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 KingdomNo breakfast option, vending machine had nothing in, went outside in the morning and saw 3 rats around the streets surrounding the hotel. Location was in a convenient place for us ,but after speaking with locals we were at event they said we were brave to me staying in that area. No decent food places around and as a coeliac person really struggled to eat at the weekend. Would also suggest putting some outside seating on the grass out the front to allow smokers somewhere to go instead of standing at the entrance. It’s a very noisy hotel and we could hear people walking about most of the night. Was it the worst hotel no, was it the best also no and I wouldn’t return unfortunately. It could be a real gem of a place with some love and tlc.
Staff went above and beyond to have our room ready early for us and was clean and bed was comfy for our stay.

United KingdomTwin room with 2 single beds, one mattress was very uncomfortable as I could feel the springs and I don't think the mattress was hotel standard.The ensuite shower room was far too small to move to towel dry yourself. Car parking was £5.00 per night but was advertised as free parking on Booking.com. No hairdryer was provided and had to leave with wet hair. Also no shower gel supplied, we had to use own gel, forunately we had sense to bring our own provisions. Not very impressed as the main areas of comfort were not addressed or supplied.
The location was ok, and a good supply of tea, coffee and biscuits.

United Kingdomholes in the wall and corners of room, kettle didn't work, extractor fan was loud in bathroom. Some broken tiles in bathroom, shower drain a bit grimy, but rest of bathroom pretty clean, which is good. Room was far too warm with no way to turn the heater off.
Front desk staff were friendly, got deposit back as soon as we checked out. Not too far from the city centre, 10-15 minute walk in a straight line and a 5 minute drive. Rooms were mostly clean. Check in was quick, our group's rooms were placed together. wasn't much noise from other rooms.
