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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomNothing significant to report!
What a lovely bunch of people!! Friendly, helpful and pleasant. It’s a great first impression to walk in through gardens that have had some serious effort put into them. The room was spotless, well equipped and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was great. It’s literally just around the corner to get down onto the sea front and an easy walk from the station. Overall, excellent!

CanadaThe heating system was not working. While we were given a space heater which worked fine, we would have preferred that some effort be made to get the radiator bled and functioning properly. The bus system did not operate after 5:45pm so it was awkward to have dinner, and then have to walk from a restaurant or take a taxi in the dark or rain. Chairs were beginning to look quite worn, but still comfortable.
Grateful for the many choices for breakfast, especially the fruit. The glassed in balcony provided a wonderful view and spot to relax, especially on rainy days. Wonderful to be able to walk to the beaches, train, gardens etc. Good access to busses downtown. Beautiful blooming orchid. Invitation to a lovely meal at Namaste. Appreciated extra warm throws.

Loved the view out the top floor windows. Had table and chairs that we could sit at and enjoy the view with a door to a outside small balcony. Really liked having a refrigerator in our room.

United KingdomThe cooked breakfast was nicely cooked and staff were accommodating re doing my egg well cooked. Good choice for continental breakfast.The only thing I would say was the cooked breakfast was ok amount for small eaters but I feel maybe a more generous helping would be welcomed.
The beds were extremely comfortable. If we could've brought them home we would have. Lovelyview overlooking the sea and added bonus of a balcony. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great so couldn't use it much.

United KingdomVery friendly and helpful staff. This is a traditional bed and breakfast, simple but very comfortable and warm rooms - I stayed in the winter. The place is old fashioned in style but its a good price and nice to support traditional b & b's rather than vacational homes which stay empty half the year. Thanks for a great stay!

United KingdomI wasn't keen on the requirement to say what time and what you want to eat for breakfast the day before. The decor was a bit run down a lick of paint would do wonders.
Great location, comfortable,clean and a very useful fridge.

United KingdomYes, there couple be a fresh lick of paint here and there but you can tell the build is old and for your money, the basic qualities were there and it was comfortable. The balconies attached to the top 3 rooms don't look very attractive but being open to the elements all year around, it didn't bother me.
Poltair has character and other than the basic comforts, it was quiet. The bed was comfortable for us and I know that varies from person to person. We had the en quite room with the bath, the rooms all bird names was something combe, I forget but it was a fair size and with a small bathroom. We also got given complimentary wine as it was valentines day which was an unexpected and nice touch and the hostess was polite. The staff serving breakfast were also polite attentive and we couldn't fault breakfast. Parking wasn't an issue but we did go in off peak times so getting a space on the road outside wasn't a worry.

United KingdomThe hotel is on the beach side - but more of a walk to the harbour and shops and where the majority of the restaurants and bars are. Only one cafe on the beach side. We had a family room and the double bed was quite small..! It was also a shame as the bedroom had a small balcony area but we couldn’t access it as the door was jammed shut/locked. The description said sea view.. which there is but it’s also partially obscured by buildings opposite.
Very nice breakfast, staff very friendly and efficient. Great location for the beach and there’s a lovely cafe up the road where we had lunch. Room was nice and bed was comfy.
