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 KingdomThe room wasn't decorated as advertised however we were given an early check in so this may have been the reason we were provided with this room. There was plenty of options for continental breakfast but I would have liked there to be a buffet breakfast and someone serving. Nevertheless, the place was clean and the hosts were friendly.
The room was clean, we were able to have an early check in, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Location is superb.

United KingdomParking can be an issue, however there is a car park behind Mary House. Free between 6pm and 8am. The tv being up at the side of the bed. However this did not spoil my stay.
Loved the location. Central for everything and a short walk to beach. Porthcawl is a lovely place to explore. No noise from street etc. Great nights sleep in comfy bed. Staff very helpful and pleasant. Continental breakfast suited me fine.

United KingdomCould have done with a mirror in the bedroom. There was only one and that was on the bathroom wall. WiFi signal was also hit and miss.
Clean and comfortable room with en-suite and a lovely powerful shower. Plenty of storage in room to unpack and put stuff if you’re staying for a few nights. Breakfast was help yourself continental with a big choice of cereals, bread, cereal bars and pastries. Great location very close to sea front and town with an array of shops. Emma greeted me on arrival, very friendly and was on hand if I had any queries. Would definitely stay here again.

FinlandShower water pressure was quite low and no window to open at bathroom. Room furniture were outdated and general look wasn't grat at hall. One idea how room would improve is add a usb charger point, now used TV for loading phone.
Location middle on town. Bed, blanket and pillows were great. Bathroom was cleaned well. Basic breakfast were fine for me, I didn't expect more.
