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 KingdomIt's a bit soulless. No one about. All remote with keys accessed via a key box at the door. Rooms are Spartan with IKEA furniture, and there is traffic noise. Beds very spongy. Water in shower difficult to set temperature.

United KingdomThere was no hairdryer in the room. It’s quite dark coming down the steps and you walk into a side road so I’d advise to have your torch on your phone ready.
Very comfortable bed. Quiet room even though the property is on the main road.

United KingdomThere is nothing positive to say above this hotel, after two nights we checked out we were due to stay for ten nights for work commitments but due to the lack of service and the neighbours dog barking at all hours, and then the dog owner shouting abuse when he was asked to stop the dog barking, we had to leave.
This is should not be called a hotel. It does not have the normal services that you would expect from a hotel, from servicing of the rooms to provide clean towels daily.

United KingdomA opening window in the bedroom to help ventilation or a fixed fan. But that's just me trying to be constructive not a dislike.
The owners were brilliant, helping me with a printer and use of their pc. The price was great, the room was great. And the breakfast was top draw. Don't look at the old reviews, there has been a lot of renovations and the difference from what It was now its under new management has been done well.

Brilliant value for money, fairly basic but perfectly good 👍 Although I didn't book breakfast, I did eat there one morning and it was really good. Location is close to a main road but good for access to East Anglia. Staff were friendly and helpful, a family run business.

United KingdomI have no complaints in relation to my stay.
Having chosen this property due to its availability & relative (considering what was available at the time) closeness to Snetterton race track. The new owners are fantastic, having taken over recently they're really putting their all into making OYO The Billingford Horseshoes a success. The revamped bedrooms are exceptionally spacious & well furnished. There is sufficient off road parking. The property is more a 3.5 - 4 star property rather than the 3 star so in my opinion you're getting better than expected
