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 KingdomCouldn’t fault it to be fair But maybe a cooked breakfast the hubby American and is in love with our English breakfasts And fruit would of been nice
We were greeted by Jullian and met his lovely wife Allison the next morning after a horrendous journey he made us feel so welcome. I loved that it was family oriented, and to get in it had a 3 lock system which made us feel really safe, our room was very spacious and had its own little living space which came in handy feeding the little one, it also had a little gaming console which kept our teenage nephew occupied whilst we where in the room I liked that where the space the bunk beds where there was a curtain divided the main room so we got a bit of privacy. The shower was roomy too, the beds where so comfortable and was lent a travel cot for the baby which she slept in really well. It was literally in the middle of Blackpool tower and pleasure beach fair so wasn’t far to walk either way and was super close to the south train station there where many restaurants and shops to get bits and food. There was continental breakfast and always stocked with a variety of cereals, pastries, yogurts and jams ect with a coffee machine and a choice of juices. Overall we absolutely loved our stay we couldn’t of wished for better hosts and would definitely recommend and visit again thank you for everything ☺️

United KingdomNothing, we felt it was perfect for the budget accommodation. Some other football team families stayed in very similar accommodation close by for more money but had poor reviews, so this is definitely s great option.
The location to the Pleasure Beach and the clean, fresh decor. Parking was great. Comfortable beds and friendly owners. Alison and Julian were super friendly and helpful. Partian curtain for my sons area of the room and lovely wee en suite that was freshly renewed. I really appreciated the little decor touches throughout the hotel. Breakfast had yoghurt, cereals, pastries and toast with lots of different condiments. Oh and real coffee machine and fruit juice! This place is 10 mins walk from the Pleasure Beach and only across the road from the promenade, it is an ideal location for those visiting the park. For a budget stay, this is a lovely, friendly place with little touches of seaside decor to add to the charm. Thanks again to you both and best of luck for the future.

Great place to stay in Blackpool. Only a few yards away from the beach. The property is great, took my daughters fir the Illuminations. We had two bedrooms which were large, well stocked with refreshments, clean and even had a Super Nintendo! Books and DVD's were also available. Breakfast was great, the dining area clean and well lit. Overall, this is a great place to stay if you're visiting the area. Highly recommended.

United KingdomAbsolutely great hotel with the owners making the experience! We stayed on Saturday 7th September after cycling to Blackpool from Manchester. Andy let us keep the bikes inside the hotel and let my friend who booked a different hotel come for breakfast with us! The hotel is in a great location and close to south pier. Would 100% book again when returning. Breakfast included in the price. Room was great spacious and clean. Fantastic hotel! Would highly recommend.

United KingdomThere wasn't anything we didn't like!
Just left after a 3 night stay, and the hotel was just great for such a great price! The location is great, short distance to south pier, pleasure beach and the water park and it's walking distance to central pier. The hotel room and en suite was clean on arrival, beds were super comfy and we all slept great. We had a mini fridge in the room which was handy and lots of coffee and tea in there. The hotel bar was good to have there for the evenings. Breakfast was also just great too. Everything about the hotel was great. Andy and his family are friendly and the atmosphere was easy going and it was just an overall great experience. We will definitely stay here again. Kids got a stick of rock as well before we left which they were made up with!
