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.).

SingaporeRoom 2 - toilet door couldn't be locked, and the tap keeps dripping. Room soundproofing is not good - you can hear toilets flushing from the next room.
Room 2 (triple ) was quite spacious but room 3 (twin beds)was rather tight.

United KingdomExtremely small room (although, tbf, we knew we had booked the economy room) but shower was a bit of a struggle! Also, walls were very thin and you could hear next doors conversations some of the time!
Very clean. Great location...lots of pubs, shops and restaurant in the same road. Also had allocated parking...a necessity in Ambleside. Lots of tea, coffee and hot chocolate provided.

United KingdomThe noise from the street until early hours of the morning was incredibly loud, people drunk in the street shouting & swearing, someone in the room above banging around & swearing back at them, so sleep not possible . The room secuity system is also difficult to use as temperamental. The bedside lamps didn't work.

United KingdomThe beds were noisy and uncomfortable, the door code was fiddly and difficult to use, too many stairs up to the attic rooms, the bathroom had toe nail clippings from a previous user on the floor, although it was a very hot day in September the radiator in the bathroom was stuck on and so it was like a sauna, there was one very inadequate noisy fan provided. Appreciated the free parking although be aware that it’s a walk away.

United KingdomBathroom separate to bedroom, across corridor. Didn't bother us much but felt as though it could have been annoying for other guests when we were in and out of the bathroom. We tried to be as quiet as possible. The carpark was a fair walk away through pitch black wooded area on a night which we didn't expect therefore we found alternative parking.
Room was comfortable, and exceptionally clean. Information regarding check in was clear and concise. Perfect for our stay.
