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 KingdomDue to a communication failure with booking. com the room was not heated when I came, fine on the second night though.
Having a guided tour of the museum/ workhuse really added to my enjoyment of the stay. I was the only occupnat and enjoyed the peace and quiet.

United KingdomI cannot lie...it was freezing!!!! The rooms have only electric heaters and I was there in the depths of winter..but there were blankets and I was totally cosy in bed and the super hot shower was heaven after braving the chilly bathroom, good for the circulation!! It was a real experience and I will remember it, come and stay so that the trust can buy more heaters!!
This is such an unusual place to stay, a historic workhouse in lovely countryside and when I got there I was the only guest! So I had the whole place to myself (and I thought it would be creepy - but it wasn't at all and I'm a scaredy cat!!!) If you are on foot like me the bus will drop you right outside (but note there is no service on Sundays) and the village has a great Spar shop for supplies plus a handy launderette and pubs/cafe's. There is a second-hand bookshop at the workhouse too and various events throughout the year, it's a bargain price too so give it a try!

United KingdomThere were no other travellers during my stay - felt slightly isolating on my first day but adjusted during the stay. A work in progress in terms of facilities/services - basic conditions (but you get what you pay for)!
Amazing location/historical building. Very friendly staff & artistic atmosphere. Safe staying as a Solo female traveller. Good value for £ - this Bunkhouse stay has a lot of potential. Has an on-site museum about the history of the Workhouse. Local village is walking distance and has very good facilities in terms of shopping and eating out. Easy access to local walks and visits to Lakes and Llangollen/Welshpool.

United KingdomThe wall heaters did not seem to work. Floors are tiled and cold and the washroom and showers have concrete floors. I got used to it after a few days. The booking.com info was not wholly accurate, as you do not need to book parking and there is Wifi available.
I had the place to myself and was self-catering, so it was easy to cook, eat, sleep, etc. It is in a beautiful area and very convenient for hill-walking. The place is part of a charity with limited funds and the man in charge was very helpful.
