me.
