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 StatesMany reviews mentioned a kitchen, with fridge stocked with food. We knew nothing of this. I think we were checked in by the owner's, sweet Dad, who didn't speak much English, maybe a unique circumstance? When we asked about whether breakfast was downstairs. He handed us coupons and walked my husband to a bar where we could get cappucino and croissants for breakfast. They were very good! But we would have liked to know about access to the kitchen. The door to the area, I think reviews are referring to always had a closed door.
The location was great! Close to the square, sites, and good restaurants. It was very clean. And a short walk to the lake, even with my wrenched knee. The little balcony is nice and you can see a sliver of the water. The location is quiet, and the bed is comfortable.

New ZealandWe were woken by very loud noises from a truck outside at 7am using hoses to extract something from the drains, but this was not the fault of the B@B so I didn’t note it in the score. The pillows were flat and uncomfortable and towels were a bit small and scratchy.
The room was well located near San Giovanni close to restaurants. Interactions were pleasant with our host. The room was simple and clean with a small balcony overlooking the square, double glazed windows with blinds, a good firm mattress, and separate bathroom with some grout mould but pretty clean. Breakfast was dried biscuits or crackers, a jug of coffee and warm milk, and juice left for us to help ourselves. Reasonably priced for the area.

Perfect location, clean comfortable room which was bigger than photos shown. The host was there to greet us straight away and provided a small breakfast each morning which was appreciated. Other reviews I’ve read mention the noise but we had no issue with that in the peak of summer. The wifi also was no issue for us at all. Would recommend staying here :)

United StatesWe had very little Euro as our ATM cards did not work. Owner was not flexible and would not take US $ even with a 20% bonus. We had been told Euros only, but would have stayed elsewhere if there had been another room available in Veranna. The furnishings were sparse, but appropriate with the price. Had to walk 2 blocks to get Croissant and coffee for the breakfast, both were adequate.
The beds were very firm and area very quiet. Although the furnishings were sparse, they were in line with the low price.

New ZealandNo fan, it was very hot and stuffy in the room and leaving the blinds open meant mosquitoes came in. No access to cups or cutlery which would have been nice. Or a kettle to make hot drinks. It was advertised as a B&B however breakfast was just packet biscuits and a packet hard-bread and Luke warm coffee(pre made no ability to heat water or more coffee). Other guests said that they received a voucher for a local cafe to get a small pastry and coffee but not us.
amazing location, good bathroom and cute little balcony.

United StatesIt was very hot and muggy during my one night stay at this B&B and there was no air conditioning. I was never offered a fan. The lady who manages the place seems friendly enough yet she does not speak or seem to understand English and it was impossible for me to communicate this need. I opened the balcony door for part of the evening yet I had to close for most of the night it as it exposed me in bed and many people pass by the area which is very well lit. Other than this, everything was good for the price. I would recommend that they provide each room with a fan!
My room here was as I expected....it was very clean and was ideally located near the church and town square and only a short skip from the waterfront.

United KingdomExcellent location on the square and down about 30 steps to the front for restaurants and a lovely walk around to the ferry boats. The hotel was really clean and our room was lovely,for us breakfast could have had fruit or yogurts not just crustiny breads and jams and biscuits. The owner was helpful in ordering us a taxi to the train station which is a really good walk up hill. Toiletries offered was a small bar of soap so take shower gel and shampoo with you.
