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 KingdomWould have liked some healthier choices for breakfast, but realise that fruit and yogurt can work out expensive. Would have liked nicer pillows, but the ones in the room were comfortable.
Historical building, centrally located. Room small but comfortable. As advertised. Breakfast was good. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Lots of local knowledge. Very, very clean.

United KingdomI stayed in room 5 and it was COLD..!! The radiator on the wall wasn`t working, nor was the central heating or towel rail. I mentioned this to the young girl behind the bar before going for dinner and when I got back found an additional electric oil fired radiator outside that I had to leave on all night. The shower and bathroom sink drainage was really poor and I had to stop the shower every couple of minutes so the water didn`t overflow onto the floor. I appreciate the building is old but a plumber would soon sort this out .
Very nice breakfast

United KingdomUnfortunately, the shower was not very good, may be due to low pressure given the age of the inn. It also took at least 5 minutes for hot water to come on. There was also no lightbulb in the lamp next to the bed. Breakfast on Saturday was a let down, but rectified by staff, and Sunday it was much improved Somebody’s underwear had been left in one of the drawers from a previous stay!
Location was great Facilities were clean Pub staff were friendly and helpful A lovely pub with character

United KingdomThe room was small with no cleaning service for the entire length of stay and an incredibly small shower cubicle. The bed was rather uncomfortable with an underlay mattress. Others could be heard from the outside corridor as well as from the room next door due to lack of sound isolation. Loud live music was played in the bar right until about 23:00 on Tuesday evening so it was totally impossible to rest.
Central location, breakfast included in price. Kind service at the breakfast table.

United KingdomLots of stairs but was do-able. Our room was a little small but it was only for 3 nights. We probably could have asked for a different room. It was still fine though & spotless.
The staff were very friendly, polite & very helpful. The food was excellent. It is in a perfect location. We will be going back for definite.

United KingdomCan’t think of anything other than one of the 3 rooms was a little bit small but for the price it was great.
The hotel was quirky and busy. It had the feel of a real pub in the bar. The food was excellent quality and value for money. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and the chef came in early so we could have breakfast before we had to leave. In a brief Simply Perfect.
