How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We all loved our stay at Mcgraths, it was very modern, comfy and clean. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The beds were very comfy, we had everything in our rooms that we could of possibly needed and more. We went in the bar for 'happy hour' before we went out to the pubs. The drinks were very nice and priced very well. The breakfast was delicious. This will definitely be our go to B&b from now on!

Bathroom is on the small side but no problem for what we needed.
Booked this via booking.com on offer for £99 for two nights including breakfast. Was sceptical from the price that the quality would live up to the pictures and reviews but was surprised to find it absolutely did. Location is great for the North Pier and really close to the station. A 15-20 minute walk to the centre of Blackpool or 2 minute drive. Room was lovely and spotlessly clean. Bed was really comfy. A selection of refreshments and toiletries were provided. Nice touches with fridge and fan in the room too. Breakfast was great and the newly renovated bar area looks amazing. Host was really friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend and will be returning. Ridiculously good value for money.

It would be better if the bed size can be larger, but other than that all great.
The room was clean and cozy, with all the facilities you might need available. I especially like the decoration style. The staff are nice and breakfast was great. The location is good (5min walk to North pier). Overall a very pleasurable stay.

No complaints
The staff were really friendly, really accommodating, they let us check in a little earlier as the room was ready, they provided us with local information, transport info and gave us a laugh too! I love that this hotel is on a street of gay owned hotels as this makes me feel very safe, i was not aware of this before booking.

Bathroom was small but fine for a few days and to be expected. (We are just a chunkier couple 😂)
Very close to the train station and clean, warm and welcoming. Breakfast included was good quality and very filling. You can come and go as you please. Central to everything without having the noise from the busy seafront. We would book here again!

Electric shower kept changing temperature at the last night of our stay. Everything else was perfect. Thank you!
We could drop our bags earlier and go sightseeing before coming back to “officially“ check in. The room very lovely, very well decorated with every facility including small fridge, iron and ironing board. Comfortable and clean. The location was perfect, easy to get everywhere- train station, beach, town centre. We really enjoyed our stay.

Our room was on the top floor so was very warm despite having a fan in the room. Shower cubicle was small but adequate
Pretty much everything, excellent customer service, the modern decor, lovely bar area and breakfast room. The Sences reed diffusers made everywhere smell amazing … hot cooked breakfast was pretty good too .

The shower was too small and the sink was on the bedroom and not in the bathroom.
The hospitality and service which Conor and his team was exceptional they couldn't do enough for me. The room was lovely and cosy. It was everything I wanted from a hotel the breakfast was delicious with a generous helping he even asked people if they wanted any more food. I would definitely recommend to others.
