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 KingdomVERY VERY LOUD as it is located right next to the highway and the windows are not glazed, it was cery hard to get some sleep.
The place is easy to find, 10 min walk from center, parking in front of the building. Great communication with clear details on how to self check in. Clean and spacious room, bed was comfy.

PolandPlatamone Rooms is my favourite place to stay in Catania when I fly home the next day. Location is perfect: - very close to the station Catania Centrale, the bus station, and Alibus (going to the airport) - very close to a trustworthy luggage room (where we can safely leave your luggage when we have a flight in the afternoon or the evening) The room we usually book is spacious and has a balcony with a view of the sea. You can make coffee or tea even in the middle of the night in a kitchenette in a common area. Convenient check-in as the owner sends you a code and information on how to collect a key. Remember to bring earplugs - some rooms are quiet but the room facing the sea overlooks a busy road.

FinlandThe AC seemed a bit old and didn't really work. The pipes make a lot of noise when you turn the water on and the stairs may be a challenge for some people.
The location is great and the room was tidy and quite large. There was also a shared fridge for food and drinks which we appreciated. There's a busy street right by the hotel but you can't really hear the sound of the traffic in the room. The balcony is handy for drying clothes/towels.

GermanySound proofing windows would be better. Not for People who sensitive with sound. But for me I can sleep, ok for 1 night. Small bed as expected not comfortable. Better book a French bed.
Great value for 1night, close to the bus stop that will go direct to airport. Self check in/out no problem. Really clean. A bit confuse with the bus stop to airport(not as Google map), can ask around there, photo is for bus stop for bus to airport

Romania- the toilet is not really good at flushing, and needs to be pressed a few times.
Everything was great. The host sent us the instructions on how to check in, as we arrived pretty late. The place is just a few minutes away from the main train station and the main bus terminal. A lot of places to eat just a block or two away, and 10 minutes walk from the center.

AustraliaThe property was very close to public transport which is what we were looking for when booking in Catania and was great value for money as the room was very pleasant and clean. The staff were helpful and the communal area was very nice. If you are travelling with heavy suitcases be wary as there are a lot of stairs.

RomaniaThe thing is this location is near the train and bus station(we had an early flight and that s why we choose this location) so there s a lot of activity until late at night. We also took a wrong Street and ended up in a bad neigbourhood so use maps/waze if you walk back.
The room and bath where very clean, we had a very good communication with how to acces the property, so no complains here also the price was unbeatable. The value price-quality was the best we could have. You also have access to a kitchen and I believe in the morning you can have a little breakfast, we left to early to see.
