Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomRoom was like a sauna, couldn't get it cool enough for comfortable sleep even with turning off the radiator and opening the window. Had to close the window at night as Saturday night and lot of noise outside. Walls thin so can also hear people moving about in adjacent rooms. Bed squeeked, not the most comfortable
Good location nr Station and centre, very friendly welcoming staff and very clean. Fresh coffee in the morning !

United KingdomRoom was a little bit tired, however it had what we needed and was very cosy.
Location okay, quiet, visited for a football match, ground about 20/25 mins walk away. Plenty of shops, eating and drinking places all within few minutes walk. Staff friendly and informative, suggested places for breakfast and pointed us the right direction. Tea and coffee selections in the room very good.

United KingdomAn optional breakfast would have been handy.
Had a great weekend visiting my daughter at university in Exeter. The location was ideal for my daughter’s accommodation and then going into town for shopping/restaurants. The staff were very friendly/approachable. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. Plenty of tea/coffee in the room.

Perfect location for visiting my son at uni and seeing a bit of Exeter. No parking on site but easy to park right across the road in a public parking. Staff were amazing, helpful and friendly and even offered some counselling to a stressed mum.

NetherlandsThe beds were lumpy and not comfortable. The shared shower was very small with no place to keep your clothes or towel.
Close to center and station. Facilities were good enough. Took a shared bathroom room with twin beds. Room was small but okay for one night. Staff was very friendly. There was a wash basin in the room.

AustraliaI was informed of was the last time they were serving breakfast there. For that reason i wouldn't chose Bendene again. Despite the wonderful staff, i like to have the option of breakfast.
The staff were amazing and it was wonderful to be able to have the option of breakfast at the premises. It saved me having to find a place in the town centre.

United KingdomBooking.com doesn't have the right images of the room I stayed in. I thought I was getting a desk in my room but I didn't have one, so I felt a bit misled. This room desperately needs updating, I noticed some safety hazards.
Very friendly staff member to welcome me. (Thank you for the restaurant recommendations - I loved the Dinosaur Cafe!) Cosy, comfortable single room with everything I needed.

SlovakiaThe room I originally booked (twin room) was incredibly dirty and unpleasant at first glance. However, after my complaint, they changed my room to a cleaner one, which I appreciate, the staff at the reception was very nice and helpful in that regard. Just please hire someone who will do a good job when cleaning the rooms, they hurt your reputation.
A good location close to the centre, nice people, comfortable bed.
