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.).

Czech RepublicToo far from the city centre. The area is not too nice. The metro station is a bit too far and metro goes not in the wished direction))) However, it was OK and can be recommended.
Owners, room, bed, cleanliness - all these were good.

SpainThe location could be better, the combination to the city center takes around 30 minutes. Be aware that in booking.com it says it has "Luggage storage" but it hasn't!! However, we mentioned it to the owner and he helped us to find the best solution for our luggage, he recommended us some luggage storage services in the main train station to the airport. The quality / price ratio could be better.
The room was very very spacious, with a huge bed and a big wardrobe. I don't think the room was soundproof, but it doesn’t matter, we didn’t hear a single noise any night, and we could sleep very well. The bed was especially comfortable. The bathroom was also big and convenient. We had free coffee in the mornings.

ItalyThe toilet could have a more powerful fan being that it doesn't have windows.
The high roof, the big windows, the big room. The staff also offered more towels and toilet paper. The quality-price ratio: using public transportation you can get easily aroud saving compared to an accomodation near the attractions of Wien.

ItalyThe room is really small. I expected it so it is not minus - but please be aware. Neighbors can be loud.
The staff organized my arrival in a very precise and clear manner. It took me 3 minutes to enter the room with the instructions they provided. The neighborhood is just great - with a supermarket in front of Pension and a lot of cafes around: quite shick Alser Cafe - and Donnermaster if You want just food. I have no trouble in reaching the city by tram 2 and bus 13A. The room has every facility You need - and also a fridge, and a small kettle and some ware to eat something quickly inside. It is ideal if You have things to do in the city and are back really late.

The location of the hotel is very convenient with quick connections by public transport to the station and city centre. A lot of nice shops are around and it has a very reasonable price. Clean and convenient.

United KingdomIt was cleaned very well in the places that count... The beds, sinks, showers, toilets etc were all very clean and well maintained, it could be improved with a refurbishment but for the time we spent in the room it really didn't matter, and the comfy bed was perfect. If you're fussy and going to look around for dust in the corners of the room and on light shades etc then this might not be the place for you. The shower height was perfect for me, my partner is 6ft and it was a bit small for him. The pillows and mattress were brilliant but maybe investing in new duvets would make it even better.
I had an amazing night's sleep in this bed. 10/10 Very comfortable. Nice warm shower with good pressure. Friendly staff and cleaners. It's nice to have windows that open when needed for fresh air. Good wardrobe space with hangers and an extra blanket in case you get cold, but the heating was good enough in the rooms. Herbal and fruit tea with mugs and kettle was a nice touch and there is also a TV and a fridge. It was a nice, quiet room, we were away from the road and you could only hear the trams if you were sat in silence and really tried to listen for them. Overall the WiFi was very strong, it did cut off briefly once but it was at midnight anyway when I should have been sleeping! The curtains smelled fresh like they had recently been cleaned and the towels and bedding were the same. The tram stop is literally outside of the door and only a few stops down to the main area, or you can walk it in about 20-30 minutes. I would definitely stay here again.

LatviaThere is nothing that I didn't like. But I have recommendations: 1. Would be nice to have a knife in the room (you can't cut or open some products with a tea spoon) 2. I appreciate that after 2 nights they took rubbish from my room but it's better to inform that someone will come to my room
A clean, comfortable room is perfect for a few days. I stayed there for 4 nights and I really enjoyed. The place is closed to supermarkets. Nice that I have a fridge, great heating and strong shower 🚿.

SloveniaThe only thing that really need being looked at is their internet. Not that it does not work, it does, only the connection was not stable all the time. We moved the computer closer to the modem and it worked better.
The place is not among the most modern but the amenities are all there and the feeling one has is really welcoming and calming at the same time. We liked the place tremendously.
