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 KingdomWasn't enough supplies for hot drinks like sugar and milk. There wasn't any information in the room about the WiFi or WiFi password. There was a constant bleeping noise from smoke alarm, easy fix as Electrician as wired it wrong so the rechargeable battery inside would only be charged up when the light is on, needed to be wired to constant live so battery will get charged all the time so no bleeping then. Room was at top. For me not a problem with stairs, apart from lack of headroom due to the roof, I am 5'6" and just about managed to go down middle of room where light is but had to bend down or on my knees to do a drink or goto bed.
I liked the location of where the railway inn was located, very close to the railway, bus stops, town and beach front.

United KingdomPub was lively, lots of fruit machines, sports screens and live music, it might have been noisy in the evenings on 1st floor rooms. The toilets and shower cubicle were on first floor down steep steps.
It was good value for money, clean and comfortable, and the landlord and lady were friendly and helpful. Down a quiet alley, very close to beach and centre of town. Our room was a bedsit style with kitchen area, microwave, fridge and and hob. It was on 2nd floor and very quiet.

United KingdomNo complaints. Good budget accommodation
location, right nearby railway station Good price , the proprietor describes accurately what the facilities are . At the weekend the pub below has entertainment and is very vibrant ! If you’re up to partying go down and join ‘em! You never know you might enjoy yourself! if you are after a quiet night in this is not the place for you , stick another £100 on your bill and find someplace else . That said at 23:00 it stops , end of. which is not ‘ unreasonable. I am not putting this in the negative section as it a subjective view and I was ok with it , others my not be .
