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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 StatesThe only negative to this hotel is that we had to park about a block away in public parking, however we have found that to be the case at most of the hotels we have booked.
The staff was extremely helpful, our room and bed were spacious and comfortable. There was a tub in the bathroom that my wife loved.

Spacious room that was very comfortable and fresh. Great location close to the action, yet room was quiet and peaceful. Staff at reception and in hotel downstairs were very friendly.

Lovely central townhouse hotel. Staff on reception on check-in were so nice and the reception itself is very nicely decorated. Double room was comfy and clean. Food and bar were lovely. Location couldn't be better and few mins walk from the train/bus station. Going to come back in August!

United StatesThere was no accommodation to unpack. Had to live out of our suitcases for four days, which took up a lot of spaces since we both had large bags. Also, wish I had been told about the car rally. It was really noisy well into the early morning hours. Might have adjusted our travel dates.
Location in town was excellent, close to everything, including the train station, church, shops and restaurants.

Everything was great - room, staff, food, location were perfect for our needs. Didn't do vegetarian/vegan sausages or bacon but did get in plant milk for me and I left the breakfast room every day feeling well fed! The Murphy's staff were so helpful and friendly.

Excellent location in a lively part of town - and great bar and restaurant. What was a nice surprise was the quality of the room. They were good sized, very comfy, and quiet despite being part of such a fun lively place. Highly recommended!

United StatesHotel never responded to an emailed inquiry regarding care parking. The room's on-hand towel supply was meager. Too few electrical outlets in the room.
Central location close to a car park, shopping, and dining. We had a fantastic diner at the hotel's restaurant and a decent breakfast. The room was quiet. All of the staff was friendly and helpful.
