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.).

PolandYou can settle in during a very narrow time frame: only from 16:00 to 18:00. We arrived at 14:00 but the receptionist did not want to meet us and settle us in. I don't know if it is possible to check in late at night. The neighbourhood in which the hotel is located has a huge number of people from Arab countries. To say that there are a lot of them around is an understatement.
Good price. Basically the best option at this price in Brussels. The room has a microwave and utensils. Quite clean in the room and in the corridor. Clean bed linen.

United Kingdomthe light above the bed wasn't working. There is a side desk light but I needed that plug to plug in my phone so it would be great if the light above the bed would also work. Also it would be nice if they provide shampoo and shower gel, this can be done with either small ones like in a hotel or either those that fit to the wall and can be refilled. It would also be nice if there is washing up liquid for cleaning the dishes.
I had to call them to know how to get my keys.

United StatesThe doors don't lock automatically so just make sure to lock them with the key!! Some of the lights were out in the room (but some still worked).
We were pretty intimidated by all the recent poor reviews so we were worried when we showed up. Check-in was prompt right around 4pm and super easy. The room was clean and the radiator kept the room warm. We didn't have any noise issues. Loved that there was a microwave, fridge, and basic dishes!!! The water gets hot but can take a second. We stayed three nights and had no problem. Public transit is nearby and easy to access. Don't expect any luxury since this is a cheap place in a big city, but this is a good place to stay for the price.

United StatesThe lift was out of service, so not accessible by elevator as mentioned in the description. Communication with hosts/reception could definitely be improved. Reception was rarely there and they sent us so many messages on house rules and check-in instructions yet very unresponsive when we had questions or concerns.
The room was clean and the location was in a nice neighborhood. Several grocery stores nearby and public transportation was close.

RomaniaIt was not clean and I did not have a broom or a mop to clean the place myself. When I arrived It was very cold in the room and there was nobody at the reception desk because it was the 31st of december (9 pm) and the pin that I was given to the lock box which had the keys to my room was OFF. I had to call multiple numbers to give me a different code to the lock box which took me an hour, it was horrible.
The beds were confortable but squeaky.

NetherlandsIt said that there was staff during check-in from 4pm till 6pm, when we arrived at 4.30pm there was nobody! Along with a few others we had to see how to get our keys, with the person on the phone not wanting to come down there. Very weird. Eventually we got our keys out of the safe. The room didn't have electricity outlets next to the bed, which meant we couldn't use the nightlights. A few lights were broken too. The room didn't fully open, and since all the balconies are connected we didn't have fresh air during the night. There was a hole in the wall and the tv didn't work. Doorpost bathroom was broken. Both the bathroom door and normal door couldn't be locked. And it was very noisy. Got woken up at 7.30 am by running and screaming people.
The room had a microwave, fridge and cutlery.

FranceFirstly, during my 3-day stay, I only saw the receptionist on the last day. The reception was mostly closed. While collecting the keys, I couldn't find the receptionist. Only after calling the numbers, I got the email about how I can collect the keys. Some of the lights were not working and the room was dark. The walls and windows are not soundproof either.
The beds were comfortable. Although it was cleaned only once, the room was adequately clean. Facilities were working properly except for lights. The hotel is not in the center of the city, but it is still easy to get to the downtown.

RomaniaThe room was quite big, but the smell was very bad; I assume the previous occupants smoked. We couldn't freshen the air. Moreover, people smoked in the hallways—very noisy. The door squeaked badly, and for hot water, you had to wait at least 10 minutes, inconvenient if in a hurry. We called several times to pick up the key, and they mispronounced both of my names, making it challenging to find it
Not much

GermanyThe beds were not particularly comfortable. The bathroom had a musty smell and some mold was visible in the shower. Towels were torn in some places. The location is not particularly central, although not horrible either. The building looks run-down and frankly miserable.
Nothing, really. Consider this place only as a last resort if money's tight.

Malaysia1. Bathroom window is broken and anybody standing at the outdoor staircase can look in. Repair needed and glass should be changed to frosted type. 2. Our room 108 has a glass door to the back small landing which is broken too. 3. Small landing was never swept or cleaned ages ago. Advisable to put a broom and dustbin out on the small landing so that we can help to sweep. Furthermore the chairs and table are so dirty, an eye sore to the place. 4. Bathroom rubber lining should be replaced as they are blackish. 5. Bathroom drainage not working very well. 6. We stayed for 8 nights and only on the 7th day, we were given a change of towels.🤷 7. Would be good to have broom and dustpan in room as those who stays longer can upkeep the room themselves.

South AfricaOn arrival there was no one in Reception to help us. I had to walk through the place to find someone cleaning a room who could not speak English either. The place smelt of smoke. There was no Aircon. Not all the rooms had fans and it was very hot as you don't feel like you can leave a door open. Not all of our rooms were ready when we arrived for check in. You have to pay extra if you want your room cleaned. Our TV in our room did not work. we never complained as we were there on business so did not really have the need to watch TV.
After finding someone to help us check in. The host gave us a fan when we asked about no AC. They did supply us with fresh towels when we asked. Our room was clean.
