Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomPoor breakfast on offer and ridiculously cheap. Decent breakfasts cost £13 to put on properly and it’s not included in the stay so it’s a choice and so this hopefully changes.

United KingdomYou have to pay for breakfast. At the price they charge, you would expect breakfast at no extra cost
The location was very good and there was plenty of parking. Because there was street food van there, the day we got there meant you could not have a meal at the pub. My mother is elderly and did not like what the street food van had so she could not have food at the pub and I had to take her to another place to eat.

United KingdomThey put us in a smoking room adapted to a room for travellers with a small dog. The smell was really intense and I also paid extra for the dog, which is something that normally doesn’t bother me but this time really got me. The food was very poop and dinner expensive too compared to quality of food.
The location was fine for the purpose of our journey but there weren’t anything else but this property around so very difficult find other place where to eat or buy something. The village is very small indeed. The breakfast wasn’t the best, really poor but fair to the price paid for it which is not included in the booking.

United KingdomThis is a minor point but the window latch was damaged making it difficult to open and leave on the latch to allow fresh air into the room on a hot day.
The location was convenient for local atractions and the Full English breakfast was very good. The staff were friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home. We had a lovely stay and are looking forward to visiting again.

United KingdomThe pub food was good and the beer was a good price, the beer garden was very good.The pub itself was as expected but the noise was minimal,there is a church bell but didn't wake us up thro the night,the most important part of any business is its staff and a huge shout out goes to Adelle who's people skills are excellent and not forgetting Carol the cleaner. All in all, we enjoyed our short 3 night stay and would stay again without hesitation.

NetherlandsThe room could do with a bit of TLC - it was clean enough but a bit dusty, needed some little repairs, and it felt somewhat cramped (could only open 1 of the 2 cupboard doors because of other furniture).
Very cheerful and friendly staff, comfortable (though creaky) bed, accessible room & shower, and a patio door opened directly to the outside area.

United Kingdomwe were disappointed with the breakfast, as we could not have this before 10am. Also, my husband felt the 'full English breakfast' was meagre and they had no breakfast cereal. I enjoyed the scrambled egg on toast, but at £6.95 thought it a bit pricey. The pub bar and lounge could certainly do with a make over.The staff
our room was clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed and on the coldest weekend of the year, it was warm.
