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.).

United KingdomIt’s a little beach shack so fairly basic but that’s kind of the charm really!!
The location is amazing, overlooking the beach. The staff and manager are all so lovely and friendly, couldn’t do enough for you, really kind and helpful.

United KingdomDisturbed by others returning. One longer-term stayer had taken over the shelving in shower room.
I stayed around New Year (everywhere was busy & expensive), so chose this shared dorm for 6 rather than beach huts. Affordable for 4 nights (around the cost of a good quality homestay in Kerala a month earlier). It was a few metres to their beach restaurant & others, and most places I wanted to go (swim, yoga class, plant food eating, Ayurvedic massage, beach walks, shops) were mainly 5-20mns walk. Photo is the view outside my lower bunk window towards beach.

United KingdomThe bathroom! I know it’s basic however it really needed either a good clean or a refresh. The taps were covered in limescale and scum, the walls looked like they’d had damp or mould painted over them.
The property is situated right on the beach in a great location, it has a buzzing atmosphere whilst being relaxed. Staff super friendly and the food is amazing. The room we stayed in gave incredible views, especially the sunset.

FranceWestern should generally avoid Goa from December 20th till January 15th due to the local party crowd that can become really unpleasant. Specifically I had to share the dorm with three Indian girls that were partying every night, making noises during the night, not allowing anybody else to sleap. Generally they came back to the dorm drunk and under drugs effects. We found empty whisky bottles and rests of weed in the garbage bin. They were rude, dirty, vomiting in our dorm bathroom and leaving their dirty underwear hunging around. I was pleased to leave and been sorry for my other two roomates, Sarah and Yona that had to keep cooping with these unberable girls.
Thé location was convenient, directly on the beach, we could use for free sun beds and having a restaurant and coffee shop service. The dorms were spacious with AC and hot water

IndiaRoom maintenance is not as per what they charge for the name of the property. They don’t clean the rooms on a daily basis, they don’t change towels and put new soaps on a daily basis. Once the electricity goes, it may take longer than expected, during this time there will be no water supply. When you stay at hut, during the afternoon Air-condition failed with the heat and in the night it becomes super cold.

NorwayIt says in the description that the room has a desk, and that toilet paper is supplied. Both missing. Not a big deal, but expectations vs. Reality! The room feels a bit overpriced compared with other places, considering the room was outside the main compound kind of a thing. There were a little bit too many electricity cuts, and no water in the room in the morning. If I KNEW, I would just have filled the bucket! AC in the room, which took ages to get cold, but better than nothing as it was sweltering hot away from the beach.
Cute brightly painted huts, a bit worn in the edges inside, but clean enough. Nice restaurant and tables on the beach in the evening. Good location. SUPERB WiFi, which works everywhere even in the rooms furthest away. Plenty of electricity outlets to charge all your gadgets. Friendly staff.
