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 communal areas/hallways are run down, carpets need replacing, lick of paint etc. Thin bedroom walls, single glazed windows which rattled a lot during a windy night and let the cold in. These issues are difficult for the owner to address due to the obvious cost implications.
Location is ideal for the town. Free parking at the rear. The manager Wayne was very friendly and helpful. Room had a comfortable bed and a flat screen TV. Good price.

United KingdomNo alternative to butter was available (although I didn't actually ask for it); similiarly some non-dairy milk e.g. oat milk, would have been a nice/healthy addition. A bedside table and lamp in the bedroom (I booked a single room as I was on my own) would have been very useful.
The breakfast was very good value, especially if you have the cooked breakfast. I liked having fresh fruit on offer and also low fat yogurts. There was a choice of cereals including sugar-free muesli which was always my choice. And when I had the cooked vegetarian breakfast I was also pleasantly surprised. With plenty of filter coffee (I even had a cappucino on my first morning) and self service brown or white toast.

United KingdomThe bed could have been a bit comfier (I prefer a firmer mattress). I wasn't sure if the WiFi was working or not and I struggled to connect. The room could have had a few more furnishings - even just a bedside lamp would have been ideal.
Really quiet, and clean and very friendly staff - who were particularly helpful with looking after my bag pre-check in so I could go hiking in the area. Had a really nice breakfast and comfortable stay, would happily visit again.
