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.).

AustriaConsidering size of the room, a desk could be a bit bigger, with more power outlets. Sound isolation of rooms is very poor - I could hear neigbours every word although they weren’t loud at all.
Solid location in walking distance from public transport and city centre, big rooms and comfortable bed.

We liked the staff! The staff allowed us to leave our luggage for free after checking in. The bedroom was comfortable and had a private bathroom. The host also facilitated our arrival as we checked in very late.

United KingdomAs above. Some of the furnishings could have been better and definitely with more drawer space. No drawers at all in the room. We stayed Monday to Saturday and the towels eventually got changed on Thursday. I had hoped for sooner.
The location was excellent and the continental breakfast was great value for money. The room was comfortable if a little tired - old carpet and old stains on wooden furniture.Nonetheless a good budget hotel in a central part of the city.

Good location, quiet. Not the most fancy hotel, old, but the price was in line with that. The room was very well cleaned and tidy. Internet worked well for my needs. Good to stay for a couple of days in Berlin if you are out for a budget hotel.

United KingdomThe decor may be authentic DDR which made the room look very unpleasant at first but in reality it was very clean and comfortable and good for the price. The coffee making facilities were in a communal space outside the room and I would have liked a private kettle but there was a fridge in the room which was useful.
The location was excellent, a few minutes walk from an S-bahn station, a U-bahn station, multiple tram lines with an easy connection to the main railway station. The room was a good size with a high ceiling and a fully opening window that made it very airy. The room was very clean and staff were friendly.
