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 Kingdomthe rooms all smelled like urine. not the bathroom but the room itself which makes me think the smell is in the carpet. there was not air con so the windows had to be open which would cause the doors to rattle during the night and the ceiling tiles in the bathroom to lift up. because of the smell you have to keep the window open all night which means getting woken up by seagulls and cats. there was one day I went for breakfast and someone had found mouldy bread in the bread basket they left it on the side but I think if someone checked the breakfast area regularly to make sure that mouldy bread isn't left in the basket or next to it. it doesn't give the best impression of the breakfast if you see that.
the bed and the location. the bathroom was very clean, the sheets on the bed were clean too

United KingdomThe only negative is that the pool and leisure area were not operational, we could get passes for the leisure facilities in the next building but would have preferred to use in the hotel 🏨, it was one of the facilities we were looking forward to using.
We were very happy with the location, across the road from the beach 🏖️. Plenty of reasonably priced public transport for people not wanting to drive 😊. The outside of the building was not very appealing but the inside of the hotel was clean, tidy, nicely decorated and the staff were very helpful.

United KingdomThe key to one of our rooms did not work. So, I had to go to reception to open the door every time. Was not ideal with little children. It was going to be fixed in the morning though.
The beach on the door step was beautiful, with lots of grassy areas for kids to play on.

United KingdomVery outdated place and the exterior looks a bit rough. The one elevator that was working was very rarely actually coming and that was a bit rough for our elderly dog, considering our room was at the last story. Did not appreciate being quoted £30 for the updates (2x sea view and one dog) and was charged £40 in the end and told we should have paid even more although we received tons of emails and messaged the property beforehand as well for all we wanted. Did not really understand why the price increase when asked. Bit disappointing to be fair..
Good view, nice breakfast and accessible parking. Staff were very nice. The room was clean.

United KingdomSince our first visit around 6 years ago, it's gone down in that there are no Sunday lunches now, nor food during the lunch time. Only breakfast and evening meals. Unfortunately we had a noisy family which disturbed us on evening but that can't be helped and again a disco on another evening but again can't be helped.
Location. So near the beach, shop and bus stop nearby and several eating places. On the whole staff friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe furniture in the room was a bit dated and worn, could do with being updated. This did not impact our stay. It would have been better if there was a greater choice of menu items.
Location was excellent and we had a lovely spacious room. Staff were very helpful snd friendly. We had a meal in the restaurant which was lovely, great service.
