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.).

CanadaNothing that is the facilities fault. Noisy neighborhood. Small rooms. Lots of stairs, which was fine for us but could be an issue for some people.
Decent place to crash for one night. Very clean, pleasant staff and reasonably updated. Good value for what we needed (no frills, short term). Wifi worked great. Shower was decent.

Really convenient location for city centre and coach station. Immaculate cleanliness, great shower, nice and quiet more separated from the pub itself than expected.

United KingdomCute rooms above a friendly traditional pub. We were only only there for one night to sleep, so facilities were perfect for us. There are plenty of tea supplies, which was perfect for us! Rooms were clean and fresh. And surprisingly not much noise from the street as we expected. We had a nice walk in Digbeth and saw some querky artwork and some lovely little Cafés. Ideal location for 02 Academy, just a few mins in a taxi. We would stay again.

The best Value-For-Money room that we found available. They also wait for us to check in at 23:00 and we really appreciate it!

United KingdomIt has a few building sites around about it with work starting from 7am, and you just can’t get away from the traffic noise from the street.
It’s a nice historic building with a great wee bar full of locals in old community that is being revamped. The barman who welcomed me was friendly and helpful as was the cleaner when I was looking to checkout.

BulgariaThe room is very small, and it could feel uncomfortable to spend time in the room itself, but we needed it just to sleep after a concert so it wasn't an issue.
Nice and cozy room, perfect for just sleeping in and freshening up in. No noise from the road or the pub underneath, bed was comfortable. 5-10 minute walk to the bull ring, with a store right next to the building.

United KingdomBe aware that there is another pub/hotel with a similar name nearby (which apparently is a common confusion). This one was well located for where we were attending but it is closer to an industrial area and a good walk from the train station.
Room is spacious and can easily accommodate 1-3 guests comfortably. Very well received and seen off by the staff. Very clean and modern rooms above a traditional local Pub, it has a separate entrance as well so access is not impacted. Excellent value for the service/amenities.

United KingdomYou can hear the noise a fair bit from the stairs and doors between 12-2am ish from other guests arriving in from town. Wasn't a negative for me though as I actually expected the noise to be worse being in a party location, but something to be aware of. If you're already asleep you probably wouldn't notice anyway :)
Staff were very friendly and welcoming, the room was modern and comfortable and it was great value for money for the location. Everything was explained well by the host, refreshment tray was well stocked and the room was super cosy. Very bright and airy!
