When reviewing travel and food establishments, I have a ratings system in place to fairly review each place – and to ensure that each establishment is rated fairly against similar establishments.
My star ratings are given based on several criteria:
- Quality
- Environment/Ambience (where appropriate)
- Comfort – seating/bedding (where appropriate)
- Variety (where appropriate)
- Value for money
- Friendly/Welcoming
