Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaEverything from check-in to check-out was done online. Even the room keys were in a lock-box!!! I prefer to see someone at reception & be able to talk to them. I had trouble checking in online, but Jas was helpful with things I couldn't do. Parking was unavailable & we had to park a long way away from the property.
The property has a lovely outlook.

United KingdomRoom was warm. Fan supplied which was very good but unfortunately only one window could be opened. The other needs a repair. Also, not sure sensor light directly outside of the door was working so very dark initially on leaving the room and when trying to lock up

United KingdomThe only thing was that we couldnt watch the tv as it kept saying no signal and our balcony had a lot of cobwebs especially on the seats
Lovely property the room was great and just across the road from the pier and close to all amenities, the room was very spacious with everything we needed, the complimentary water in the fridge was much needed as it was a boiling hot day on our arrival, the bed was huge and really comfortable and loved the bath & my husband loved the shower

United KingdomEverything was great for us,
Location was perfect, everything what you needed was on the same street, lots of walking opportunities. Clean room, great, clear communication, we had a room from the courtyard where you could sit in the evening. On the 3rd floor was a cupboard with extra cutlery, wine glasses and books, great idea.

United KingdomHaving to park our car on the street behind during the day but we understood that this was not the fault of the apartment owner.
It was perfect, the location, the sea view. The facilities in the room were excellent, the Nespresso machine was a lovely touch. All the furnishings were beautiful. The bed was comfortable. The table and chairs in the window were fab, we enjoyed our morning cuppa with amazing sea views, couldn’t have asked for more. Check in was so easy.

United KingdomThe days we stayed the weather was very hot. The room was a bit too hot despite having a fan. We couldn’t open the windows fully. It would be nice to have AC.
It had a very nice view of the seaside and pier. Great walkable area to the train station to get to the center and Cardiff Bay.
