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 KingdomNothing detrimental to say, it is as described, no frills, but more than adequate for a night if working or passing through the area
This a straight forward guest house, there is no breakfast and the other customers seemed to be tradesmen. The room was a nice size and very clean, its in Filton, so very easy and quick access to the motorway network. There is also onsite parking. There is is not a lot in the immediate area, no pubs or restaurants from what I could see, however just a few minutes walk one way you have a Tesco Express, a few minutes the other way is a pizza shop, a chippy and an Indian.

Hong KongSome easy things could be done to improve the bedroom, such as a few hooks or clothes rail. The bathroom was in need of a bit of attention, but all in all, pretty much what I expected for the price.
The room was quiet, despite being located on a fairly main road. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of tea and coffee supplies!

Perfect location on Gloucester Road and easy to get bus to centre - right outside the Watershed. Very quiet room with comfy bed and great shower. All the usual facilities such as tea and coffee which Miguel replenished. Slightly old fashioned furnishings but this didn't affect our stay in the least apart from the smart TV!! 😊 Parking was useful and it was a 5 minute walk to takeaways and shops. Added bonus of a dining area with knives and forks etc. Miguel was helpful and friendly and we would definitely recommend the Elms for a weekend away in Brizzle 👍😊

Miguel was very welcoming and helpful. Everything was explained well and he was very respectful. I would recommend The Elms to anyone staying in Bristol.

United KingdomHot water took 5 mins Reason given absence of guests on weekend so little demand and throughput of waterflow resulting in lot of dormant cold water in system. Pump needed. Only single central ceiling plain bulb on cord. Bedroom walls too simply plain paint decorated. Needed minimal wall decoration - prints, photos, etc at minimal cost. Thats all however
