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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomThe on street parking was difficult on arrival, expected in Bristol but we eventually found a spot right outside. The host gave plenty of details in regards to this too!
This is a great space! Has everything you need and additional thoughtful touches. We only stayed one night but would definitely recommend and love to stay again with friends.

United KingdomI booked at one price, and two days later it was almost £20 cheaper. I asked if I could rebook at the lower price, as there were still enough days left before my booking date to do so, but no one responded. I sent several emails about it, and they promised to get back to me, but it never happened. The price difference was significant for me.
Apartment was great. Clean and everything what you need for staying for short journey. Good location, very close to the bus stop not far from center and airport.

United KingdomIt was great ! Will definitely re visit. I liked the area and we walked to Central Bristol no problem but for some it might be a little far to walk.
A great find in Bristol. Spotlessly clean with great facilities. The beds were really comfy and the shower great. Lots of lovely little touches like coffee bags and biscuits and an honesty bar.. I loved the independence of no staff and coming and going as we please. I was worried might be noisy but it wasn't at all .

United KingdomSome breakfast and kitchen facilities were provided (e.g. tasty granola), however it said milk would be provided in the communal fridge but wasn't. Maybe the welcome information in the room should be updated if this is no longer the case.
I was really impressed by the CoalShed. Quirky communal space, well located (of course that depends where in the city you need to be) and really comfortable room. I stayed for one night before staying with a friend – however I'd have been very happy to spend my whole trip here.

United KingdomThe area outside front door…a little bit mess and blocked by a bin (properly someone moved it unintentionally). Also there was only one coffee filter left in my room’s bar and I can’t any refill available in the kitchen lol. Would be better if adding alternative car parking in the welcome pack, e.g., The Diamond Street Carpark, where is just 10mins walk away from the hotel. Street parking outside the hotel wasn’t a good option, and the carpark of the private school mentioned in the welcome pack was a big confusion for someone rare travel or first time to Bristol! Instead, Diamond Street Carpark could be a third choice for those travel by car!
Amazing communal area with interesting design and facility. Soft drinks and alcohol is serviced. Tidy and clean kitchen. Comfortable room, beds, clean toilet, full set of self-helped bar!

Czech RepublicWe appreciated the chance to use the shared kitchen, plus the availability of tea and coffee. The room was very clean and comfortable (it was possible to adjust the room temperature), the bathroom was en-suite, which was great. The communal area with table tennis, pool and other things is great, excellent for a group of friends.

New ZealandKey box code to room 3 didn't work, had to ring to get key and waited half an hour for call back. Fire alarm went off at 5.40am - took ages for another guest to finally get hold of owners & learn how to turn it off. No bath mat and no hooks in bathroom to hang clothes or towel. No milk in room for cereal only sachet milk for hot drinks.
Good breakfast cereal and supplies in room, good kitchen facilities and supplies. Loved the honesty bar and snacks - great idea.

United KingdomThe location seemed a little run down, there was quite a lot of rubbish just outside the property and loads of graffiti all over the building (not 'street art') but that seemed common throughout the whole area. But there were lots of independent coffee shops, bars, restaurants etc to choose from! There was what looked like mould inside the fridge in our room annd the air conditioning unit made noise throughout the night even though it was turned off. Regardless of this, we would happily stay here again and we would make sure to make more use of the facilities!
The room was nicely decorated and clean and the bed was very comfortable. We liked the games in the communal area and the honesty bar. It was very quiet when we were there, we actually didn't see one other person and only heard a little bit of noise in the morning. The shower was lovely and good quality shampoo, conditioner and shower gel were provided.

It was clean, comfortable, spacious. I liked that I had my own little store of cutlery, plates and they provided a little bit of coffee to filter. Super convenient location for the purpose of my stay. Close to lots of interesting shops, bars and cafes.

Due to being vegan, I took my own breakfast, milk and butter. I don't expect these to be provided. It was good to have use of the microwave.
