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.).

the breakfast was good although not as lavish as my previous stay. There was not hot cereal, which I like and the coffee arrangement was lacking - self preparation and drinking coffee in paper cups is not acceptable in my book!!

United StatesThey have a couple of buildings - one is very basic, the other a bit nicer. on Friday nights they tend to have large groups of guests and the water pressure was extremely low. it was completely resolved on the other days. check in on Saturday is at 10pm, which can also be inconvenient.
location and breakfast are great.

FranceThe bathroom is clean and has a good size but the bathtub doesn't. While taking a shower, you are "almost forced" to touch the curtain or the soap dish with your body. Getting into the bathtub can be dangerous if you have problems with walking, balance or short stature. Keep an eye on that.
Good place, close to Tel Aviv center (15 to 20 minutes by taxi). Good and varied breakfast, but have in mind that the place will not have pork products due to local customs. The hotel is inside a kibbutz, so expect to see and feel communal-lifestyle vibes. The crew in the outside cafeteria are incredibly friendly and sympathetic. Although I had no chance to test, they have two game-rooms with video-games and arcades.

GreeceSignposting was terrible… I found it difficult to find the entrance to the hotel from the road; the reception was also hard to identify once in the precinct as were the locations of the rooms. There was no WiFi in the section where my room was and the telephone did not work either so I was obliged to walk across to the reception every time for connectivity. The mechanism for the blinds of the high level window was broken so the blind remained closed. No swimming pool or it was no longer in use(!)
The room and bathroom were spacious. The breakfast was exceptionally varied and excellent, worth going to the hotel just for the breakfast!

SwedenExtremely dirty and worn down outside the room. Extremely poor noise attenuation from outside and neighbouring rooms. (And happy partying youngsters all night long.) Staff did not show much enthusiasm but that that can certainly be understood considering the non-stop wild partying.
Clean and cool room. Good breakfast even for a vegan.

Israel- Staff is nice but too often we didn't get the service we needed. In one case the bartender in the bar disappeared for half an hour, in another, we needed the light bulb to be replaced in the garden and that didn't happen until the next day. Mostly staff like that. - Not too much activities on site.
- Clean (but a bit old) - Nice location if you're looking for something which is "zimmer-like" and in the central district. - Daily tickets to the water park across the street - decent breakfast

IsraelClassic room is not to be booked. Classic rooms need to be urgently renovate not to be put on the market. The price for them is to high also. Superior rooms are ok, price to high. Reception guy very rude, angry that we complained about the things that wasn't worked in the room. Refrigerator not working, bathroom with black mold.
Breakfast and dinner ok, not wow! You can find something to eat, but very modest for the price you pay for it. Water park nearby recommended. Surrounding pastoral and quiet, nice for a walk That's was the second time we accomodate here, we have much better memories from the first stay here. Now, the second stay was quit a disappointment, room, meals, staff... Such a pity!

IsraelAs I said, the hotel itself and everything inside it looks like they were frozen from the 90's or beginning of 2000. It wasn't bad, but it can be improved.
It was quite nice, not too fancy, clean and all in all, it was worth the money and met our expectations. I would do this again. The combination of the hotel itself and the water park was the right combination.

IsraelFood was fine. Wine would have been nice at dinner. The hotel called us just a week before our stay (when all other dates were already booked) that the main day we would be there, the water park wpuod be closed for an event - with no discount and in addition, They charged us extra for the ages of our kids. They should have offered a discount for renting out the waterpark for an event when the hotel had already been booked (for two months) to previous guests.

IsraelThey didn't had any food shop or even a food cart open. We were few days BEFORE the season opening, so ... probably expected due to the small number of people around. I am sure all will change next week (after June 1st).
The place is nice, peaceful but recommended when the water park is open. Even tough only few guests they prepared a very good breakfast.

IsraelI don't have much to complain about. The only thing I think needs some improvement is the Lobby chairs and sofas they were not comfortable at all. Maybe to add more benches or rocking chairs in the grass area. I really can't complain, everything was wonderful.
We had the most beautiful family vacation this August. We loved our huge comfortable room. We loved the play room for our kids, the grass with the blow up jumping activities, we loved the breakfast every morning. The pool was incredibly fun, it was amazing to have a water park 1 minute away. We also loved the Beach Cafe looking over the ocean. It was a dream vacation for us- I would recommend it to Everyone!!!!! Not too crowded by people, so calm and relaxing at night to sit on the grass. Staff was amazing. We will defiantly be coming back next summer!
