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.).

Really nice staff, great quiet desert atmosphere, great location. Good value for money compared to the area.

IsraelIt is a very pleasant and peaceful place, with nice spots to sit and watch the beautiful stars at night, a well stocked kitchen and clean bungalows. It's near the town but far enough so the lights aren't bothering and there is no noise. We had a wonderful experience and we will surely visit again!

IsraelLight pollution prevented us from really enjoying the stars (like one can in the crater), which was our main motivation for staying there and which we asked about in advance. They assured me that the place was excellent for star gazing and seeing the meteor shower. It was OK, but I expected so much more. I would have preferred to be in the crater if I am driving all that way and paying all that money. Sound carries terribly. Booked a family tent and received a tent split in 2 so we could hear everything going on next door as if it was in our tent. The snoring from the other tent was horrific.
Nice, easy camping place. Environmentally friendly

United KingdomBathrooms are a bit dark, unless you choose the farthest one. Could do with some more interior lighting.
A nice vibe, the classic hostel type where you can chat easily with other solo travellers. Basic facilities, but I really liked it. Very helpful staff. It's about a 20 minute walk to the restaurants in the arty district of town, where I found a very good restaurant called "Edge" that the locals go to, open and serving very good food on shabbat. Great sunsets from the hill by the property. I like the stark beauty of the area very much.

PolandThe are common very basic bathrooms - what we expected, but compare to the rest of the compound some refurbishment of those places would be nice.
Have in mind it is not the usual hotel/hostel place. Staying in the Silent Arrow I felt like travelling with caravan thru the desert. You sleep in tent like rooms which reminded me of nomadic yurt. If you like nature you will like it despite the fact there is no electricity - come with your phone fully charged. There is also no reception as such - make sure you communicate with the staff thru the booking.com communication channel. The place has a lot of charm, the only light at night comes from the stars above. It is pretty far from the places to eat (at least 20-30 minutes walk along the dark roads) so make sure you are willing to drive to Micpe Ramon or you bring your own food. There is a spacious kitchen/dining area where you can cook.

ItalyNo electricity made my travel a bit hard as I could not store fresh food and charge my dying phone. On the other hand, this is the perfect environment to plug you off from the every day society. The tent was filled with many beds, therefore many people, therefore an abundant quantity of noise. As a solo traveler without a car, I needed to leave my luggage in the place before the check-in and I had to ask one guy of the staff to open the place for me (at midday, whereas the check-in is at 16.00). I felt uncomfortable disturbing him and arranging my backpack in such improvised condition.
The place is peaceful, neat, simple and lovely. It gave me good vibes, a kind of "hippie" lifestyle that I love. There is a kitchen provided with many tools and the bathrooms are clean, with hot water and soap. The bed I got was comfortable and the tent in which I stayed repaired well from the cold of the night. The staff was welcoming and polite with me. The place is out of the city and close to the Alpaca farm and it is pretty easy to be reached
