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 KingdomBeds could have been a little comfier - but everything else was spot on.
Close to the centre, cosy little room for our family of 3. All facilities were available to us, which were very handy. I would definitely stay at the bunk rooms again. Communication was also spot on! Thank you :)

United KingdomShower was there, but barely any water coming. Towels were there, not soft or bright. Bedding was not too comfy. Space was just walk way around bed. It is not bad place but very much on budget. But we got it because of price.
Messaging about access was perfect. Place was generally clean, to man's not woman's standart. Good WiFi. As mentioned on add no private parking but 100ish yards down the street is train station parking with £9 per 24h, so not too bad. Room did not stink, no smoke or old smell.

United KingdomReally can't complain about anything but we stayed midweek and I can imagine earplugs may be required over a busy weekend.
Welcoming host, very reasonably priced, was surprised that we were so well catered for with a well equipped kitchen, dining room and lounge. Facilities were all very clean. It's very convenient for both the railway station and central Chester.

United KingdomTo be honest, we paid a budget price, the room was basic but clean, no TV or kettle in the room, but this was all available downstairs.
Great price, location is a five-minute walk into the heart of Chester. Communal room with DVDs, and a self-catering kitchen. Room was clean, and the beds comfortable. The Deva bar across the road is a sure-fire winner for real ale lovers too!

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing.
The location was perfect. Right across from the train station. 10 minute walk into the very centre. Across the road and up a bit are lots of shops and takeaways. Perfect for late night snacks as my teens did. It was lovely and quiet so we all got a brilliant sleep. The kitchen is AMAZING. Just label your items in the fridge as our milk was mistaken for someone else's. There is a really great room with lots of tables and chairs to eat. A very large tv and lots of dvds to watch and sofas. Ease of coming and going as you get given the codes to the doors. WiFi was very good. Even though our room had bunkbeds and a double bed, there was plenty of room, and nobody was under anyone's feet. We overlooked a lovely yard, which is done up perfectly. Clean towels and shower gels were provided, but we had taken our own. There are plenty of plug sockets. I have already tried to book another date that I need but they have no vacancies, unfortunately. I highly recommend here 100%

SpainSome Archeology students on a field trip could have been tidier in the communal kitchen, but this is NOT the fault of The Bunkhouse
Excellent "home from home" in my old home town. Owner Graham friendly and helpful. Within easy walking distance of the city centre and just a couple of hundred metres from the Railway Station, The Bunkhouse is perfectly located for visitors to beautiful Chester. It is definitely my choice of accommodation when in this area.

I needed to stay in Chester for one night only in my way to Wales and I booked a room with private bathroom and with a good price for the value and my decision to choose The Bunkroom was very good. The room was very clean, the lady who met me was very kind and helpful. Although the view of the room is on a street it was quit and I could sleep well. There is a common kitchen and a terrace. The location is very near to the tourist attractions in Chester, I found free parking for the evening and night at the train station nearby.

United KingdomOnly small niggle I had was related to other guests being super loud early in the morning. This is of course not the property's fault and can't be helped when others have an early departure for flights etc. I would just say, if you're a light sleeper bring some ear plugs as a just in case.
Really comfy, pleasant owners who were really helpful when had issues with the lock for my room, all the basics provided, and lovely spacious room.
