Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The bathroom facility is a bit old. It would feel better if it would be renovated.
The service staff are very friendly and dedicated. The sheets, quilts and towels are all clean. The location is very quiet at night. It is close to the supermarket and not far from the airport and scenic spots.

Some Noisy Guests, due to this being old student accommodation all the doors are fire doors which is a good thing but a lot of the guests who were in our block kept coming in and out and slamming the doors or standing out side in the parking area talking very loudly under guests windows. so struggled to settle the first night and sleep, second night wasnt as bad dont know if some left or were out for the night unsure. but to be honest everything else was fine! oh and was gutted i didnt get a waterfront view !! lol!! :(
John who welcomed us and gave us our keys was lovely and very friendly!! I was very anxious about a few things and he put my mind at ease! , Thank you!! Location was ideal for what we needed it for loads of stuff was near by too! such as Morrison's, Lidl, Hungry horse (Fab food lovely staff) and 2 small retail parks! 1 was walking distance, one was a bit further out but still very local!, leisure center was also walking distance too!, nice waterfront location (cold but lovely), boat dock area too and lovely walking routes also local to bus routes and train station! <3 1 MAIN thing I was really happy to hear was it was a very secure place, locked rooms, password doors & CCTV for it being in such an open location that made me feel safer, also being super close to the police station! (be warned if your here at weekends it can be busy! lol! with sirens!) but just make sure you shut the door into the blocks firmly! this would be the main door i would only be firm with! as sometimes other guests forgot to do this and it would be left open.

There were a few dodgy-looking characters hanging around outside when we arrived, and a bit of noise overnight from voices, and from doors opening and closing, although nothing too bad. The only real criticism I'd have is that the shower was stone cold: I don't know if it would eventually have heated up, but we were short of time in the morning so after running it for a good few minutes I gave up.
The bedroom was a decent size, and the fact that it was right at the end of the corridor probably helped avoid any major noise issues. The bed was comfortable, and the view from the room, over the water, was pleasant. Having the use of the kitchen was helpful. The janitor guy who let us in was very pleasant and helpful.

Shower was a bit temperamental regarding setting the temperature and turning it on and off, but it’s workable with a bit of patience. The hot tap was running extremely hot, I did report this as you couldn’t wash under it without filling the basin with cold water as well.
Ideally situated for the riverside, railway station and shops including two large supermarkets. Very comfortable bed, room nice and warm with heater controlled by the occupants. Good facilities in the room including kettle, so you don’t need to use the communal kitchen (one on each floor), but it’s there if you want it. Fantastic views from the rooms that face the “waterfront”. Pleasant area to walk around, feels very safe. Office staff for the block very helpful and welcoming.

It's a large complex and double locking doors gave the impression it could be unsafe. That seems a contradiction that having locks or needing locks made it seem unsafe,but it wasn't a problem.
The view was fantastic and the cooking and dining space was more than I expected. Good parking and very central for the train and supermarket.
