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.).

The fact that I could take my dog. In the room there was a water bowl and towel especially for my dog. Eddy the owner was a wonderful man, extremely helpful including carrying my suitcase up two flights of stairs. I will definitely stay there again. Thank you Ed for all your kindness.

United StatesNothing. It exceeded my expectations.
The location was excellent. It was close to the pier and restaurants. I loved having the window open at night and hearing the waves. The room was on the small side as to be expected in this type of hotel but you really can't ask for a better place to stay. It was comfy and clean. Eddy was a great host. I highly recommend and will stay again should I be in the area.

I was running late for a regular check-in. Booking.com cancelled my reservation already but a telephone call at night to the hotel made the impossible possible. Excellent Service.

United KingdomNothing really. We did have difficulty parking on Saturday night and ended up a 20-minute walk away but that's to be expected in the summer.
We liked everything. This is a truly dog friendly establishment, very important to us. We loved our room overlooking the sea and prom. It was lovely to hear the sea crashing against the shore as we woke up. The owner was very friendly and helpful. We loved his dog, Boris!

United KingdomNothing really.
A wanted a low budget clean seaview room just for the very basic: sleeping take a shower change my clothes keeping my stuff and spending as much time as I can outside. It was perfect for that. The key card activated the electricity in my room, I like it. From the second floor single room, the seaview, was excellent. Great location.

United KingdomVery happy in all regards.
Location is excellent being on the seafront and having a nice view of the pier not far away. We did not partake of breakfast but I'm sure it would have been very good indeed! The rooms and hallways had some nice, and well chosen pieces of furniture and art work which gave each room a personal touch. Parking is available with vouchers to use in most pay and display bays in the seafront area.

United KingdomParking was a little awkward on the front as it gets extremely busy. This is however no reflection on the hotel, as you are given a parking permit for the length of your stay when you find a spot.
The owner of this beautiful place was an absolute pleasure to meet and he couldn't do enough to make our stay more comfortable. We chose this place as fellow dog lovers and we were not disappointed. He was helpful, informative, friendly and welcoming. The room was beautiful, more than ample for what we needed, fresh sheets/ towels daily and that view....stunning! The location couldn't be better, right on the sea front next to the Pier. Easy access into the town, local road train runs right past that allows you to' hop on, hop off' for the day which travels up and down Eastborne front. Thankyou for a wonderful stay, we cannot wait to return.
