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.).

BahrainEverything was faultless.
Spotlessly clean, spacious room, more like a mini suite really. Comfortable bed and mountain views from the windows. Attention to detail was noticeable; a very professionally run guesthouse in a peaceful location. Excellent breakfasts (something different every day) served in a communal dining room, an excellent way to meet other travellers. Very attentive hosts, Svetlana and Sasha, and the lovely kind lady who served breakfast spoke enough English to overcome the language barrier.

United StatesLinens are changed once a week. I would prefer every 3-4 days. However, clean towels are provided if you ask. Occasionally replenishing of the toilet paper had to be requested.
I have stayed at Argo several times. It is consistently clean, pleasant, comfortable and a great value. The breakfast is substantial. The owner and staff are accommodating and very hospitable. They sincerely seem to enjoy what they do. Every thing functions well and it is safe.

Amazing sense of hospitality. Svetlana, the owner, was very friendly and accomodating. Breakfast is great and the room is quite luxurious and cozy. It looked like a chalet (mountain lodge) and they had solar panel, which is very rare in Kyrgyzstan. Laundry was 300som. They also have parking spots.

CanadaI don't think there is anything that could be better than what the Argo Guesthouse offers: beautiful room with good bedside reading lamps; superior linens; bathrobes; great bathroom; spotlessly clean; private veranda; great breakfast. I've paid far more for accommodation that is inferior to the Argo. I very highly recommend this guesthouse!

The room was quite big with a king size bed and excellent mattress. Very quiet with an access to the balcony above the beautiful garden/ orchard. The woman and her husband running the guest house are very helpful and welcoming. Their breakfast is the best one I had during this Kyrgyz trip. Their dog Lemon is an “amour “. I really enjoyed those 2 days spent at their place. The lake and the spots in Karakol are worth a visit. I highly recommend this place
