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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomMy only smalll concern is the dated state of facilities. Universities are obviously under-going serious financial difficulties, so only concern is the longer term detail for continued investment and refurbishment in student accommodation and related facilities. Bed and mattress are old. "Kerb appeal" outside areas could do with a good tidy up and clean. However overall that is "only constructive" and the value does over-ride all comments.
Booking engine/ web site is excellent (booking.com). Very efficient check-in procedures. Compared to St Andrews hotel prices, provides excellent value for money. Definately recommend.

United KingdomNothing really.
As a golfer, the accommodation is ideally located close to the Old Course and all the other links. A short walk will take you into the heart of St Andrews. Rooms are a good size and en suite. Breakfast is of a buffet style and there is lots of choice. Most importantly the accommodation is, in a top quality area of the world, affordable.

United KingdomWe would prefer a firmer mattress, but that’s personal choice. Lights above the bed were a bit temperamental.
Great good value option when visiting St Andrews. Super clean and well supplied with toiletries, tea, coffee & soft towels. Decent bathroom. Has everything you need for a short stay. The reception and bar area is very good. Excellent breakfast included- so much choice, including veggie, vegan & gluten free. All help yourself.

United KingdomEverything was good, mattress could be a little better but thats nitpicking.
Primarily, great value for money in a town that can be pricey. The location is excellent being just a 10 minute walk to the town centre and 5 to the golf course; ideal for going out for a walk at nights. The building is very clean, staff are friendly and there is an abundance of parking included in the price. Unsurprisingly, the room is basic considering its student accomodation but perfectly comfortable, especially for the price. If you're using it as a base to explore then it's ideal - this is affordable accomodation for tourists and business alike. The best point and biggest surprise was the breakfast. Great options, fresh food, great quality - probably the best breakfast we've had at any hotel, way beyond what is reasonable to expect at this price point.

SpainThe stay was overall okay, but there were a couple of major issues. The bathroom sink was clogged, and most importantly, the bed seemed to be full of dust mites — we ended up covered in bites. The beds themselves were also quite small and not very comfortable. On the positive side, the breakfast was definitely the highlight: varied, tasty, and well-prepared. With better maintenance, cleaner and more comfortable beds, this could be a much better experience.
