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.).

AustraliaThere was a strpped out van... no seats and full of plants in the car park. The clientele were junkies waiting to die of alcoholism or drugs. They were scary to be round even for an adult male. There was a hobo... if I recall his name was Paul or Scott, who lived in the stairwell. The actual room was mostly ok... old style and simple but ok. Being woken up to some drunk junkie screaming "Ian, Ian, Ian, they stole my sh#t Ian. Ian, Ian, (loud banking noises). Ian, Ian, Ian. Screamed for 10 minutes straight. I kid you not. This is where the junkies come to die.
The price is great... but that is actually part of what makes it suck... this place is so cheap it is where the junkies come to die.

New ZealandFirst room stunk of cigarette smoke. The guy couldn't smell it but I realised next day when I checked out 2 days early that I think he might be a heavy smoker himself and so wouldn't have known. There was a domestic in a room couple doors down with Police involved. The next room smelled a little of cigarette smoke but the issue there was the curtain didn't close properly so anyone walking past would be able to see me in bed. There was noise for half the night. There were dodgy characters outside in the courtyard watching me and when I walked out first thing to a new place a comment from one of the dodgy characters left me feeling like these dodgy characters were keeping tabs on everyone coming and going. Not recommended. I rarely give reviews, unless exceptionally good or exceptionally bad. But in this case I recommend staying well away from this location until the dodgy characters are cleared out and the quality of the rooms, ie the smoke smell, is sorted.

AustraliaAfter booking it, with an arrival at 1:am on a road trip. I turned up to be told I didn't have a room. As it was a very late arrival, and believing I had a booking, being turned away meant everything was closed and I had to sleep in my car.
It was in a great location

AustraliaThere were derelict cars in the parking lot and the outside appearance of the property was scruffy - a bad first impression. Someone was having an argument for half that night but I guess I can't really blame the facility for that.

AustraliaI'd not read any reviews, so I was totally shocked. I asked if I would be safe as I was a female alone, and told yes, but from the moment I left the office to the moment I left the hotel, i felt under attack by a barrage of residents totally harrasing me. It was difficult enough getting into my room, let alone out of it, they continued to knock on my door, and I was followed, stalked, abused, offered drugs and threatened. Not ok. I had to leave, I didnt feel safe there and slept in a carpark, as there were no refunds. Totally dissatisfied, ruined what was supposed to be a theraputic healing weekend.
The staff lady was nice enough, and the rooms clean and have basics, which is all I need... BUT It was Dangerous. I really want to be positive for them, but I cant. The whole external environment is not welcoming. It's not a motel, it's a half way house, you cant use it as both. It's not ok. Its misleading and it wasnt safe, it was scary and I was harrassed from every side.

We booked 2 rooms, for 3 guests. There was mold covering the ceiling of one bathroom. The A/C in both rooms didn't work and were dirty and covered in mold. One room had a space heater, the other had no heat. There were drug users, knocking on doors, all night. Wanting a light. Other guests there, were screaming most of the night. Only got 4 1/2 hrs sleep. Vanity drawers broken in our bathroom.
