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.).

GermanyGreat youth hostel in a beautiful historic building, surrounded by a lot of free space. Great for trips into town (the water taxi was a fantastic tip, ask reception about it!), very friendly staff, well-equipped kitchen, good breakfast options. Also a suitable base for trips to the Northern Cotswolds, Birmingham, Warwick, Oxford.

United KingdomThere were spiders in the room, potentially due to open windows that were needed to be left open as we stayed there in the peak of one of the heat waves in summer.

United KingdomWhat I didn't like was the rudeness and behavior of the previous guests. Specifically, outside my window, I could see trash thrown away by guests (socks, cosmetics packaging). Why do people have to behave in such a vulgar manner? The hotel's response exceeded my expectations.
This was my first time at this facility. I was very pleasantly surprised by the location and the entire building infrastructure. The friendly service and professionalism of all the employees ensure the highest level of service. My sons really enjoyed the surroundings. My younger son loves nature and could play among the trees in peace. My older son, on the other hand, praised the quality of the beds. He woke up in the morning and said he felt rested. This was the first time in nine days, during which we slept in different accommodations every day.

United KingdomI'm struggling to think of something negative to add!
As a sole traveller, the welcome from staff was wonderful. There was no delay in one staff member ensured the room was ready whilst the other member signed me in. Plenty of room and plug sockets. The room was clean and aired. There is an area to conveniently refill water bottles. Will defiantly stay here again.

BelgiumAll the stairs (that's a luxury issue though). Also, the place is a bit far from the center of Stratford-upon-Avon.
It was SOOOO quiet in the room. This is the second time I've slept so soundly because the room is so quiet and relaxing. I forgot that there was lots of other people there. The staff is SUPER friendly, nice, and helpful. There's almost like a forest behind it. It's so beautiful and relaxing.

United KingdomI hadn't realised that it would have been helpful to take a padlock with me for the locker. Likewise, a reminder to take a towel would have been good. The main problems were about the people staying, eg. I had two snorers in the room, so no chance of a good sleep! Do a swerve dive past the veggie sausages: yuk!
The staff were absolutely fabulous, very helpful and hardworking. The room was attractive. The shower was fine and clean. Breakfast was good.

GermanyThe house could use some modernising but it is a wonderful old building. The dryer was broken so you could only air dry, which wasn't a problem to me but it might be for others who are on a tighter schedule.
Very friendly staff all around the house. The rooms were big enough and the outside is beautiful. I had the continental breakfast and there was plenty to choose from. I appreciate that you could open the window in the dorms to let in fresh air during the nights especially in summer.
