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 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 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 KingdomAs cheap accommodation it was fine but I think not yet moved with the times. Kettles in rooms or at least available on each floor is usual in hostels, so you might expect this in a hotel. It does note no kettles - so this is not a comment on what I expected, more on how basic it is.
Cheap accommodation relatively close to the centre.

United KingdomThe bedding was clean but the bedside table were dirty & the sink smelt slightly. Lots of burn marks on the floor. Didn't complain though as it was a cheap stay & we were only in the room to sleep.
The bed was comfy & the towels were fresh. The price was excellent, staff were friendly & breakfast was available if needed (we didn't eat there). It was easy to find & only a 10 minute walk from the train station. Happy we were able to do a late check in.

United KingdomI requested on booking 3 months before to have rooms close together but when we arrived this didn’t seem to have been passed on. Staff tried to work around this and gave us 2 rooms together but the 3rd room was on a different floor.
Staff were friendly and helpful. It was very cheap and close to The Hippodrome.

United KingdomParking spaces were very limited and half of them are in between metal bollards/posts so if you are in anything bigger than a small car, it can be difficult!
The room was as expected for a budget stay. It was clean and tidy upon arrival. Bed was slightly hard.

United KingdomNot even a cheap kettle in the room. Hot water available downstairs and thankfully I had my flask with me so didn't need to carry it in paper cups in the lift. Frustrating not to be able to get comfortable and make tea in the room.
Cheaper than other hotels but that's because it's a budget hotel. More than a roll and jam for the £8.50 continental breakfast. Budget food with two tinned fruit and two fresh fruit. Only natural yoghurt served in glass bowls to restrict portions. A few cereals available, two pastries, mini cup cakes and bread for toast with jam or marmalade. Vegan and lactose free diets were considered with the milks. Better than expected. Good access to a few local shops and takeaways thank goodness. A tiny Morrisons over the dual carriageway though closed during my stay. Not too far from the Bull Ring shops and New Street Station. Stock up there!

United KingdomShower had a bit of a smell, only noticeable when door was open. Down to the way the hotel was built I think. It was clean enough for a budget hotel. Bed was very hard indeed. Key cards had to be reset everyday, but staff did warn me at check in. Area is OK, but not the poshest.
Staff were lovely, very helpful. Bus stops close-by, but the city centre only a short walk too. Paid £135 for three nights, which is a great bargain, but considering the bed, it's a reasonable price. Towels were decent, and hand/bodywash provided was a positive touch.

United KingdomThe cleanliness was lacking. The included breakfast was fine as we hadn't paid extra, but had I paid for it I would have been highly disappointed with what was on offer. I would also have liked to know in advance that the hotel was a quarter of a mile inside the clean air zone. Also the key cards are highly temperamental and rarely worked.
The staff were lovely and the location was convenient for visiting local attractions.
