How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

It was unusual that there were no staff on site during my stay. I haven't experienced that before.
Am unable to rate the staff as I didn't meet any. I did receive communications from them through the Booking.Com App though and that was fine. They were also kind enough to book a table for dinner for me at a local auberge in town. Gated (key code entry / exit) car park was good. I left before breakfast in the morning as wanted to get an early start.

no interference with any humans at all, that's strange
only slept there, did not consume any food. the parking was opposite the hotel, free and quiet, great. I didn't want to book in town as I wanted to avoid traffic, all this was accomplished.

On arrival we could not get in and didn't know we needed a code to the front door and had to make a phone call. The room was smaller than we are used too and the bathroom very small but adequate for the few nights we were there. No tea/coffee making facility in the room.
The hotel was very well located for our visit to Le Mans. The small village centre is lovely for a drink and something to eat at Cafe Marie, although it did shut early which was a little disappointing, considering it's the only bar in the town. The room was very clean and comfortable.

We checked in on a Sunday. During the afternoon we received an MMS providing us with an access code and instructions to collect keys and where to park the car. In essence the hotel is closed on a Sunday so there is no one around. A little more information that this was the process would have been useful.
Warm welcome and staff service at breakfast. Make sure you pre book. We arrived on Sunday and so there is an automated check in system with a key code which worked well but some warning would have been useful. See below

No restaurant. If we’d known there was not going to be a restaurant we would have cancelled if we had not already was already paid for the reservation On walking in to the rest of the village all the other eateries were also closed for family holidays.
We booked a table for dinner only to find the owners and chef had gone on holiday 10 days before. The front of house said there were other places 800 metres into town where we could eat. Unfortunately all we’re closed as their owners were also on holiday. We ended up buying a basic meal from SuperU!!

Very poor. More hostel (and a poor one at that) than hotel. Arrived and NO ONE at hotel. We were sent a code for front door by text. Had to call to get access to car park despite booking. Hotel empty, all doors locked with our key left on reception. Hotel room freezing cold and very very basic. Heatring inadequate and was off completely on arrival. Radiator had not warmed room by next morning, really cold. No staff in whole building on arrival or when we left, no facilities for food. Beds very uncomfortable Advert picture does not show property is adjacent train line and next to rail crossing. Trains running through the night
very little to like about this place. They dont really want to be running the hotel and could not even be bothered to be there on arrival or departure

Double bed in room 10 was incredibly soft and sagged in the middle - both my husband and I slept terribly! New mattress needed!!! At 3:30am I moved into a small camp bed in our room and it was another extreme like sleeping on cement!! Zombie the next morning due to lack of sleep, not ideal given we had a lot of driving that day. Also room 10 is the side of the train line which wakes you up. This was our 2nd stay and we were v happy the 1st time around with a different room.
Good parking, easy location, good clean basic hotel
