Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

SwitzerlandThe dormitory rooms are not soundproof so I could hear the guests next door who were not the most considerate people and played music and videos loudly at night. It would also be better if the doors had locks on them but all the guests were really respectful of the space and people who didn't stay in my room didn't just barge in. It would be great if you could replace the curtains in the compartmented dorm rooms with solid lockable doors as well since it is a mixed gender dormitory. It would also be better if there were bedside power sockets for each bed because everyone had to go to this one corner right next to my bed where all the sockets were at to charge their stuff.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, check-in and check-out went really smoothly and I had dinner at the hotel's restaurant the day I arrived. The lady who showed me to my table (which had an amazing view of the mountains) was SOOOOO nice and helpful, she answered all my questions really well and gave some tips on eating their really good cheese fondue, which came with potatoes, bread, pickles and pickled onions. Throughout my meal, she also checked in on me occasionally to make sure I was doing okay and was so smiley throughout. The next day was Saturday and they offered free breakfast, which included if I'm not wrong: Dunkelbrot and white bread loaves, butter, blueberry and raspberry jams, chocolate spread, hard boiled eggs, fruit, coffee, hams, cheeses, juices, milk, yogurt, cornflakes, granola, and a large variety of tea! They also had a toaster so the bread was amazing after toasting it. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, especially the bread and cheeses! The restaurant is really clean and cozy overall and I really loved my experience here overall. Toilets and showers were also SUPER clean and I was pleasantly surprised at how modern and sleek the shower rooms were to be honest. They provided a top-to-toe soap which I did not use but it is nice to have :)

Italyeverything was good in my opinion, have nothing to complain for what I paid and what I got
great value for the room and location, bus stop just in front. Had a tiny room with 2 beds just for myself which was great, with an unique view of the hills. Breakfast was good too and staff was kind answering questions. Also I had twice a good dinner in the place, It was really beyond my expectations

South AfricaYou can hear loud neighbours quite clearly, especially ones above you.
Great location, with stunning views of the surrounding mountains from your window. The property is located outside the center of the town, so it is more peaceful and quiet. We loved the simplistic, cabin feel of the room. The staff were helpful and friendly. Decent breakfast buffet included.
