Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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 KingdomThe bed was creaking on every turning, which was bad. The water in the bathroom on our floor, 1st floor, was very cold. We had to travel to the next floor to freshen up.
The room was warm and had some furniture. There was a moveable radiator which was working well. The security was good and easy instructions easy to understand. The bathroom upstairs was good and the water was very warm. the kitchen and toilets and bathroom were very clean. This is my second time of using the accommodation. I will recommend it to anyone. They have upped their game.

United KingdomReviews said the bathrooms were clean and I think it was because of the other people staying there but the bathtub was disgustingly dirty and there was hair clogging the drain. There was no way I was going to use that shower which was disappointing because I was looking forward to having one after a long day.
The bed and room were comfortable and clean

United KingdomThere are a lot of stairs if you have mobility problems. The bed central leg broke as I sat on it but we did advised that it would be OK for the night and it held up as we were only there for one night.
Location was brilliant for what we required. The security was brilliant. Information was promptly sent for entry to the property. Room was warm when we arrived. Not bad for the price.

RomaniaWhat could be improved: • Access codes: Every time we had to use three different codes to get to our room: one to unlock the building door, another to access the floor, and a third to retrieve the key, which was secured with a chain inside a key safe. • The bathroom: Instead of a shower cabin, there was a bathtub. Advice for the location: • Always use full white bed linens—they give a stronger impression of cleanliness than any other color. Guests will feel confident and assured that the sheets they’re sleeping in are clean.
What I liked: • The location: Situated 40 minutes from the city center, the location feels extremely safe. We went out at night after 11:00 PM–12:00 AM and felt completely secure. • The price: Compared to other locations in London, the price is very fair for what you get. • Cleanliness: The room was very clean and well-maintained. • Amenities nearby: There’s a 24/7 shop directly across from the accommodation, along with three fast-food options. • Convenience: A bus stop is right outside the property. For example, we needed to get to Gatwick Airport and took bus 380 to the city center.

SpainThe bed was not comfortable, the pillows were firm and too high, I'd suggest the pillows get replaced, it would've made it almost a perfect stay. The entrance to the place was full of litter. You can hear other guests during the night
Good location to the colour Factory for a short one night stay to go to a concert. Well communicated with transport. Shops around. Bathroom and rooms were clean. Heating was working and room was warm, fan also available. It worked for us for what we needed it for.

Czech RepublicThe bathroom on the 2nd floor is newly renovated and the on on the 1st floor is quite beat up - just be aware. The walls are not as thick as you would wish for. You can hear literally everything.
The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, the bathroom was being cleaned every day. The bus stops are right around the corners! And the overground station is close, too!

United KingdomThe room keys are kept in a key safe mounted to the door, I'm not sure how often the codes are changed and it felt a little uncomfortable at first. We found that you can extend the chain with the key on into the room and still keep the doors locked, which made it feel far more secure.
The price and location of Rahal Hackney is perfect if you're going to the Olympic Park. It's literally a 15-minute walk and you're right there. We went for one night as somewhere to crash after an event at the stadium and it couldn't have been better located and priced. Very reasonable for the area. The place was clean, quiet (apart from the road outside but the windows do a good job of keeping that out). The rooms felt secure and the showers worked lovely in the morning. There are plenty of cameras on the main corridors and entrance ways too, which does make it all feel far safer. The exterior door is code protected too. There's a Papa John's opposite, which is open late, so no need to go scouting about for post-event food.

United KingdomQuite noisy through the night, lots of traffic noise
For a comfortable, affordable stay in london this place is just right. Close to Rail links, good places to eat and drink close by. It's exactly as described, no frills room. If you expect little shampoo bottles and chocolate on pillows you're going to be upset. If you just want a cosy space to rest after a day exploring the city then you'll be ok.
