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 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):
- 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.).

Probably that I didnt stay longer. Oh hubby has a lower limb amputation. Was not able to use bath without help. The room we were in has bath length shortened by bit of a wall. Hard to get his leg swung in. He dont always want to ask about disabled room because mostly they have a shower only.
The staff are an asset to the hotel cannot complement the staff highly enough. Could do with a Big sign on the building with Hotel name. Having Fibromyalgia your matresses were close to mine. I actually slept well.... never happens in most hotels for me.

Might not suit everyone who likes to lounge around a hotel but for a convenient stopover, it was great.
Brilliant location within Aston University campus. Perfect for our campus trip but also good central location at good value. Great buffet breakfast too.

I was really looking forward to having a swim but it was closed. This was the main reason for booking.
I was lost and in pain as I presently have a physical disability but the ladies at reception were so patient and kind guiding me on the phone to the hotel which I struggled to find but one of them actually came out to meet me. I was so happy and relieved and wished I wrote their names down so they can be recognised and awarded somehow for their kindness.

The one drawback is access and parking arrangements if you are driving as the on-site carpark 12 is not free and quite a good walking distance away when you have a lot of luggage (which I did), so this means multiple trips back and forth. The directions to the carpark also did not align with Google Maps or the Sat Nav which was confusing. Maybe something to take up with Google Maps.
The room was well appointed, clean, comfy bed and quite a good size. It included everything you need for a comfortable stay and what made things better than elsewhere is the mini fridge inside the wardrobe. It was also quiet with access to a water dispenser in the lift area on each floor. Access to the bedrooms' corridor through the room key card also ensure safety. The staff were all lovely and helpful and the food at the restaurant was very nice with cooked breakfast cooked on demand (no horrible powder scrambled egg). The restaurant was fairly peaceful with good arrangement for breakfast (even with a very large group of teenagers on day 1). Walking distance to the centre, on the Moor street station side. Would definitely use again.

Got a ticket for parking as I had a disabled member of our party and couldn't find anyone to help and ended up with a ticket despite having a blue badge on display. The number we were told to call to book swimming was never answered even though I called over ten different times. When I finally made contact they were fully booked and the only reason we had chosen the accommodation and been willing to pay extra was not available, yet it said nothing about booking online.
Breakfast and the room were great.
