Ratings Guide

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
