How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Bathroom a bit pokey and smelled damp, prefer a bath but that's a personal thing. Restaurant service not the fastest. Outside areas to the rear of the property a bit tatty.
Comfy clean room with A/C TV and WIFI, excellent curry in the restaurant.

Unfortunately we were both woken up early hours of Saturday morning by a group of other residents walking up & down the corridor talking, laughing & joking rather loudly. Understand people come & go at different times but they could be respectful of other guests & leave quietly, these guests were definitely not trying to be quiet at all! Maybe signs could be put on the doors & corridors as a reminder to leave quietly? (Have seen this in other hotels)
Stayed for 2 nights as we were at Crufts. Location was good, Asda just across the road was ideal to stock up on snacks to take with us. Not sure heating was working in the room, was cold on arrival but we put the portable heater on & it did warm the room up well. Had tea in the restaurant the first night & it was very good & reasonably priced. My friend didn't find the bed very comfortable but it didn't really bother me, although would have liked some extra pillows in the room

The toilet flush button was broken (although still able to flush the loo) Breakfast was a lot to be desired - very cheap bacon and sausages - and had to ask for scrambled egg to be made as they didn't have any out in the hot plates.
Easy parking, easy access, and ok view from the room. The room was clean and tidy along with the bathroom, which was fully stocked with soap and shampoo. TV was in full working order, and there were plug sockets in close proximity to the bed and the desk.

1. Initial room was previously occupied by a smoker and had to be moved. 2. It took several attempts to borrow and ironing board that should have been already present in the room? 3. Service in the restaurant took almost an hour.
Clean and tidy all the basics in place, Food was good.

I walked into an empty reception and it took 5 mins for someone to appear. Went to my room that stank of smoke and foust. It got worse when I tried to turn the heating on only to find out it was broken. The very helpful reception team arranger for a portable heater so thanks. To finish of the rooms are very poorly finished, dated and appeared very unclean. Sounds like I am on a rant here, but if you want or are happy with an unclean stop over then dig in but to be fair I have stayed in better travel lodges FYI.
