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.).

IrelandNo real reception, very hard to find staff to talk with first thing in morning and late at night, not given a proper tour of the facilities (had 2 shower rooms but only 1 worked and didn't know about the 2nd shower until the 3rd morning, no signage), room was very low down at half way point so not feasible for someone with back problems, was given a code to enter the building but on the 2nd night it was changed and no one told me so I was locked out at 11pm for half an hour until another guest came out and gave me the code, contacted property twice through booking.com and didn't get a response either time.
Good location, right beside shopping area and bus station. Cheap and decent facilities for the price and the need for only looking for somewhere to sleep especially when gone first thing in the morning and returning last thing at night. Not the most cleanliest place you will ever stay.

The property was situated near town centre also near bus station which was very handy for me. The room had everything I needed.

United KingdomThe shower temperature changed a bit, presumably due to demand by others, but this wasn't a major issue. The main issue we encountered was that there was no separate lounging or gathering area that could be accessed when the pub wasn't open. As a group of friends who aren't in their university years anymore, none of us wants to gather in someone's bedroom - there also wasn't sufficient seating or room to attempt this. The place works best as a room-only expectation - and most of the time we were sleeping or out so it worked, but I'd hesitate to stay here for a longer or bigger gathering in the area.
Location was great and within walking distance to the centre - ideal for New Years Eve, particularly given the rain. The host was very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable. Access was easy and 24hrs.

United KingdomNothing really, other than the Bar wasn’t open on arrival.
Visited as a new city for our Jolly Boys Christmas outing and The Old Post Office was perfect for us. Clean, Comfortable and ideal location for the Town Centre. Owners very helpful. Whilst the Car Park was full we got to park opposite without any charges, plus official Car Park over the road if needed. Helped us with an earlier check-in than normal.

United KingdomNot many en suite rooms and not many shared bathrooms for the total number of rooms, but the wash basin in my room was adequate for a one night stay. A beside table and light would have been useful. With a bit of hard work and investment this place could be a little goldmine. (Some real ale in the bar would have encouraged me to drink there).
Excellent location very close to bus station and in walking distance of train station, the Minster, Piece Hall, museums and the town centre. It's a quirky old building with a real rabbit warren of corridors leading to the rooms. Despite my room being very basic it was clean and comfortable and I slept very well.
