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 KingdomThere is only 1 shower (two toilets) for all the guests which for some people is a problem. I am used to share living and only ever had to wait a couple of minutes so it wasn’t a problem for me.
This small guest house is so cosy, really felt like home for a few days. Such a lovely host and chill vibe. Very central but on a quite street.

AustraliaWe had the pleasure of staying over Christmas and the host, Juan, put on an amazing traditional Argentinian BBQ for the guests. Cannot say anything bad about this place. Juan and his Trastienda Guest House made our Christmas away from home one we will never forget! Cannot recommend highly enough!

United KingdomJuan was amazing, really friendly and attentive! He gave us a lot of recommendations in el calafate as well. The guest house was clean, spacious, and felt very communal. The kitchen was fully equipped and there was a coffee machine as well. Garden was a nice outdoor space and Juan also hosted an amazing Asado! The location was great as well.

NetherlandsThe room was cold( no heaters in the room). We couldn’t lock the room doors so need to take valuable stuff with us all the time we left the place. Our last night there was a loud party downstairs till 4:00 am, I didn’t sleep the whole night, not so nice especially when you need to work the next day.
The place is fine, nice livingroom downstairs, kitchen and dining room for guests.

BulgariaThe house is for about 15 people, but there is only one bathroom, so this could be an issue if the house is full.
It’s a cosy house great for group of friends (it you are 6 you could share one room together) There is a lot of shared place which everyone could use - kitchen, living room. Location is great, just 3-4 minutes from the main street with restaurants and shops. If you are with rent a car it’s easy to find a parking spot. Juan is very responsive and if you have any issues in the house he take care very quickly. Last night we had a barbecue organised from Juan (we payed for it), he is great chef, so we enjoyed a night in a company of all house guests and some friends of him.
