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 place is grubby and very outdated. I found a used unmentionable bit by the side of the bed which was obviously left by the previous guests in that room . I was horrified and disgusted ,this was supposed to have been cleaned properly before the next guests . When booking I clicked on a room with twin beds but to my surprise I got this crammy room ,not even a side lamp was provided. No cooked breakfast just some very cheap cornflakes. What happened to the hotel inspector ? the place is not fit for purpose, the water from the shower just trickles, the bathroom mats were old and dirty and I was afraid of stepping onto them. I felt very sorry for myself that I had subjected myself to this ! I should have taken heed of the reviews , but I thought by now they would have improved. I will never set foot there, it's not cheap even . They demand £10 for the key ,why? It's unfortunate that one is unable to visit these places before you book, I would never have booked there had I known the state of the place. I really should have taken a photo of the unmentionable but I was so horrified that I didn't want to look at it. I told the housekeeper to empty the bin and put another bin liner.
There was nothing to like about my stay at this place.

United KingdomThe place and the room smelled of smoke, the beds were really uncomfortable, and the bathroom was smelly and not very clean. You can see the pictures are from the hotel, but I don't know how long ago were taken, cause doesn't look the same, and you can see they avoided the bad parts.
The lady in there doesn't speak English, but she is very friendly.

United KingdomCarpet in stairs is discusting make the whole hotel looks like a homeless shelter, very neglected and Im wondering where are the hotels inspectors. TV in the room has a remote control which wnt working, bedroom's door cnt be locked regardless you pay £10 deposit for the key. Wall's decoration is DIY with very poor finishing. Light in corridor would shine in the room because the door is not fitting well in the frame.

NigeriaThe location.
I have been using Booking.com services for many years and this hotel fell too low regarding standards; moreover in a city like London. The staff lacked simple etiquette. Toilets were dirty, Rat infested property. The owner ran the facility alone, so poor management. Upon checking out, I could not get my £10 refundable deposit, because the owner was away and there was no cash, though I was made to pay the same by cash only when I did (no card payment allowed).

United KingdomThe whole place was filthy and falling apart, no access to a kitchen or even a cup of coffee in the morning. Children playing up and down the stairs at all hours of the night. SO MUCH noise and shouting until late into the night / early morning. The beds were extremely old, dirty, lumpy and rock hard. The water pressure in the shower (which didn't even have a door!) was so poor, I'd have gotten cleaner just standing outside in the rain. Kept getting locked outside on the street whenever we went to have a smoke. Definitely not a "hotel", as the name claims. We weren't expecting much for the price, but holy cow that was awful.
It was really close to a tube station and... At least we weren't sleeping on the street?

BulgariaThe room and the toilet ware not clean. It smelled of cigarettes. The Room condition was bad (walls, furniture, curtains and windows, thay ware hard to close). It was not a hotel but more a habitable house with second floor with rooms for guests. There was a dog on the first floor barking in the evening. You didn't receive a key for the front door, so in the morning wen I went early for a coffee I needed to stay 10 mins in front of the house before someone half naked opened the door.
