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.).

Everything was perfect
Kiki and Rolf are wonderful hosts! They're quick to respond to messages and very accommodating. The location is easy to find, close to the cable car/tram (14 or 8 2 more blocks away) and bus stops (30), and on a quieter side street. We were able to keep our window open day and night without any noise issues, even with construction down the street. It's easy to get into the old town via cable car/tram and even travel to the border (France and Germany) on the 8 tram close by. There are also some restaurants on the corners of the local street open for dinner (Thai, pizza, Sri lanka) and a grocery store 2 blocks away. The room is well appointed with a TV, minimal cost mini bar/ refrigerator, and items to make instant coffee and tea and water (free). There is a large double bed and single bed to the side, a desk, coat rack, closet and dresser. We found the beds comfortable and slept very well. Many outlets and even a double USB connector to charge items. The bathroom is spacious and very clean. Everything was so clean and there was extra bedding items in the closet and extra towels in the bathroom cabinet. Breakfast was the real star of our week stay. We enjoyed seeing what Kiki set up for us each morning, items included bread, cheese, fruit, yogurt, boiled egg, coffee, tea, juice, and pastries (we're vegetarian). Breakfast was in the kitchen. Seeing that we'd bought a bottle of wine, Kiki even left us wine glasses to use in our room. Kiki and Rolf also provided some toys for our toddler to play with, as well as set up a baby seat at the table for him. We can't say enough good things about our stay! They had recommendations for us when we asked, but otherwise, gave us our privacy. They even left us some chocolates our first morning and a treat at the end of our stay for my birthday. We felt like we were coming home every evening we returned and would definitely stay here again.

The hosts were super friendly. The place, while small, is cute and private. The absolute highlight is the breakfast, which was phenomenal to the point where you feel sad you can't eat everything.

Rolf and Kiki are excellent hosts, helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good and their back garden is lovely. The location is convenient to docking locations for river boats.

The breakfast was beautifully laid out and was delicious. Kiki and Rolf were delightful people and there were many extra little touches. The back yard was very welcoming to relax and enjoy a little happy hour. The room was very roomy and comfortable. We were greeted with the biggest smile from both Rolf & Kiki.

The bathroom, although private, is actually outside the bedroom, rather than en suite.
Location next to the convention center, easily accessible via public transport.
