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 KingdomNothing. All was great. Great place for a short stay.
Location central to cafes, bars and shops. Short walk down to the harbour. Staff brilliant. Due to my partners difficulties with stairs we were given a ground floor room, at no extra cost. Locals were very helpful with directions etc. The bus journey from Aberdeen was like a comedy show, great entertainment from the bus driver.

United KingdomWe never saw any staff at all in the 3 day stay. There was a used towel left behind in our room when we arrived. Had to phone manager for another bath towel as we only had one for the two of us. No view from the room, as only window in room is on sloped wall and points to the sky. The street where the property is, is very run down with dilapidated buildings and broken windows nearby.
Size and cleanliness of room was fine. Located close to bus station, bars, restaurant's and shops.

United KingdomWhen I left a towel to be replaced on floor it appears the same towel was placed on rack over radiator instead of a fresh towel. Hand towel i don't think was replaced when left on floor for a change. Not enough toilet roll provided I bought some extra myself.
Clean and nicely decorated even the funky barhroom! Decent shower. Shower gel provided . Fridge was excellent. Door of room closed securely and seemed very safe.

United KingdomExcellent location and plenty street parking. We were on the top floor so mobility is required. Room was spacious but a little restricted by a sloping roof section. Slope slightly affected use of the sink. Bed was a little soft (for our taste) and being placed in the corner of the room restricted getting in and out. Very good value however.

United KingdomApartment was cold, owner got the plumbing checked but it didn't make much difference I'm afraid. An extra blanket would help. Location is handy with town centre but the street itself feels a bit run down and seedy, although I don't think there's much danger really.
Very clean, spacious room.

SloveniaThrea are funny noises in ( too ) small bathroom. Although new, not particullary well done. Not that it’s unclean, but you will have no problems finding hair around, if you happen to collect them.
Big, maybe little cold room, with two comfortable double beds. Beds and sheets are clean. The whole house and the room is newly refurbished. There is refridgerator.

United KingdomOnly a minor thing, shower tray drained very slowly. Just in the interest of avoiding any damage to property might be worth owner taking a look (room 8)
Great location, everything was within short walking distance. Property is a hidden gem, we live relatively local but it was as cheap to stay here as it would've been to get a cab home. I honestly don't think you could do better for the price. Clean and well presented. Easy check in via intercom, might be worth adding that procedure to the advert as it wasn't clear until arriving. It's an easy process though.
