Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomNothing. It was excellent! I didn’t meet any staff during my stay but the communication in advance on how to access the room were clear and useful
Really comfortable bed in well-appointed room with great en-suite. Located practically within spitting distance of the seafront in West Hoe, a quiet, pretty part of Plymouth. On-street parking was available almost opposite the guest house which although chargeable (£10 overnight) was at least convenient. The wonders of the Barbican (most importantly Cap’n Jaspers and The Dolphin!) are only about a 15 minute stroll away

Very comfortable room by the Hoe, ideal location for staying in Plymouth. The host is very friendly and helped us sort out parking for the weekend despite us only staying for one night. Fresh en suite bathroom with soaps, comfy room with plenty of storage, kettle and tea/coffee in the room. On street parking passes available to purchase from the host, £7 for 24h permit which expires at 10am the next day.

United Kingdomeverything was good
I regularly stay in hotels for work and pleasure in UK and Germany. Edgecumbe Guest House in Plymouth has provided the best room I have stayed in for many years... At a very reasonable price. The room is large and modern with the most beautiful bathroom. .. friendly owners have created a system that works. Food is not available, but not a problem, with many many restaurants a few yards away on the sea-front. The bed is comfortable and sunshine flooded into the room through dual aspect windows when we arrived. The thick curtains prevented unwanted light later in the night. It was warm on a very cold day. Easy to find. Responsive owners when questions were asked about parking (We parked opposite on the street.. easy unpacking distance.) We had a wonderful anniversary visit which included a theatre trip, also within walking distance. We hope to return soon. Suitable for leisure or business. Thank you for your excellent hospitality. We enjoyed our stay very much.

United KingdomIt was bit unclear about the breakfast arrangements. One email I had said breakfast was £10 pp, then another said it was £15 pp for a tray to our room. If didn't matter for us as we had other plans, but was just a point to mention.
Warm and comfy. There was lots of tea and coffee which was excellent - no skimping!

United States of AmericaThe location was incredible - steps away from the waterfront and easily walkable to the Hoe, the Barbican, city center, and the university campus. There was clear communication about COVID precautions and expectations. Carla was quick to respond to all queries and was friendly and welcoming! Such a positive experience and I would absolutely stay again.

United States of AmericaThe male host's hateful attitude. He needs to stay away from people. The female seemed nice enough, although I only saw her for about five minutes.
I didn’t mind that this place was designed to be totally self-service, even though the hosts are just upstairs on the 1st floor. I didn’t appreciate the male host opening the door and sarcastically mocking me for taking more than ten seconds to find the lock box. The man should not be around other humans. They will send an email with instructions. Make sure you study them before you arrive to avoid the man mocking you. I happened to have other things to think about before my arrival.
