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.).

QatarIf you have heavy luggage then it will be a bit difficult as the place doesn’t have elevator.
The place is clean. Near the bus station. Easy checking in. Easy door access as they will give you a code to enter. Nice simple breakfast too. There’s also a water heater inside the room.

FinlandWe have a private bathroom outside the room. The problem was we could not get light in there. Washing was difficult with the flashlight of the cell phone.
The breakfast was really good. Own beds and blankets. The keeper was helpful. We got good advice to travel by bus.

United KingdomThe place could do with a deep clean. It wasn't terrible, but they don't seem to understand that you need to regularly move the furniture to get under and behind it. The tablecloths at breakfast were stained.
Reasonably priced and well located.

PolandWi-Fi was very weak for most of my stay; I could not work or talk to my family without interruptions. Also, the TV signal was weak for the last two days. Maybe it was just a temporary problem.
A cosy and quiet room with a clean bathroom, a nice breakfast (it was possible to choose a few different hot meals), and helpful, smiling staff. The manager responded to my questions quickly.

United KingdomA small thing, but we would prefer mugs in the room instead of cups and saucers. Also more variety of teas, coffees, and perhaps small packs of biscuits available to nibble. blinds in our room looked a bit tired, but adequate.
Such a friendly and cheerful host to welcome and look after us at breakfast time.. cooked breakfast was excellent and beautifully hot and fresh. security system was very easy to use and very reassuring to know we could come and go independently and easily. there was a lovely fresh aromatic smell in the house. excellent carpet in great condition.

United KingdomI was happy with everything.
The owners were very accommodating with our dietary requests as my husband is gluten free. the breakfast was great and the owners are so friendly. The room was clean and the location is perfect as it is only a 15 minute walk to the Royal Mile. It was also close to the student Halls of Residence and as our daughter is at the university, this is why we chose to stay in this area of Edinburgh. It was only a 5-10 minute walk to the Halls of Residence.

AustraliaThe bathroom for our room was across the hall. This was a littel inconvenient when in a hurry. Booked the room because it had its own bathroom but didnt realise it was across the hall. Also the room was a little small when travelling with 8 weeks worth of luggage.
The room was clean and very warm. Our hosts were extremely helpful and quick to respond to our queries and requestsand we always came home from our days exploring to a lovely warm room. The breakfast was simple but very nice and catered to dietary needs.
