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.).

PeruThey didn't want to give me a bill, they don't replace the toilet paper, the other guests leave dirty pots and pans and no one takes care of it. The heater on the 3rd floor only worked and the beds are not very comfortable.
The place had a large kitchen to cook in, the room was cleaned weekly and the sheets were changed. It had well-equipped washers and dryers and the wifi was fast.

United KingdomThis is really a house of multiple occupancy where people live so you are actually moving into someone else's home which I found a little uncomfortable. There is a large communal kitchen but again I felt awkward using it as it was full of other people's every day living food, utensils etc. It all felt a bit like imposing myself on a young person's hostel. Initially there were no staff available except at the end of a contact centre phone line. I did get a direct phone number later. Also the window in my room looked out directly on to the street at only waist high so the blind had to be fully down for any privacy.
The room was a good size, clean and comfortable. It was decorated to a modern high standard and I liked having the little fridge in the room.

Comfy bed. Glad you don’t have to carry around a room key and its a code for your room. Nice shower. Pleasant location

United Kingdomyou can hear absolutely everything, due to the shared kitchen downstairs you could smell other peoples foods and the beds were rly low to the floor which wasn’t great! we always paid the same price as another couple we traveled with and they were left with a nicer room than us? which isn’t really fair considering we paid the same yet they were upgraded
lovely decor and nice as it was across from the pub

United KingdomSince there are many different people coming in and out, you can hear doors being opened and slammed. People playing music loud. Someone left skid marks in the toilet. Value for money but wouldn't recommend getting shared bathroom. Also bring ear plugs if you plan on having an early night.
Was decent and good price. Location is next to Lidl and Sainsbury's. Also next to fast food places and barber shops. 20min walk from Stoke station too.

United KingdomThe kitchen sink was full of dirty utensils, checking in was a nightmare, opening the security lock was a nightmare, the location is terrible just in between shops ,the house smelt not fresh all stuffed and beddings smelt like thay had just been used ,I booked for a super double bedroom and I was given a small double bed which had stained white pillows,very old spring box mattress bed with springs sticking out which made out nights sleepless. Terrible and waste of money never recommend any one sensible to use this however desperate you may be in fact couldn't believe such terrible accommodation existed in places like the UK costing a fortune for nothing. Never to use Townhouse again,first time and last. Customer service is the worst you will ever get any where. They display fake pictures on their booking website and check you in completely different rooms,it's a fraud don't use
Completely nothing apart from the shower though it was a very small shower room.

United KingdomCouldn't access property on the first night. I was told to sign details in an email which I never received, so didn't get the codes until late. I'd been trying to contact the property for over two hours and waited outside in the cold for a return phone call. I had to make alternative arrangements for the first night. It was quite noisy at night with doors banging and the traffic, though I know that can't be helped. I'm hoping I maybe able to get refunded for losing a night.
Ensuite was nice and the tea and coffee making facilities. It was near to town.

United KingdomThere is no staff at the premises. Because of that, we had an issue with the broadband after a power cut during a storm that could not be resolved until the next day. Nonetheless, the staff was always responsive and helpful via whats app.
It is a quiet place, the rooms are tidy and clean. It has a kitchen with all appliances necessary to cook your own meals. The overall quality is good for the price. It is well-connected by train or bus. I would recommend.

United Kingdomthe facilities did NOT work. I paid for the bath tub in the room which was an additional cost however I did not receive the benefit of this as the bath plug was broken. This issue was raised with the management team during my stay however no communication was received until the day I was checking out. I have since sent many messages about refunding the additional cost, however the communication was been EXTREMELY poor and on occasion I have even been ignored. Approx 2 months later and I am still waiting on an answer re refund. Not at all happy with the service.
