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.).

RomaniaNothing really important, maybe just bit more adapting to customer requests at breakfast (they had a very good breakfast and also offered scrambled eggs, we asked however for fried eggs instead but they were unable to provide it even though it should be a normal breakfast request)
Very clean, great location right close to the center, good food as well inside the inn which was beautiful and traditionally rustic decorated. One of the waitresses in the restaurant was as well extremely polite.

Germany- The room was amazing. It was on the second floor of an old building. The first floor is a restaurant and you feel like a traveller in the Middle Ages, eating in a tavern and then sleeping upstairs. But this time with modern comforts. - Super friendly and nice owners. - The location is great.

United StatesThe super old building has very crooked floors, but they didn’t bother us much. Thick walls meant WiFi was spotty.
The location is fantastic. We had the family room and another room on top level for a family of 6. The listing said they were double beds but they were actually the size of American King beds. It was very clean. The restaurant is the main business and it smelled fantastic. We ate there our last night and it was the best meal we had in Germany! Delicious!

United StatesNo one will sneak up the stairs - they are very creaky! Wasnt a big issue for us since there are not too many guest rooms that would create a lot of coming and going. The floor in our room was creaky too but you will learn which boards to step on! Our room was above the restaurant but we did not hear the diners. Cooking food smells do permeate the common area but did not enter our guest room. Took us a little while to get the room heating right but that is because we are used to numerical thermostats.
Very charming old world accommodations that complimented our Rothenburg stay. Did not hear guests in other rooms. Clean and just off the main street so no outside noise. Close to the Christmas market. Rooms have all the typical amenities. Owners are very responsive and easy to contact.

I liked that it was right in town within walking distance to everything. It had breakfast available. It was a really cute hotel that was part of the traditional part of the town, and had very authentic and cultural decor. The staff were very accommodating and kind. You could definitely feel the history of the building, which to me was a bonus.

The place was stunning both inside and out - and the restaurant was well worth visiting during your stay for dinner - the food was incredible with very generous portions. The room itself was a bargain for the comfort, cleanliness and location. I would 100% stay here again if I was ever in town.

AustraliaWe had heavy luggage and was a mission getting it up the stairs.
Loved the decor and that feeling of stepping back in time (with some modern comforts of course). If you wanted a quiet and unnoticed entrance and exit of your room - that is not possible, as the stairs creak so loudly! Added to the charm in my opinion. Breakfast was €10 and well worth it. Coffee, juice, selection of fruit, breads, meats, eggs, yoghurt etc. Very popular with dinner guests also - make a reservation or you may not get a table.

CanadaThe stairs were very squeaky and the floors were quite uneven in my room. It would have been nicer to have the mirror in the bathroom up another 6 inches. I had to bend down to put make up on, or just to see my face and I’m not overly tall 5’8’’. That being said though, it was VERY clean and extremely quaint - a really great spot and I would happily go there again. AND!!!!! The breakfast was out of this world - both in presentation and in taste! Bravo!
It was quaint and very welcoming.

Hong KongTimber floor is a bit flappy that every step will make a sound. Not a problem for me, but maybe a problem for peoples under my floor. Luckily it is the restaurant below my room.
A traditional building converted to guesthouse. Although hardware is old, but the heart is cosy and warm. A stay with nice ambiance and lively history. Location reasonably close to all attractions, and yet off from main traffic and crowds, therefore pretty quiet. Staff are friendly. Very popular restaurant on the ground floor of the guesthouse. Need to reserve for a table. Breakfast with good choices.
