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 KingdomIt was very dated and smelt musty my double bed was actually 2 single beds pushed together The desk drawers were nailed shut only had use of the small drawers, I was supposed to have a fan an iron and a hairdryer in our room there was none of these when asked about an iron the boy at the desk said there wasn’t any even though when he opened the drawer to look I could clearly see one I was going to a wedding so I had to go to the local Asda and buy one.
The view from my balcony was beautiful and there was easy access to the harbour and town centre.

United KingdomNot that I didn’t like it, the room was adequate for the night and I was happy with the value vs what I had so more negative points rather than not liking. Bed was a little uncomfortable and the mattress looked to bow in the middle! Decor is dated or needs redoing (my room had wallpaper ripped off in parts). Bathroom old, shower small and took a while for hot water to come through. Had 4 mini bottles of shampoo on the sink which was a nice touch but maybe shower gel as well as shampoo would be nice. The plug sockets of which yes there were plenty, were odd! The table with the kettle was by a plug but the kettle lead doesn’t reach, no worries I just moved it. The plug sockets by the bed are on top of some wooden beading so large plugs or large corded plugs won’t fit in them! One of the three rooms we booked had no chair in the room the other three did. One had a very dated hairdryer the other two didn’t.
The rooms were spacious, had facilities such as kettle and tea/coffee, TV. Provided towels and little bottles of shampoo. Small wardrobe space, but ample drawers in tables (dressing and bedside). Friendly staff member at reception. Parking available (limited) at £10 per night. Free WiFi. Not far from the town walking (but up and down a hill) or £6.50 in a taxi (approx).

United KingdomHowever, the building saw better times: it's old and has not been renovated for a while. The lamp shade was ripped, toilet door with a hole it it and no lock, no bulbs in reading lights over the beds. Very-very average.
It's OK - this perfectly describes the hotel. We had a good sleep in a room of decent size. It's was clean, with shower gel, hand wash, shampoo and towels provided. It was stuffy but there's a working fan to help with it. You may also use a kettle to make a cup of tea. Reception team was polite and helpful. Parking is £10 per night and was full when we arrived. WiFi is available, as well as hot and cold water.

I like the bed, very comfy. I enjoyed the fan as well. I also like the bed switch making it easy to on and off the light.
