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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomOnly natural light was from the bathroom window. Whilst frosted, I'm not sure one couldn't be seen from the street through said glass. There was a light outside the bathroom window which shone into the room even with the door pushed to. Bed was a bit soft for my liking but that's very much personal preference. There were two pillows; it was a small double for one person; it was more than adequate. No flannel/sponge provided but that was my fault for forgetting. There was an handtowel and a bath towel.
Easy check-in (only saw staff when leaving). Very clean. Surprisingly spacious for what was billed as a single room. Decent sized bathroom. Only stayed overnight so can't really say more.

AustraliaGoogle maps has another Croft Hotel on the opposite corner, confusingly. Make sure to go to the pub one.
I was only there from 9pm til 7am, so not much to say. It was clean and comfy.

The rooms are lovely and clean, well furnished and private. The staff are friendly hard working people who take their responsibilities very seriously. I felt comfortable and looked after by the staff who showed respect and consideration for me when I stayed there while visiting the local area. It's good to know that a facility like this exists and it is operated to a high standard.

United KingdomWe have never stayed somewhere with no "meet & greet" before, notwithstanding there is a pub downstairs, if anything is required. However, the system worked well, and it was an enjoyable stay.
Prior to arrival, we were given an access code for the door, which worked fine. Room was clean and a good space, with a good black-out blind. The smart tv could be tuned into apps such as Amazon and Netflix. The hotel is located in not the best part of town, but is nevertheless handy for the city centre, no issues. Did not have breakfast there, as there is a Wetherspoons on the way into town! The only member of staff we met throughout our overnight stay was a lady who was cleaning the rooms as we left. She was friendly and approachable. Nice stay.

United KingdomNothing at all. There wasn't a table or desk which didn't bother me, but might if working.
Great find! Newly refurbished in a simple, stylish way but not bland like the hotel chains. Warm and comfortable. Staff exceptionally helpful. Good, quiet location with free road parking. About 30 minute walk from city centre, but only 5 minutes from City Road shops and restaurants. Comfy bed, great shower. Spotlessly clean. Clothes hanging rack thingys very clever! Very generous supply of tea, coffee etc.

TurkeyThe staircases are very narrow and rather steep - be careful. In the winter the floor in the room can get a little cold - i wish i had brought slippers. None of these things are a problem really.
I liked the hotel a lot - it is exactly my favourite type of hotels, with very basic design, all in black and white with no decorations, when there are all types of basic facilities available and working well, everything is very clean and comfortable. The staff is very helpful. There is a kettle in the room as well as tea, coffee, sugar, milk (real, not creamer) and even little packs of oatmeal. The wifi worked just fine, no issues. There is a pub right under the hotel (initially the crofts is a pub i think), but it was not noisy in the room even when it was noisy in the pub. and truly, if i did indeed get the single room i requested, i can say it is very spacious (i will attach photos). The room is very warm too, the heating worked just fine.
