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 Statesit was basically the size of a university dorm room, which I didn't mind, but I figured was worth mentioning. If you absolutely can't do small spaces, maybe look elsewhere.

United Kingdomit was a bit tired and grubby. the TV was a pain to set up. The courtyard bit was underwhelming and grubby. No soap in the bathroom and no tea towel for the mini kitchen. It is marketed as a hotel but it’s not - it’s an Airbnb.
location is great for the pier and beach. Beds were comfy but to sleep 4 people would have been push.

United KingdomThe bathroom in general is quite compact, especially the shower. The shower head also didn’t stay up so made hair washing interesting!
The location of One Broad Street is fantastic, right by the beach and pier and close to all of the amenities in the area with multiple shops, bars and supermarkets nearby. It was clean and perfect for what we needed. The room also comes with an iron and hairdryer which was very handy. Overall a great stay 👍🏻

GermanyTeeny tiny complaint: we are quite green ourselves but the amount of water coming out of the shower makes the shower take thrice as long, which kind of nullifies the water saving effect? 😉
Loved the design, the homeliness and the location so close to the pier and beach! Our kids were happy about the ability to watch netflix and youtube on the telly. 😊 Never saw anyone there, it all worked out keyless and via correspondence.

United KingdomIt did say in the description (so my fault) that there was no lift but the 7 flights of narrow stairs was a killer! Also, there was no chair in the room so we just had to sit in the beds. Shower needed unblocking as it pooled up quite quickly. Kitchenette was a great addition though. Overall a good spot and would recommend.
Great location, easy to find and handy just having a door code.

United Kingdomthe shower was blocked to the point it nearly overflowed (it was sorted quickly but is unacceptable to have this as it caused us to run late due to not being able to use the shower for a while) Only one hand towel was provided. The coffee machine leaked There was a sink and kitchenette but no tea-towel to dry up with once you had washed the plates.
the rooms was nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. The location was good but it was a little noisy.

United Kingdomthe small remote didn’t work properly for the tv and had a piece missing, the voltage was too low from the plugs so my phone wouldn’t charge, there was a light bulb missing… it’s the little things you notice!
compact but perfect for a night away. I love the design and the coffee machine was a big bonus! even though we were downstairs by the street it wasn’t that noisy really, probably because it was a Sunday night.

United KingdomWe stayed in March this year and last year and the price of the room was excellent value for money for the size of it. We looked to book again next year and the price had significantly increased. It is no longer value for money and you can stay in a much bigger room in a hotel located closer to town for a cheaper or comparable price so we will no longer be booking this facility and have already booked different accommodation for next year.
Location is good for the beach and town area. There are kitchen facilities with basic amenities. Room was clean and shower was ok. Check in was easy.

United KingdomOur room (3) was fairly small. Dimmer switch on lights didn't work very well so lights had to either be very bright or off and there were no lamps.
Tidy, clean and comfortable room. Building was quiet and felt solid (which is rare in these kind of small Kemptown hotels!) - no squeaking floorboards or noise carrying from other rooms, and not too much noise coming from the street despite being a busy area (plus the earplugs provided blocked out what did make it through). Fridge and coffee machine great bonuses. Perfect city centre location.
