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.).

That I only booked for one night.
Very nice B&B with a extremely nice host, great optional dinner for a very fair price (don‘t go anywhere, try the fried noodles), and a good breakfast. I’m really looking forward to coming back anytime soon.

We walked uphill to the property, it is approximately 1 km from the train centre, so best get a cab if your fitness level is low or you have a lot of bags.
The hostess was amazing, the beds were comfortable, the food at the restaurant attached to the b&b was so yummy and all the other extras were very lovely.

It was a very good stay at Orient B&B at Holyhead. My train arrived late in the evening and I in advance received information on how I could check-in by myself, which worked very well. Breakfast was very good. T.J. is a very friendly host, and I really enjoyed my stay.

Orient B&B is a 10 minutes walk away from the Holyhead train station and ferry terminal. It's a good starting point to explore the coast and the mountain of Holy Island. The room was really large for a B&B, comfortable, clean, and equipped with quite a large desk, so it is even a good place to do some work if you need to! Plus, the lounge area is very cosy and comfortable, and you can get tea, coffee, small snacks and drinks on a honesty basis at any time. Orient B&B is one of the most agreeable accomodations I ever had on the British Isles.

It's in a decent spot if you're getting the train but it was hard to get a taxi to the station with all my bags. Lots of hills in the area so just be prepared for a little bit of a walk up to the hotel.
Staff member was very friendly. Nice lounge area and let me sit in the dining area even though food wasn't being served so I could order something in. Room was spacious and, while the single bed wasn't amazing, it was great for a short trip to holyhead.

Boiler broke down unfortunately during my stay so no hot water for a shower in the morning, but just one of those things that can happen.
Lovely warm welcome by the owner/manager, impressive facilities available in the communal lounge area, such as coffee, tea, etc, wine to purchase. Tv. The dining room was also very nice both to use for takeaways and for the light breakfast provided in the morning. Cooked breakfast available for an extra cost, but I was leaving in a rush so didn't try it. I'd book again, as only stayed one night on this occasion. My single bed was very comfortable with crisp cotton sheets. Ear plugs provided in my room (a nice touch!) as my room was on the ground floor off the hall and could have been noisy had the b&b been full.

The cheap plastic flowers I’m not a fan of although others may find them quirky. There was a smell of damp in the hallway. But I would stay again.
The landlady is very friendly and makes you feel at home. Room was clean. A 15 minute walk to train station or ferry terminal.
