Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomPrivate bathroom was small and the floor had seen better days andxwas uneven. Shower was good, though! Car parking could be an issue.

United KingdomWe were in attic rooms. The larger twin room was ok and comfortable but the single was very pokey. The tv is really unwatchable from the bed and it really felt too small for the money and to be comfortable. I wasn’t sure what the procedure would be should there be a fire. This worried me as we were up very high. However, the manager did say they had not long taken it over so hopefully improvements will be made.
Hotel staff were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is in a great location for the city centre.

United KingdomNot a huge problem but I was on the ground floor by the stairs and thought I went to bed at about 11.30pm (so not early) I could hear everyone coming back as they talked and went up the stairs and moved around in their rooms which seem to have wood or laminate flooring. It wasn’t terrible, no one was being unreasonably loud and if I’d been asleep already I might not have noticed it but in that spot the acoustics aren’t great late at night.
Brilliant location near Exeter Central station, city centre and a small neighbourhood of shops and cafes. Easy for the university too which I needed to get to. Street was very pretty. Receptionist friendly. Room was good and nicely kitted out, good showed, coffee and tea making facilities. Lovely little hideaway. Lounge also looked nice but didn’t use it.

United KingdomThe mattress toppers need replacing.
Emily and Pedro and all the other staff I met were amazing. They were all friendly and helpful in everyway. The single room I had was comfy with a nice rooftop view. A 10 minute walk from Central station and a 20 minute walk to the Quayside. It was also a quiet and decent area. Apart from tea and coffee in the rooms they also had a speciality tea and coffee maker in the lounge. There was a also a very nice garden-patio. It was a great week staying with them and hopefully I will go back one day.
