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.).

The room was a bit uncomfortable. It’s clear that it’s ibis Budget, but I was expecting it to be a bit better. Other than that, the breakfast was a bit poor. I was expecting more choice. We paid 15CHF each and all we had as options were bread, jam, yogurt, cereals, coffee, juices and hard boiled eggs. Just don’t think it was worth the 15CHF
Very nice customer service, super kind personnel

There was no USB adapter in the room and I had to go down and ask for one. A simple inconvenience but an adapter was provided!
Staff was nice and the 24 hour check out came in handy when I had to leave at 4:00am to catch a flight.

Minimum requirements like electric water heater for tea or coffee making. No cutlery. Many Indian tourists don’t eat non veg. For them above facilities are must for making Indian vegan meals at room.
Breakfast is good. Location is good. And near my zhurich central location

The bathroom door is not sound blocking at all. The shower is a glass door, so if traveling with children be aware you can see in.
Rooms, while very small, were well laid out. Internet worked very well. The location, close to a major secondary train station, was extremely convenient for getting around the city.

The room size seemed small for 3 of us with out luggage. Apart from that everything is good
The location is just opposite to Technopark tram station and within few minutes you can reach the main station. The rooms were clean. There’s a reading light.

-No smoking area.. had to go to Novotel side -Toilets are made for people with super long legs ...felt like a dwarf on the throne...🤣 I am 167 cm tall and legs are quite proportional to the body length -no drinking cups or glasses,only for tooth brushes - bed has way too thin matrase on it..at least feels like that -Hangers for clothes are super tough to use...Stender should be at least placed parallel to the person (guest)not perpendicular what makes it difficult to get a jacket or blouse placed at the end of that Stander -complementary water or even water to buy could be placed in the room -body lotion at least the cheapest one could be a good idea.. -took me a time to figure out how to turn off light around bed area...I thought at the begining it is only around the sink...luckily I figured out it is also above the bed -Reception stuff are friendly but some( sorry one) female employee should take care of her grooming...I recognized it during my previous stay...not this time...short nails,or with manicure or whatever..but not the mix of both...three long fake nails and two broken..on each hand..no go for.Receptionist as well as hostesses, hosts or concierge .They are "Face of the Hotel" and should be "gefflegt". ❤️
-Next door to my work and next to the city center. -great area to stay it has everything in the neighbourhood and all the same time quite quiet...no party's next door,on the streets or around the building -very clean rooms -Cheap and has everything you need for a short stay... -Opportunity to visit Novotel next door for good food,long drinks,cool garden and extremely friendly personal -Surprisingly good breakfast buffet ,clean and friendly serving personal -Friendly African or Afro-American cleaning Lady with the good humor and charisma
