Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

UkraineSqueaky floors and doors. Door locks seem not quite reliable. Furniture is already worn-out. A hairdryer in the bathroom is much needed; ideally - a shared kitchen/kitchenette or a least a kettle and cups/glasses.
Excellent location close to the centre and the Old town, Guggenheim museum and river side. Very friendly and helpful staff. Early check-in was available. OK for a short-term stay.

PolandThe floors and doors in the apartment are creaky, so it may be challenging to avoid noise. Additionally, the water pressure in the shower could be improved.
The hostess is an incredibly kind and helpful person, eager to provide visitors with all necessary information about the city and answer all questions – including in English language. I was truly impressed by her kindness and hospitality! Our room was clean, comfortable, and filled with natural light. The shared bathrooms also gave us the impression of being well-kept, although the water pressure in the shower is quite poor. Upon check-in, you are provided with a card allowing you to enter and leave the facility at any time, which is very convenient given the bustling location with numerous restaurants and bars nearby.

SpainThe room was quite small and was no place to put our clothes. Bathroom was busy in the morning, I think 2 toilets for many rooms are definitely not enough. For 1-2 nights it's perfect though.
It was comfortably warm inside (and not too warm), comfy and clean bed, great location (easily reachable by public transportation) and for all these a very affordable price! The staff was really nice, we even got some recommendations to visit nearby.

NetherlandsExcellent location, and a comfortable bed. There are more than enough toilets and showers, so do not let the 'shared bathroom' aspect scare you; it should be well possible not to have to wait. The shared bathrooms were spotlessly clean. All in all, a good solution if all you need is a basic room to stay in. Bilbao has such great options for everything else from breakfast to late night that I indeed just needed a place to sleep.

SpainIs located in a little bit noisy street so if your room, like ours, has a window to the street, it can be difficult to sleep on the weekends but we managed just fine, the people at the bar wheren't making that much noise. Also, not all bathrooms have showers which can be an issue if a few guests wake up around the same time to shower, we had to wait for a bit.
Location is quite amazing, less than 5 minutes away from the train station. It has a tram station almost in front of the door and a metro station 5 minutes away walking. Is in the city center and you can visit Casco Viejo and the bigest tourist atractions walking from there. The receptionist was the nicest with us.

New ZealandJust some minor matters. Main light in room was faulty and difficult to turn on. Reported to staff. Door to room was hard to open and close, so would have been noisy for other guests. Bathrooms are showing their age. The sheets on the bed are verging on the threadbare,especially the pattered top sheet. I know this is a one star establishment and don’t expect luxury but some improvements would maintain its reputation which it deserves.
Great location. Handy to the Metro, old town and other touristic sights. Short walk to Guggenheim. Very friendly and helpful staff, Miren and Veronica. The shared bathrooms were usually available when required. Towels and sheets could be changed on request. Opening window in the room. Lift to the first floor where the Pension is located.
