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...).

FranceComfy bed and clean room. The staff was very helpful and available. They have cute cats. Old house so maybe not for people with very high standards, I personally don't mind.

DenmarkSadly no heating during winter so it was too cold and not very comfortable. The location is out of town so this place is only suited for people with their own means of transportation.
A traditional house which was a nice experience.

NorwayUnfortunately a bit far from train stations, so it took me a while to walk there the first day. The location is in the nature so you will have to deal with a few bugs now and than, but not many. 🪳😆
I hd the most amazing time with the employees in the hostel. They were so helpful and kind. They drove me to wherever i wanted to go, and they would get worried and check on me if i was ok when i was hiking in the mountains at night. The helped me learning japanese and took me to some beautiful shrines. I got so many good reccommendations from them. The best part about this place is the people that work there and the beautiful nature. Its surrounded by mountains and forests as far as you can see. All green and just very beautiful. The bed is a little hard but the comforter, pillow and blankets are very comfortable.

FranceThe host were really kind. They made my stay really good ! They were always available to help me when I had questions. Moreover, the guesthouse is really good, it looks like a typical Japanese country side house and the environnement around the guest house is really nice to have a walk or go hiking. Thanks a lot to the host, my arrival at Japan would not could have been so good !

AustraliaThe bathroom was in a pretty bad state, I can stay in some grubby places but there was a quite a bit of junk here and there. The kitchen was the most off putting part, I didn’t even go anywhere near it. Look it’s an okay stay if you need to crash somewhere with a lovely host but if your holidaying for genuine comfort this might not be your spot.
The host was lovely and spoke a little English which was great and the overall room was in fine condition. Toilet was also in great condition except for the giant spider I saw aha, he was harmless.

United States of AmericaThis is quite possibly the dirtiest place I've ever stayed. Do not come here if you don't like dirt and grime. Trash and clutter was strewn about as well. There was even a spider web, with spider, next to the sink. Its also extremely far from the station, basically in the countryside. Also, no light in my bed
Check in was easy. Nice owner. They converted an old house into a hostel, with a fully stocked N64. Heater worked well on a cold night. Had covered parking for my bike. Had signs directing how to get to the place since Google gives the wrong directions.

JapanTo be fair, we must note that the two men running this place are in the middle of sprucing it up. When they've finished this job, the hostel might be better. But the location is a problem. One needs a taxi from Shin-Shimonoseki station.
The room itself was clean; so was the (communal) toilet. The (communal) bathroom/shower room much less so.
