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 KingdomThe drawer under the tea/coffee maker was full of crumbs. No teaspoon! Sharing bathroom facilities not ideal as it depends upon other guests to be considerate to others, and not all were. The fully self-service breakfast was chaos and consisted mainly of carbohydrates - factory rolls probably full of preservatives - and no meat or egg selection.
The receptionist, Brendan I think his name was, couldn't have been more helpful. He is an asset to the hotel. The bedding was clean and comfortable.

Location is excellent. I stayed there twice first with my son had to share a bathroom but it was very last minute so that was OK. Second stay by myself with my own bathroom. Only problem on Saturday night the club across the street was playing music extremely loud. Couldn't sleep. I would stay at the Waverly again.

United KingdomFor the price I could not seriously demand more than I got !! In the Bermuda Triangle of Tourist Rip offs that is Inverness / Ullapool and Skye this place is a bargain !!
OK...This is not Claridges or The Balmoral . There are no chocolates.on the pillow or Organic hand crafted toiletries BUT I got a spotless clean room in the centre of Inverness for around £60....the guy on reception was polite and had GSOH . I've stayed here before and had some " eventful " nights but this time was peaceful and quiet. !! My advice ? Go For it !!

BelgiumI've stayed in rooms with no wardrobes before - Ibis and the like - but never a room without as much as a single perfunctory hook! Literally nowhere to put your clothes and no stand or raised surface of any kind to put your case on. Bathroom mirror placed so far down that you can't shave there, as you have to stoop down and block the light above with your own shadow. Unpleasant smell when I opened the window. Main bugbear the appalling noise from the pub across the street. Astonishing that local residents put up with it!
Handy location for the station and the centre. The staff were friendly for the brief time they were there. CCTV is all very well, but no substitute for having someone on site, particularly at night, given that any rowdy inebriated punter from the noisy all-hours pub across the road could simply breeze in any time they liked through the unlocked door. The breakfast was OK, though had to bolt it down the second day, as I didn't realise it finished earlier on working days.

United KingdomWe had a twin room that was very small, hardly room for two people with cases to move, wouldn’t like to have stayed more than one night, would have made a fine single room. The shower didn’t drain and was filling with water so showering had to be aborted. My hand towel had a dirty mark on it so I didn’t use it.
It was near the train station and we had an early train. Although breakfast only started at 7:30 it was laid out early and we were able to have something which we did appreciate. Bed was comfortable.

As I was leaving the elderly manager that was passing by visiting was speaking loudly with the with no privacy about the staff and paid breaks for the staff! 🤷🏼 He then drove off! Very unprofessional and extremely irritating experience!
