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 KingdomHaving to choose a slot for breakfast as breakfast room fairly small so limited space when most rooms are booked. Shower in our room on the 3rd floor very weak.
Location is excellent. Good choice of breakfasts. Permit parking easy and cheap.

United KingdomI could have done with a shelf or storage rack under or above the sink to put my toiletries on and my toothbrush. The shower does need a shower mat as when using products I found my feet sliding all over even on the raised bumps. Other than that it was a lovely little room with an excellent view of the sea.
That I got a lovely little single room with a sea view on the second floor with quite a large en suite.

United KingdomThe walkup the 70 stairs to my room!!!! 😂😂 I was told that I would be on the 4th floor beforehand Wish there had been a 'toiletries shelf. In the bedroom or bathroom!!!
It was very clean and the brealfast was absolutely lovely. I couldn't have asked for a better location amd it was really good value for momey! As a single traveller, to have a fantastic sea view in a single room is very unusual as you normally get stuck at the back of the hotel! guest house!!! Thank you xx

United KingdomThe only thing we can complain about - which is minimal was the bed... The bed wasnt the most comfortable after night one. Obvliously this is personal preference, which could be an 'us' issue as we're used to a very soft mattress.. But dont let this put you off because beds are just for sleeping!
The location of the Guest house is perfect- right on the cliff front and only a short walk to the town. The staff were so friendly and helpful- You can pay £3 for parking from the guest house in the zones, which is great! Breakfast is great, you can pick anything you like from the menu and can change this daily- or you can help yourself to cereal, toast, fruit or ask for porridge which is also so great if youre fussy like me! Another bonus, your room is cleaned every day and you can also have fresh towels every day if you require them! There is literally no noise- which is GREAT. We did not hear a thing from neighbors or from outside.. and we had the windows open. There was also lush blackout curtains which was amazing if you're looking for a cheeky lay in.
