How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe staff on the desk were very helpful.
The bed was uncomfortable. The bulbs in the lights were very dim. All the furniture feels very much like it is left over from the uni halls furniture. The bathroom was falling apart. All in not a great stay.

Verified reviewLocation was really good for us as we both drive. Stayed 2 nights bed and breakfast and both enjoyed our stay. The room was great, really clean and had everything you needed. Loads of storage for your belongings, hairdryer, shower gel, towels, kettle with tea and coffee, even had a fan if it was too warm 😊 Breakfast was so good. Cooked breakfast, chopped fruit, yoghurt, fresh fruit, cereal, toast and tea or coffee 😊
The only fault we had was the bed was a little hard for us oldies 😆

Staff are not polite and professional as this is a student dormitory, not a hotel. My room was in a very bad location and noisy just next to a place students gather and speak. They made noise till 9pm
Dear Adel, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. Mitchell Hall primarily operates as university accommodation, and at times there may be noise from areas where students gather, which we understand can be disruptive. This is not the experience we aim to provide to our guests, and it is certainly not our usual standard. We always strive to ensure a welcoming and comfortable environment, and we sincerely apologise that we fell short during your visit. Your comments have been noted, and we will take them on board to make improvements where possible for future guests. Kind regards, The Hotel Management

Part of a wedding party sat outside talking and laughing loudly till 1.15 am and then 2 returned to the room next to me making lots of noise and talking loudly about those attending the wedding until 1.45 when at last it was quiet enough to sleep.
