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 KingdomThe bedroom was snug but comfortable.
A real gem of a property this is a very quaint building. The room we stayed in was well appointed with a large en-suite bathroom. The room was very comfortable and was well equipped with tea and coffee making with a good selection of drinks, there was also a well stocked mini bar. The bar area is small and quirky and the staff are very welcoming. Breakfast was excellent with lovely fresh fruit salad and a good English breakfast. We ate in the dining room one evening and the food was exceptional and very reasonably priced. I had the beer battered hake and it was the best fish I had during the stay.

New ZealandI couldn't complain about anything.
The home cooked breakfast was excellent - they went out of their way to serve lovely honest food and they couldn't of been more helpful to accomodate your needs. It was a very characterful Inn close to all the amenities and restaurants of Dartmouth.

AustraliaThere wasn't anything that we didn't like
We thoroughly loved our 3 nights stay at the Ship in Dock Inn. Our room although small was very comfortable. There was a fully stocked bar fridge, tea and coffee making facilities. Great shower and the bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast had a number of choices. We loved the fresh fruit and yoghurt to start with. We had a great dinner in the restaurant also which was very tasty. I particularly loved the fish and chips! My husband had the chicken tikka and thoroughly enjoyed it. Jude, Peter and the team were very friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to make our stay a great one. We thoroughly recommend this establishment! Just a few minutes walk into the heart of Dartmouth.

United KingdomThe rooms are above a lovely character pub but it didn't stay open for full normal hours. Would have been nice to relax there a bit longer after a day out. Not a major issue though, and didn't taint the stay.
Great location, staff and breakfast. Comfortable room with great view. parking nearby was pretty good, considering how busy Dartmouth can be.

United KingdomParking was a bit of a mission. No longer supplying a free parking pass due to cost. Totally understandable. If you cannot park in the main public car park then you have to move your car every 2 hours up to 6pm. This didn't spoil our visit.
Everything, Mel our breakfast lady was exceptional. Always smiling and nothing was too much trouble. Their sign was absolutely true 'A little pub with a big welcome'.

United KingdomWe stayed for two days and loved the cozy interior design, cleanliness, and spaciousness of the room. The facilities were complete, including a hairdryer, coffee make, refrigerator, bath... The host was incredibly helpful, and the downstairs bar offered a great selection of drinks. The breakfast was excellent, and the location was convenient with many nearby shops and a beautiful harbor view. It was great value for money, and we would definitely recommend this accommodation to friends. Overall, it was an impeccable stay.

The Ship in Dock Inn is an absolute gem, Jude and the team do everything they can to ensure your stay is memorable, the inn is quirky & full of character, with lots of characters, it’s decorated to a high standard in a maritime theme, spotlessly clean, wonderful views of the river, can’t imagine there’s a better breakfast in Dartmouth. Corporate its not, friendly & welcoming it most certainly is!!
