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.).

PolandThe kitchen has only basic equipment (kettle and microwave), so it's not ideal for longer stays if you don't want to eat out every day. But it's definitely enough for a quick visit to Oslo.
Excellent location, a 5-min walk from the Opera house and the train station. Easy to check in and out. Nice and spacious common areas. The rooms are not very big, but clean, quiet and comfortable. I know there were people staying next to me, but couldn't hear them at all (which of course was a good thing). Perfect for a short stay.

The room was small as stated. It was clean and the bed with 2 pillows very comfortable. It was as advertised and met our expectations. The facilities in the complex allowed clients plenty of space to sit, eat, relax.

United KingdomThe lift button from my floor wasn’t working, so had to take the stairs every time we left. Also would’ve been great if there was a leaflet or guide in our room for when we arrived to tell us about the hotels facilities. I felt we would’ve got that if there wasn’t self service check in
Great location and good value for money. Self service check-in / check out was easy to manage.

United KingdomI only had two issues with my stay - the WiFi did cut off a few times, and I had to reconnect. I also noticed that the heating in my room was quite low, even when set to full, which was ok for my trip but any colder it would have been a problem. Additionally, a lot of the rooms do overlook busy roads with trams etc, I can confirm other people’s complaints that it was a bit noisier than usual but I found the sounds of trams to actually be relaxing. It’s also very “independent” in the sense that unless you seek them out, you really don’t need to encounter any staff while here (again, not an issue for me and found them when needed) but appreciate others may want more than a screen on check in.
I enjoyed my stay overall. The location and cost were very good, and the shared facilities were of a good standard. Room was a good size for a single traveller, and I say this as a bigger guy, so imagine for others it’d be even better. Was ideal for a weekend in the city as a tourist. The staff were very accommodating when I asked them to keep my room on until past check out time too.

SpainNothing specially. Maybe that the soap is not enough in the bathroom.
Very clean and comfortable rooms, bigger than expected (I booked the smallest one), toilet and shower very good as well. Perfectly located, even though in the middle of the city, it is very quiet and you can rest without listening noises. They do not serve breakfast but there is a common area where you can prepare coffee, eat...

United KingdomNever saw a member of staff and considering I arrived alone at 1am in the morning it would have been nice just to help check-in. And when I emailed them via your site I never got a reply in the end I went direct to their website. Wished been informed prior that there was a kitchen, it isn’t obvious on your site..
It was clean, quiet, everything I’d need in the room, warm. Good location, really I can’t fault the hotel.
