Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomStain on stairs carpet, obviously some damp issues on entrance, outside terrace needing cleaned, bed not very comfortable, no sockets near mirror in bedroom for drying hair etc., mirror in bathroom should be above the sink, a few tweaks and apartment would be exceptional.
Location, near waterfront and close to local shops and bars.

The location was fab , the bed was comfy & the shower was great .

United KingdomFirst impressions a very large stain on hall carpet and a very bad smell of damp. Cobwebs in bathroom and on lights. Badly needs a new mattress for the bed. Balcony door didn't lock - no key leaving apartment unsecure. Balcony hasn't seen a brush in sometime paint all over table and chairs. This apartment is in an ideal location with some tlc it could be a wee goldmine. Felt we overpaid for what we got.
A great location

United KingdomStair carpet was drab and for first impressions not good. The kitchen bin had waste from previous guest and ceramic plant pot on balcony an inch of cigarette butts and water - it stank. I had to take both waste downstairs and put in bin on street. Before leaving, we deposited our own rubbish in the same way. Only white cups & saucers, no China mugs. All white crockery, thereby lacking colour / style. In bathroom, a 2 ft long cobweb running the length of the ceiling above the shower. Shower water drained away too slowly, so standing in water for a brief shower. Had difficulty getting the password to work, as the typed note on the wall mirror was incorrect. We finally found a faded piece of paper on the microwave with hand written password. With the above mentioned, it was not a luxury apartment. I stated all these points to the receptionist at the hotel where we collected the door key. Now I have written the above down, the apartment was quite unfavourable for our 1 night stay and the cost did not reflect what we got.
We self catered. Quiet in the evening. Kept cool in the hot weather by opening the windows. Cooked our own dinner. Near to the harbour for an evening walk and a run and walk in the morning before breakfast. Spacious interior to put our belongings. Comfortable bed and soft towels. Shelving space in bathroom. Good lighting. We choose the apartment as close to the harbour for walking. Felt safe.

United Kingdomwe were not told that there would be a staircase up to the property with a very dangerous top step with rlimsy railings The shower tray did not empty sufficiently. After three minutes it filled up and would have overflowed had we not turned off the shower. We could not close the blind over the bed which meant that the light came in at 5 am in the morning and considerably reduced our sleep. The property was described as luxurious but it did not have a dishwasher and the crockery and glasses were a weird assortment which looked as if they had been taken from a charity shop. double yellow lines on the road outside the apartment along with hit or miss parking opposite the apartment makeloading and unloading luggage difficult . This is not a luxury apartment
The property was in an ideal position to visit our family.

United KingdomNeeding attention: several missing light bulbs, lack of small glasses, right-hand bedside shelf fixing loosening. There is no warning that central heating radiators are not operational. Had to call for information about heating. Although wall mounted and freestanding radiators eventually warmed sufficiently, shower room had no heat.
Excellent location, stylish design and furnishings, comfortable bed and sofa.

United Kingdomkey collection was easy however they could have given us better instructions on how to get to the property. It took a us a while to find it.
The property is very spacious and we particularly enjoyed the balcony which has a decent view of the hotel in the big hill. The property is close to all the amenities in town and close to beach. The flat was very clean and the kitchen has got a fair amount of kitchen supplies. Comfy bed too.

United KingdomNo dislikes really. I personally felt the bed could have been better, but that’s personal taste/comfort. Parking near to the property isn’t easy during the day, so there had to be a bit of musical cars in the evening to try and grab some on street parking across from the apartment. However, it’s not exactly a big town so the main car parks at the harbour aren’t far away
Perfect location and a very comfortable stay for a mini break. Very spacious and airy.
