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 KingdomCommunication wasn't clear, that the toilets for .y booked room was outside the room and not inside attached. 1 single bathroom and toilet was used by more than 15 people in the morning time making it unusable, as the checkout time was 10 am.
Location was good. Good cleanliness. Good beds.

United KingdomVery cold at night and no additional blankets in the room. No hairdryer. Would be good to have tea/coffee facilities in the room itself. Although there are signs to ask otherwise after 11pm, other visitors very noisy late at night. Also could hear people walking around in rooms upstairs. Just needs finishing touches in rooms and bathroom to make it more welcoming..
Very close to town which we needed for the event we were attending and short walk from beach. Friendly greeting on arrival. Clean bedding.

United KingdomParking for 3-4 cars, so had to park elsewhere for one day, but there is parking in the surrounding streets, so wasn't that much of an issue. No Marmite for my toast in the morning, I am not sure this is an actual problem, but if there was Marmite....you know, happy bunny :)
The location of this hotel is perfect; it is a 10-minute walk to the beach and just 5 minutes from the high street. The room was basic but perfect for what we needed, a private bathroom and shower.

United KingdomNoise in the hotel travelled a lot. Room very very warm, could have done with a fan. Door made a knocking noise all night. All contributed to a poor nights sleep. Window was a bit broken, plug socket a bit broken. Was not a comfortable overnight stay. Parking very limited (3/4 spaces). Also had my mother stayed with me as planned, it would have been too many stairs.
Room was large. Sink in the room was handy. Plenty of storage. Location was good if you want Boscombe town and short walk for Boscombe beach.

FranceNo real parking space but not so hard to find a place to park. If you are tall/big the showers might feel tiny. But overall nothing major to point out.
Being able to check in quite late was a plus. Outdoor space for breakfast was great. Coffee, tea, orange juice and toast are included. Location is always pretty great.

United Kingdomas above
we had a small double room, with 1 draw unit and no wardrobe for hanging clothes, no tea making facilities in the room but there is a communial tearoom downstairs , the bathroom was tiny, i wouldnt have been comfortable if i had booked it for a weeks holiday, also the hotel doesnt do any catering / breakfast which was mentioned on booking .com the owner was friendly and theres a nice sitting area in the garden. i,d say it,s ok for a work stopover but not as a holiday base.
