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 KingdomBeing a modern construction with hard finishings, the noise levels were a little higher than I would have liked - minor complaint. Although I was aware that it was normally student accomodation, I was surprised that there was absolutely no cutlery or cups (having flown there, I could not take my own). Perhaps a basic set for rental could be considered.
The property provided good, basic accomodation with no frills. Due to the nature of the rental, there was minimal contact with staff but those spoken to seemed pleasant.

United KingdomThe bed was a little uncomfortable, but fine for two nights it was good, no negativity at all really.
The room was spacious, with a nice bathroom and the communal kitchen was great, we traveled with friends, so the four of us meet in the kitchen. The rooms were very clean.

United KingdomThis is student accommodation, so a small single room with a 3 foot bed, a small fridge, shower and toilet. There is a shared kitchen with fridge-freezers, oven and hob, and a microwave, but no cutlery or crockery. So bring your own cup, bowl, spoon etc. There is a shop at a garage about 10 minutes walk away. There are very few shops or pubs/cafes/restaurants close by. A taxi into the city centre cost £10-14. There is reasonable free wifi and the staff at reception are very helpful. There is parking on site which costs £2 for 24 hours or £8 for a week.

United KingdomAlthough we knew it was halls of residence and a plastic cup was provided - nothing else was there except a kettle (no cups / spoons etc I contacted the site ahead of visit to enquire about bedding and towels but did t think to ask about cups etc - my fault didn’t detract from the stay
Self contained room with en-suite bathroom On arrival it was spotless and well presented Well organised in terms of check on very cheap parking for a city centre and staff were amazing with knowledge of getting to town and around as well as local food / drink points - campus was well lit at night and although stairs were slippy when wet the handrails were good support - building work did not disturb until a reasonable time the following day and all staff were courteous

PolandThe bed was quite uncomfortable. There were absolutely no kitchen utensils or cutlery or even a sponge to wash your own plate. If you open a place for tourists in the summer you shouldn't expect them to bring everything in their luggage.
Good location, the room was clean and there was enough space. The staff was helpful.

United KingdomFilthy dirty, very poor quality furniture and everything was sticky. Bathroom ceiling walls and shower platform edges were thick with black mould and slimy fresh pink mould growing above shower cubicle. Could not sit down on toilet and close the bathroom door due to narrowness of room and proximity of toilet to door . Bed was very uncomfortable with springs prominent . Sheets appeared clean and ironed but there were still hairs in the bed. Fridge buzzhummed far too loudly. Room was damp and stank of damp and mould . One of our rooms also stank of marijuana it was really unpleasant but we could not open the window as it was at ground floor level with no safety catches. We did not stay the mandatory two nights but left as early as we could in the morning.twenty minutes drive to principality stadium.
Staff tried to be pleasant and the parking was cheap
