Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomWe had 2 single beds pushed together. The mattress I was on was uncomfortable and needed replacing. After one night I spoke to Reception and they sent someone to turn the mattress. This was better although it still needed changing!
We loved the location. Staff were very friendly. We ate in the restaurant for breakfast which was lovely and evening meal. Food was lovely!

United KingdomGround floor corridor has very unpleasant smell. Unfortunately Restaurant was very disappointing, below average.
As we traveled with a pet we were happy to find place its pet friendly. Very good location in not too bussy. Room we got was in the ground floor so dog could go outside, however I highly recoment to rip off the carpets and replace to vinyl or hard floor, as carpets were dirty, covered in dogs hair and had lods of marks from other dog accidends. Beding & towels were very clean.

CanadaThe only thing that might be a negative would be lack of privacy as the noise from the hallway travelled into your room. People’s voices felt like they talking right next to you.
The location was excellent, away from the main streets and very quiet. Loads of places to walk and sight see. Pub staff and front desk staff were exceptional.

United KingdomOur standard double room was on -2 floor, wifi was poor. Tv was part of the room, but it was placed on the table next to the bed, instead of opposite to the bed. Therefore if you want to watch it, need to turn your head cross the room. Could have been on the opposite wall, or so. Cleaniness can get better in corners and behind the furnitures. (Fallen Nescaffee sache with spiderweb under the table.) Ome side of the double bed had no bedside table, or any type of furniture to leave your personal belongings for the night. I really missed it Over all the room, bathroom and bed was clean. We would likely visit again, would choose a different room, if we can.
We really liked the location, and the breakfast options.

United KingdomThe cleanliness of the corridor outside my room wasn't brilliant, it didn't look like it was hoovered during my stay (dust along the edges). It would have been useful to have a menu in my room for reference, but there wasn't one. With the hotel being an old building, there was constant creaking floors, noisy plumbing, voices heard from the corridor/other rooms and doors opening/closing. If you are a light sleeper, this could be problematic.
The matress was exceptional, honestly one of the most comfortable beds I have slept in. The hotel itself was well kept, with a good standard of decor throughout. Bar and restaurant both well kept. I loved the availability of single rooms at brilliant prices, great value for money. Plenty of parking near property. Great access to the South West Coast Path and an easy walk to the harbour (although, a steep hill).
