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 KingdomThe first flight of stairs are narrow and required maximum attention from myself. Towel was a little small but I had my own. The pillows and duvets in Germany all seem to be a little strange to me so I have my own sleeping bag and pillow, in this occasion it is personal preference the bedding was lovelly just not what I am used to.
I cannot exagerate how clean this place was, I wasnt sure if I had locked my car so I popped down the stairs bare foot to check as she was right outside the front door, when I got back to my room (5) I had not a spec of dust dirt or anything on my feet. How many hotels have a stairwell that clean? Bed was firm but comfy. The whole building and room were toasty warm. Plenty of shampoo provided and the hair dryer was smol but mighty. Shower was like a power wash and it kept a good high temperature whilst I washed my hair. Towel smelt lovelly as did the bedding. Parking on the street is free until 10am from the evening before. The host is lovelly and welcoming, super friendly and jolly.

GermanyThe location is in the outskirts and not easily accessible. The bus stop is around 200 meters far from the hotel. There are not many restaurants too nearby.
The room was clean and on the ground floor. The breakfast was good and staff people are friendly too. If you are tight on the budget then its a very good option.

Breakfast was super. Staff was very friendly. And the location was the best - so close to Messe Essen.

GermanyThe price doesn't allow to expect something special, but for the money the owner at least supposed to try. Alas. Black and red fungus in the bathroom, musty smell, and multi-year deposits of dust. Totally not recommended to people with allergies and squeamish persons.
The location is good, near the city center yet relatively calm. Hosts are friendly and responsive. Equipment is worn out but fully functional.

Czech RepublicCustomer Service: We have arrived at around 6.15 pm after long drive in full heat and were incredibly tired. To get inside you need to ring a bell and owner (probably) who lives on 1st floor opens the door. There is not any official reception area. When made the stairs guy only looked outside of the door gave us straight keys and was waving and showing with his hands go up on 2nd floor and repeated go, go. I was trying to ask some information regarding check in, payment and breakfast, but he continued to say all tomorrow and no problem, your room is on 2nd floor. There was some tv backgroud noise so I guess there was some important tv show. After a short rest app 1 hour we went down to collect our stuff from the car. At that moment I have seen 2 A4 papers attached to the wall on 1st floor in German and English saying that on Tuesday an Friday parking square cannot be utilized after 18.30 due to next day market. When we arrived due to speed of check-in and being constantly sent in our room we even didn't have a chance to notice it! And the owner didn't tell us anything or in any other manner indicated those papers. When we went downstairs our car was already removed. I run back to the guy asking for help (it was 7.15 pm) and guy told me nothing to do and car can be collected only next morning. I am pregnant 7.5 month with huge belly and all our staff in the car. So I've asked guy several times to give me a phone number for the service to call. He refused and called 2 times in German (neither me not my husband speak a word in German) somewhere himself, those were very short calls and he said nothing to do now and only tomorrow. I have insisted to get phone numbers from him to try directly, but he only laughed at my face saying all tomorrow and nothing to do.
Room overall was quite clean and bathroom is new
