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 KingdomThere is a TV, but the signal is poor across most channels, it doesn't matter though because there's something much better to watch - the view outside the large glass entrance doors to the pod. We had a strong 5G signal on the O2 network whilst here, so able to stream the Six Nations with no problem when we arrived Friday night and the TV was patchy. The only real negative thing I have to say about the place is that the toilet leaks from around the base. Would be nicer to save the impromptu paddle for the beach! A bit of a chore to keep mopping up, but it wasn't overly excessive, and worth putting up with because of the other positive aspects of the pod. Hopefully this will be rectified soon for future visitors.
Brilliant quiet location, good amount of privacy despite its location backing on to a residential street. No noise even from the sea, with windows open. Fairly well equipped, very cosy. The view is what makes this place special though. Gulls, Oystercatchers, and Little Egret frequent the beach below. Pod is well insulated with good doors and windows. Lovely decking and collapsible furniture available to sit out on it should the weather allow. Can't recommend this place highly enough, just beautiful. Thank you for a lovely stay.

United KingdomThere were a few niggles which at £120 per night and a special birthday present I felt were not so good. The toaster wasnt working so no toast. The loo had a leak at the base which had to be mopped up frequently which was rather unpleasant. I think the bathroom light is also on its way out as there was a great deal of flickering.
The location and views were amazing and the pod was very snug especially on the coldest nights of the year!
