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 StatesOur room was small, it's a studio so can't really hold that against them. It can be a bit noisy, my husband had a hard time sleeping with everyone in different schedules.
Location! We stayed to hike Trolltunga and this is really close, up the driveway and you are the road to Trolltunga. There are tables and chairs right along the water to relax and enjoy. It's an older building decorated nicely. Free parking, right there. It's like a hiking hostel, with private room/bathroom options.

NetherlandsApartment interior is done with the absolute minimum, everything crooked, rusty or mouldy. Not very clean either. Very thin walls. It's ok if you're backpacking and used to living in a tent but at this price point it is really underwhelming.
Friendly helpful staff, decent beds, sufficient parking space.

IsraelThe room and shower are somewhat not as well maintained. This is a very basic accommodation that with lower pricing could be fine for the purpose of the Trolltunga visit.
The location is comfortable for the Trolltunga hike and to the town itself. The outside seating facilities are pleasant. The shower hot water was working well.

NorwayThe kitchen inside the room was smaller than I thought, but it was ok since we could use the common kitchen.
Very friendly staff, he gave us a lot of tips for hiking recommendations given the bad weather. The room was little, but enough for a stay of 1-2 nights. The common kitchen was clean in general, except when a lot of people were using it. But ok to cook a quick meal. We could play a board game in the common area while it was raining outside.

SwedenIt was noisy during the night because of people up at 4am leaving at 5, or 5am leaving at 6 , or 6am leaving at 7, etc you get the idea, we were on the first floor and so could hear every footstep above. The external stairs were metal and so as people came down, some bumping suitcases every step, it was very loud. Crunchy gravel in the car park also didn't help. For the price, it was very basic.
Easy enough to park and close to the town. Staff helpful.

United KingdomThere was a lot of noise transference in the block. We had very noisy people above us first night stomping around until early hours. Thankfully Dante found us a quieter room the second night.
The staff Dante and Inessa were so friendly and helpful. Location was ideal for our Ragnarok filming spot hunt. Town is very industrial amidst beautiful surroundings. Rooms are clean, tidy and functional with fridge, hob and kettle. Showers work well.

GermanyKitchen including the technical equipment requires same attention for cleanliness as the room itself. Check the posted address of the location. My Navigationsystem would have send me to the quarter on the other side of the main roat. I found the location simply because I checked it prior departure with google maps.
Cleanliness of room, shower, bedding and received linen. Friendliness of the staff. Sufficient parking places. Very satisfied!

United StatesDirty floor in the kitchen lack of shower towel, had to step on dirty floor directly from shower. Shower head did not have a mount on the wall so I had to hold it in my hand and wash with another. My quilt had huge blood stains on it after washing… customer is responsible for placing sheets on the quilt and pillow and i don’t understand how something this disgusting could made on the guest bed.

IsraelThe description, photos and especialy a rating of 10 is misleading. Rooms are very basic and small. Rate was very high given the fact that breakfast is not included and there is additional charge for bed lining and towels. No option for cancelation. Fee was charged upfront, so I was locked in without ability to change.
The host was extremely nice and helpfull. Location is reasonable.

LatviaWe really liked the location, very accessible and easy to find. Our host was a really great guy, plenty of humour and laughs guaranteed! If you like Odda and Ragnarok series and/or need to stay for the night after demanding Trolltunga hike then this is the place. A view at night is also spectacular, you can see the famous factory from there. Rooms are very simple, don't expect too much, but hey, you will be very happy to sleep there because beds are super comfortable and everything is clean.
