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 KingdomWe arrived to be told the room (double)was not available due to an electrical fault, they offered a alternative room, two single beds (twin) there were no others available. We took the room, however the bathroom/shower room was full of mould. We decided just to get on with it and stay, as the rest of the room was clean and tidy apartfromthecobwebs up on the ceiling, later that evening I found out that they had a double booking in my name, and would try and resolve this before I was charged double for both rooms, (booking. Com) also I was not charged the correct price as per my booking confirmation, the manager apologised and said he would resolve the issue.
How close to the local shops, restaurants.

United KingdomFront-facing room was very noisy (particularly in mornings). Decor was straight out of 1970's 'Fawlty Towers' (except it was Hailsham High Street out the window, not Torquay!)
Comfortable, clean bed. Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff. Centrally located in Hailsham.

Location was ok but parking is a problem. Just a few spaces at back of property and the locals just use the disabled bay in front as their personal parking spot

United KingdomThe days we were there it was very hot around 32 degrees we got back to our room at night it was stifling heat we had left curtains down and window slightly down to try and keep it cool, unfortunately with the window partly open at night the noise from refrigeration plant at Iceland shop next door was really loud which made it hard to sleep. The hotel kitchen extractor fans switched off at 9-30 pm so it wasn’t coming from there. Would not stop there again because of this not the hotels fault .
Food was very good ,staff were very friendly and helpful and cheerful good choice of breakfast we had an evening meal with family and friends all had various meals and all said the same meal was very good

United KingdomI'd have liked a chair in the room, but there was plenty of hanging space for clothes.
I had a sound night's rest in a cool and quiet ground floor room followed by a good breakfast. Gluten-free toast was provided. It's a nice bright pub with a good atmosphere and the landlord works very hard indeed; he deserves success.

United KingdomDon't stay in Room No. 5. It is directly above the generator which is very loud. The room was boiling hot at 11.30 at night and we had to sleep with the window open, so got the full blast of the loud noise. Also it barely fits a double bed. The bathroom can't be aired, as the window doesn't open. Otherwise the bathroom was fine and so was the bed.
The breakfast was good. The room and bathroom were very clean.
