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.).

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn't like. The four stories and twisting staircases plus the small shared bathroom could be a problem for some guests.
Muna and Lucien were very welcoming and helpful, the range and quality of food at breakfast was excellent (a lot of home made preserves), there was a kitchen for guests' use and an attractive back garden. We enjoyed our stay in this interesting conveniently located traditional town house.

Czech RepublicAlthough the room was nice and with a castle view, its wall was adjacent to shared toilet and shower wall, so I could hear people taking shower at 6 AM.
A small very cozy hotel with a family-like atmosphere and nice location in the center of Thun. I had very nice room with a view on a castle. I also greatly appreciated Muna and Lucien, who made me feel not like in a hotel, but like visiting someone else´s home. When you look for the accomodation on the street, it is from "downstairs" (it is basically located below the terrace on the lower street level)

United KingdomA little cramped, and with a shared bathroom, you’d hope that everyone would lock the bathroom door….someone didn’t, and I was very embarrassed at 2:30 in the morning, when I walked in on a male guest! 🫣
The accommodation was clean, and comfortable, albeit, our room was in the eaves, so lots of ducking to get into bed without banging my head, and not much room around the bed for moving about. Not very suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Lovely being able to open the velux windows and see the castle, and hear the church bells. We were glad that there was a fan supplied, as it was very warm when we were there. Nothing seemed too much trouble for our hosts.

This is an old school B&-like experience with the nicest hosts you'll ever meet who live in the building. For example, in much of Europe you get only a duvet with no top sheet. I sleep hot and this arrangement doesn't work for me. Lucien & Muna solved it for me immediately with a creative solution. Bed was comfortable and they accommodated my request for a quieter room. The breakfast was a home made, locally sourced, truly delicious example of traditional European breakfast.

PakistanReally? Are you serious?
This place is not a BnB. It's an island of incredibly tender love and care disguised as a BnB. From the moment I was received (4 hours b4 check in time) to our 6 am goodbye the next day, Muna was an angel of hospitality I've never seen in 35 years of travel. She absolutely insisted that she would serve me breakfast at 6 am despite my urging her not to do so. And she makes the best cup of tea I've ever had in my long travel history. What can I add except that Lucien stands like a rock of support for her. Thank you for making Thun unforgettable!

TaiwanIt's an old department. A little noisy when someone walks. There's no elevator. The washroom is small and share. However, alles gute!😉
It's in old town. Very special. The owner is very friendly. I arrived earlier but she tried to assist me and all the time. Thanks so much for help. It provides kitchen and you can cook here. It provides traffic card, too and you can take bus for free. You get the card even before you arrive. Good to eat breakfast in a garden. Enjoy it. The best one is electric fan! So comfortable.

United KingdomNothing.
Muna and Lucien were perfect hosts. I was due to arrive later than the specified check-in times, but they said that was no problem. Then my train was delayed an hour. Lucien was at the front door to greet me as I arrived at 22:40 and carried my heavy suitcase up 7 flights of stairs. (Don't stay here if you struggle with stairs. It's 8 stories high). Their place is an old narrow tall shop in the middle of the old town - full of character. It's a minute's walk from the river-side with lots of bars and restaurants - very lively. I woke up to a stunning view of the Stockhorn over the roofs of the old town. I had to leave early to catch a train and they provided an excellent breakfast at 7am. Nothing was too much trouble. I would love to visit again.
