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 KingdomThe pub and its floor and furnitures were not clean. Surprisingly always it had a crowd likely due to affordability and being a common man pub.
Near to bus stop . Very good people and hospitality . Kind of busy old style pub with rooms upstairs. Room and bed was clean . People are really nice and welcoming. Hot Breakfast was good. Cost is cheaper.

United KingdomSo.. when first arriving i was a bit worried as the area looked a bit dodgy and the pub looked a bit like a local boozer (which is it). It just looked like somewhere I wouldn’t choose to go basically. However we parked up about 2 o’clock and there was quite a bit of parking for free which was good. We had to go into the pub to check in and a local was nice and directed us to the bar for check in. Nice and quick check in and rooms were actually ok. Surface level clean, defo need needed a deep scrub in corners of floor and shower etc but surface clean like sheets towels sink all clean at first glance. Just don’t look closer 😂 Was it great no, but it was ok and i did feel Safe at night once in my room. For the price and location I would use again if going to a gig at o2 institute.
The property was cheap and in a location close to the o2 institute, we could get a bus right outside the hotel into centre and also after the institute also a bus right outside back to hotel so saved a lot on taxis and also time as bus was every 7 mins!!!! Amazing Free car parking a plus Staff were friendly

United KingdomThe pub was a dive, full of nutters from all walks of life. Super friendly though. The porter let someone into the room near mine at some ungodly hour at night and spoke in the loudest voice, he needs training on night time voices! Loads of fixtures and fittings in the room were broken or wonky, the window didn't shut properly and felt like it might fall off its hinges. The toilet seat shifted around as you sat on it. Bin lid was missing, mirror light didn't work etc.
Very cheap and cheerful accommodation. No frills, but smelt clean in the room. Huge king size bed. Decent shower. Quiet outside, couldn't hear the traffic etc. Bar was full of a mixed crowd, could see it being intimidating for a lone female traveller. Fine for short trips or business, not exactly a holiday location. Was able to park my luton right outside on the street, for 'normal' vehicles they have there own car park.

United KingdomThe overall venue was comfortable however would benefit from Somme TLC and a refresh.
The breakfast was lovely and served by a lovely lady who was very helpful and welcoming. I dealt with a staff member the night before who I believe was called Jo. She was lovely and I ended up staying in the bar all night.

United KingdomOutside the entrance was a lot of broken bottles/glass and the entrance didn't give clear directions to get to Reception. Looked a bit shabby which was a shame because the room was lovely = a lick of paint and clean carpet would do wonders. No dropped curb into the car park
Simple single room with ensuite which was great for what I needed. Bed was comfortable. Shower was amazing - hot and powerful. Easy access to local retail park and fabulous restaurants for evening dinner - I walked up to the high street alone and had a wonderful Persian meal
