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.).

AustraliaGhetto room with dirty carpet shagged out bed, and the bathroom was third world standard. Glassware disgustingly grubby, and the little noisy fridge froze my food and canned beverage in an hour! The room was absolutely nothing remotely like any of the photos on the webpage. No lighting in the car park, resembled a crackhouse ally way.
Booking was easy. Communication was good.

AustraliaOn entering the room the smell of mould was quite strong. While the bedding was clean, there was so much mould in the shower that I wore thongs (flip flops). The furniture was old and quite stained. The lamp beside my bed didn't work and there were no easily accessible PowerPoints next to the bed. This place is ok for overnight but I wouldn't want to be there for a week.
I thought the location was great and also appreciated that it was quiet. The instructions on how to access my room and the building were clear and there is parking provided although for a fee. The bed was comfortable and so were the pillows and the air-conditioner was great and super quiet. There was also a kettle and microwave and fresh milk in the fridge. However, no toaster

AustraliaI'm not usually one to complain, but this hotel does have some issues that need addressing: Entry instructions in the emails are different to those at the entrance to the hotel Parking was very difficult, customers would benefit from some instructions on where the longer term street parking is located. Queen bed was two singles pushed together, very uncomfortable

AustraliaThe shower was no good for my 6 ft partner as it aimed at his chest . The pressure was very low, and the rose head was loose and worn and couldn't be tightened. The bath was extremely slippery and made it dangerous to step into. The other guests were running up and down the halls at 3am and as there are no staff in house there was no one to stop them . Just a few concerns but would stay again.
We liked the closeness to the beach and the view. The bed was really comfortable, and the air con was awesome on such a hot day .
