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 StatesNothing- I found little signs all over the place that made me laugh out loud!
Whoever started this hotel had a lot of imagination and a great sense of humor! The place is awesome! Bed was comfy, heated floor in bathroom, you get a free welcome drink and a dinner when you arrive, the location is great, the rooftop bar was fun, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful- just cannot say enough! I double- booked a room and I didn't mean to- they refunded the money! I would definitely recommend the place and if ever in Manchester again- we know where we're staying! P/s- don't miss the downtown library- what a treat! Moose Coffee is pretty yummy too

United KingdomWe had a fantastic experience at the Doghouse and a pleasurable stay, with its industrial style decor and hipster vibes this is definitely recommended for anyone looking for something different and a little bit quirky. The room is well stocked with beers, spirits, wine, soft drinks and snacks and you are also equipped with a large TV, sound bar and record player with a selection of vinyl records from Manchester artists. The restaurant offers a good range of food and the breakfast was outstanding. I would definitely consider booking again.

United KingdomThe hydration station was giving out warm water and the heating in our room did not work, the application was actually broken when we arrived. Luckily we did not need it, however it was a shame as it was loose.
Friendly staff and were very helpful. Location was excellent, very central and how the noise could not be heard from the bar nor the busy road. It was quiet, pleasant and comfortable.

United KingdomThe breakfast was OK but not great. I had the smashed avocados which came with salsa and sweetcorn. This completely changed the taste and not for the better as the avocado and poached egg were overwhelmed. However, the general quality was good and if I had chosen something else I expect I would have nothing to complain about.
The burger was tasty and the beer complimented it well (the Lost Lager, I think). I liked the quirky style, although the red neon in the room takes some getting used to. If I was there socially rather than on business, I would have appreciated the facilities a bit more. All in all it was great - the central location is very useful.

AustraliaThe choice of wines was limited and the cocktails were mostly pre made ones. I think having the made freshly would bring more people in.
The rooms were small but the use of space was very good and comfortable as well as having a fun vibe. All of the facilities in the room were good and everything was available that you would need. The pub bit also had a good vibe and whilst we don’t have a dog, you can see why people love it for their dogs. The food was also good and the service was very friendly and efficient.

United KingdomHaving to leave after our stay.
This is the second time I've stayed here on my birthday and I'll be staying here again in the future. It's a must for any BrewDog/beer fan. The location is in the centre and you have everything on your doorstep. The rooms are amazing. So clean with a very comfortable double bed, large selection of beers in the fridge and snacks from your own snack bar. The shower is perfect and very spacious. There is a guitar to play along with a record player with vinyl included. Also anything you like in your room IE the bath robe, drinking glasses, bottle opener, umbrella, bottles of spirits etc can buy to take home amd keep! You get a free pint when booking in and £15 off your food order too. I'll absolutely be back for my 3rd stay of that I'm sure :)

We absolutely loved the free candy bar on our floor- such a perfect addition to getting in bed and having a bit of a treat before dozing. Also, there was a great complimentary section (tea, coffee, vegan alternatives, etc.). Staff was super helpful- great attention to detail including umbrellas for the wet weather we experienced.
