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 KingdomIt is a noisy road and the windows don't make much difference when you close them. They would benefit from replacement with triple glazing to keep the noise down. However, there were ear plugs provided which is a kind thought.
Very clean with all facilities needed. Beds were really comfortable.

United KingdomSlightly tricky to drive in & out off the High Street, given a heavy gate secures the property. However, the heavy gate is also a strength if you are after secure parking.
Great communication in advance of our stay. Very friendly and helpful reception. Strong gate secures a small parking area (£10 charge applies). Nice area with good public transport links - close to the Northern line tube and buses. It suited us well for a gig at the O2 in Brixton.

United KingdomThe flooring was squeaky, which woke me up in the middle of the night when guests from upstairs arrived. However, this issue is understandable as it is an old building, and there is nothing you can do about it.
The property itself was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay.

It was a really clean hotel and the room was spotless. The towels and bed linen were clean as well as the whole apartment. The kitchen had all of the amenities of a home.

IrelandIt was an old building, so there where a lot of creeks, sounds from other rooms. Understandable for age of the property but a bit alarming for a solo female traveller. Also would of been helpful to have some information on the closest taxi service. Not been from London I had no app to order an Uber I got some numbers from a lady at the reception but they were not helpful. If there was a local firm the hotel could have an account or agreement with that would have been very helpful.
Brillant Location, 1min walk to tube. Room was spotless, excellent services ie, iorn and ironing board, fridge, kettle, tea, coffee ect even shower gel!!!

The location is perfect. Less than a few minutes walk from train station and supermarkets and across the street from burger King. Staff were nice, allowed me to check in early. Contact less check in and check out. Area was quiet to me but they provided earbuds, as it's along a busy street. Lovely yard and garden with benches to relax. I would definitely stay again
