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 Arab EmiratesDurian weekends you can hear the music from the bar downstairs but it's not that much noisy. It's in an acceptable levels. The shared WC is a bit annoying but you can manage
Staff are friendly, specially Steve i recommend this stay for short business work in the city. Walking distance to line 321 which can serve all the routes from Watford to Luton. Parking also available at the property

HungaryIt was said that the kitchen closes at 9:45 pm, however, on Sunday at 8:55 it was already closed, so we could not have dinner. The walls are a bit thin.
The room was very cosy, with good beds and warm blankets, and big bathroom. It is good that there is a private door, so we can leave and arrive during the day, whenever we want. It was kind to have a kettle and some coffee and tea in the room. The staff was flexible regarding the late arrival.

a cheap hotel sited near the Watford railway station, they have a typical restaurant/pub on the bottom. It is perfect for someone would like taste English food and breakfast, for someone that prefer Italian food they could walk until the near city centre.

United KingdomThe building was very stuffy no Aircon. Being one of the hottest weeks I found it very difficult to sleep and uncomfortable.
Staff were very pleasant and efficient . The southern crown was in situ to where I needed to be the following day. The location was good and I felt it had value for money. The southern crown offered breakfast unfortunately I had to leave early in the morning but I would’ve liked to stopped to have it.

United KingdomI would have liked a bit more pressure in the shower but that's just nit-picking. The shower did the job.
Highly recommended if you're on a budget and just need a place to put your head down for the night. If you're visiting for the Harry Potter Studio Tour then you're very well placed for this as the shuttle service for the tour starts 5 - 8 minutes down the road from here (as you come out of Watford Junction Station) You get what you see in the pictures pretty much. The rooms are small but very clean and well equipped for what it is. Had 0 noise disturbance and it was a very comfortable night. It's not a full on hotel - just a place to put your head down at night and they do this very well! I'd definitely stay here again if I'm in the area.

United KingdomMy only complaint was the food in the restaurant of the hotel which isn't part of the room. It was crispy, stale and didn't taste okay.
The hotel was clean, comfortable and spacious. Kettle is provided. The best part was that it was close to the train station, where the Harry potter bus also departs from.
