How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Rooms and toilets were in good condition but little bit small, beds need to be bit bigger in size for couple. Although it was a pleasant stay at this place but i would constructively suggest to please change the carpets in the room as they are bit old and stuffy. Trays and cups were not clean enough in the cabinets. Please make such changes and provide much more cleaner environment. Thank you.
This place is located at very good location adjacent to multiple food options and shopping malls and also closest to the public transportation and city. I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. I will recommend to stay here as it is very economical and situated in good location.

The air conditioning was not good. Carpet was older worth to change but clean. The mat under the sink was soaked with water. We took it out and got a cockroach on it, which we brought in and had to kill. There were more of them outside by the bins.
Hotel was nicely located on the tram line. We stayed on the ground floor. The room has a small compact bathroom. Nice lady on the reception, possible parking behind the hotel included.

It is a VERY basic room... bathroom, beds, TV & kettle. There was no microwave or toaster so you are forced to eat out unless you want cereal. Only 2 chairs for 3 people
The location is excellent...very close to the city and the main shopping strip in Brunswick. Tram at the door and easy walk to cafes and restaurants

When I first arrived I was placed in a room at the front of the hotel. Although this room was larger and had some extra little perks, like a balcony. It was the worst location. It was right on the road and was extremely noisy and I only got about 2 1/2 hours sleep that night. The rooms at the front of the property need some serious noise dampening modifications. If you stay here don't stay in a room at the front of the property I was in 17 and there was room 18 next to me. Also some rooms below. I asked to be moved the next morning and fortunately they were able to accommodate this. I was ready to move Hotels if they couldn't.
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. They assisted me with local advice and whenever I had an issue they were able to assist and rectify them. The rooms are what you would expect from this level of Hotel and price range. However they were clean and functional, the only downside was the mold in the shower, always a turnoff for me. It is well located to public transport if this is something you need to consider.
