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 KingdomThe AUDACITY of this hotel to put ‘shared kitchen’ as one of the facilities - do not under any circumstances book this place if you want to even prepare a sandwich, never mind cook, in the shared kitchen. The pots and pans haven’t been replaced since the 1870s, and the fridge had a bag of rotten food in it - so rotten it seemed it hadn’t been cleared out in months. The rooms were clean, however they were extremely old and tired, and smelled really strongly of damp/mould. We asked to move rooms after we were given one that smelled disgusting and didn’t match the photos of the room we had booked, we were shown two more, one worse (!!) than the initial one and one much much smaller (with just about space for a double bed), however didn’t smell as strongly of damp, so we took it. Having seen 3 rooms in total, none matched any of the photos shown on the listing, so be aware of that. It’s noisy - doesn’t usually bother me but you really can hear all the other guests full on conversations in the communal area when inside your room. We left a night early.

PortugalThe cleanliness of the place is unacceptable, and despite being moved to a different room by the receptionist, the new room also had poor cleanliness standards. Notably, there was a chewing gum stuck to the painting above the bed, indicating a lack of thorough cleaning.
The location only, but not worth it bearing in mind the poor condition of the accomodation.

Netherlands- we had a room street sided; it’s very noisy, the window (single glass) does not reduce any of the sounds from the streets (samba band played till 2am in front of the hotel) - there is a open connection between the hotel room and the hall (see pic), which makes it even more noisy - the interior of the room is not nicely finished; it looks very old, and could use an upgrade!
Location is perfect, in the middle of Getsemani, close to many bars / restaurants etc.

ItalyThe room was extremely small. No windows. We passed a terrible night, we couldn't breath due to the smell of mold and there was no air and the AC worked in a strange way. The walls were not real walls but a plastic structure so we listened all the rumors of the people coming and going all night long, at least till 4.30am! The staff however was so kind to invite people chatting loudly at the courtyard to leave.
Position, reception.service 24 hours and they kept our luggage after check out.

SwedenVery noisy and people trying to open your room in the night. Had to change room due to all the noise, but the supposed “more quiet” room was ever worse facing the street + no windows that could close. Felt like sleeping in a night club (I even asked for a quiet room and they confirmed when I did the reservation). The beds where so dirty, they tried to change the bed but most of the sheets in the locker was full of hair, crumbs and stains… also a lot of mold in both rooms, did not feel healthy also smelled very strong. Black hair all Over the bathroom floor
Great location tho and beautiful house with nice patio. Would work if you are planning to get drunk 24/7 and pass out in the night
