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 StatesA lot of Steep and narrow stairs up to the third floor and unable to lock the door to the apartment for security/privacy. No TV in bedroom. No safe to lock up valuables
Location was close to downtown close to the harbor. You can see the harbor from the bedroom., plenty of space, clean, very friendly hosts and they helped carry your luggage up to the third floor. The hosts also offered to drive us to the beach to save the cost of parking reservations.

United StatesThis house is in an old neighborhood. It has the typical "old house problems." These "problems" are very minute part of the charm of the house-things like pulling the door tight behind you. There isn't anything I would change about it because it is a typical, beautiful old coastal New England home!
Amazing location, very walkable to Main Street and the boulevard. Unit has A/C and is a clean and cute place! I would gladly stay there again. This is a lovely home in the heart of Gloucester.

United StatesThere was nothing I disliked. All of our families' needs we're met!
For our family, our experience at the Guest Suite in their historical home was much more than words could describe. So, I will first start with our "must haves" while away on vacation." Which are comfort, affordability, and the location we stay at. This suite hit all three to a T. The best way to describe this location is to think of "staycation" like when you need that home away from home feeling. The hosts are amazing. They immediately make you feel at home, and the suite itself is very spacious, and the kitchen was perfect size that comfortably cooks and feeds 4-5 people. Everything is within walking distance, i.e., train station, local grocery store, restaurants, and dunkin donuts. It was amazing coming back to that suite each evening after a day full of exploring what Massachusetts has to offer.

United StatesSuite is up two flights of narrow stairs. Would prefer separate entrance instead of entering thru hosts’ kitchen though they were always great about it. Shower pressure is a little weak and takes time for temperature to adjust.
Great location! Walking distance to Main Street, Beauport hotel & bayside walk. Charming historical home was updated and clean. Spacious suite with kitchen. Hosts were very gracious and accommodating - they helped get our luggage up and down stairs.

United StatesIt didn't bother us, but the rooms were only accessible by walking through the host's kitchen. This may be something that others find uncomfortable.
The location was great for walkability. We had many shops and restaurants within walking distance, as well as access to harbor activities. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. We were able to work and use our laptops using the free Wifi.

United Statesthe only thing that was unusual for me compared to other BnB i have stayed in, is that you needed to walk thru the hosts kitchen to get to stairs to your apartment. Even though we never ran into our hosts it made me bit uncomfortable even though they were so nice and welcoming.
Spacious! 2 bedrooms and full kitchen. very clean and nicely decorated. walk to everything. comfortable bed. almost perfect.

United StatesWe know that they are looking for a solution to this, but the stairs are rather steep, and access now is through the kitchen. That being said, it is not enough to take away from the great apartment that they have put together, offered at a very reasonable price in the center of town.
The location is just superb in terms of easily accessible restaurants and shops. Parking is easy. Apartment is large, modern, and very well equipped. Our hosts were charming, very friendly and well-informed, eager to make our stay the best possible experience for us.

United StatesThe steps are exceptionally steep and narrow. We knew this ahead of time so don’t fault the owners, but as others have mentioned, it would be difficult for those with mobility issues. Also, because the owner’s family lives downstairs, there is a certain amount of kid noise in the evenings.
Historic home on a quiet street very close to the harbor, restaurants, coffee shops and an amazing used bookstore. The 3rd floor apartment was clean and fresh, with views of the rooftops, church steeples and peeks of the harbor. The owner, Saltanat, greeted us warmly and offered to help carry our bags up the very steep steps. The entire apartment was freshly renovated and the bedding, sofa, bathroom and kitchen were all in great condition. We only stayed two nights, but would gladly return.
