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 KingdomGreat 2 night stay. Hosts Tony & Linda were really nice, breakfast A1+ really nicely cooked. Our room was spotless, comfy kingsize bed and had the added bonus of having a decent tv on the wall...spot on. You never know what you're going to get in Blackpool but having read the reviews for the Scala we gave it a try...we weren't disapointed.

Everything! The room was beautiful, the little fridge in the room was so handy, we even had a chaise in our room which was great to lounge on and use my laptop, while making full use of the free WiFi, which had a strong connection. Comfy beds, a big shower in the bathroom which was very nice, and the complimentary toiletries were a lovely added touch. Breakfast was fantastic, we liked that it is served later between 9-9:30 am, a great selection of cereals etc, hot filter coffee and juices. The cooked breakfast was delicious, hot, well cooked, the best fried eggs my mum's ever had! I'm lactose intolerant and this wasn't a problem, I was able to bring my own milk and butter alternatives, which they kept in the fridge for me. Tony and Linda are perfect hosts, nothing is too much trouble, we were welcomed with a smile and instantly felt at home. We had a parking space reserved for us at the front of the hotel which was great. We'll be back again soon!

United KingdomFriendly and accommodating owners, Tony and Linda are fantastic hosts who genuinely care about your stay. I found the whole property clean, tidy and in good order. My room came with a kettle with tea and coffee, as well as towels and toiletries. Breakfast items are ordered the day before, with the quality of the breakfasts being very high. Well stocked bar open until 11pm and accepts cash or card.

United KingdomNothing, I couldn't have asked for more for my requirements.
I stayed here as a solo guest for one evening and what a lovely place it was. Tony and Linda couldn't have done more, they even had time to join me for a drink in the bar, nothing was too much trouble. Everything was clean, the bed was comfy and the breakfast was lovely. If you're looking for a nice little gem in the south away from all the bigger places then this is a very good place to stay. Lee.

United KingdomThere is nothing these hosts can do to improve on the stay. Nothing is to much trouble for them.
The hotel was located just off the pleasure beach, in a quieter area of Blackpool, the hosts at this hotel are absolutely fabulous and friendly, nothing is to much trouble for them. There is a fully stocked bar, pool table and darts board, as well as a small sun lounge to play board games etc or just relax and have some quieter times. The rooms are clean and well equipped to meet your needs, with large tv, and small fridge. Breakfast is fantastic with hot full English, and cereal and toast, juices etc.

Everything at this hotel is excellent, Tony and Linda are exceptional hosts they could not do enough for us. I have been going to Blackpool for over 25 years and I have never seen a b&b that come anywhere near as good as this, and the breakfast is second to none, both the quality and quantity is unbelievable, the room tvs are smart tvs and come with Netflix and you tube, the location is ideal it's just a 5 minute walk to the nearest tram stop.

United KingdomThe room was a little plain. And it was all the way at the top floor. Would have preferred herby Cumberland or Yorkshire sausages with the breakfast.
The couple who ran the hotel were really nice and welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable, and even had a mini fridge (handy for alcohol). It was in the perfect location. Only minutes away from the rail station and a short walk away from the Pleasure Beach amusements :). I also liked the little touches from the 1920s. It had a lovely, 1920s art deco-like bar downstairs too. Breakfast was fresh.
