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.).

BrazilThe place on the red light street and it wasn’t clear for me. It felt both strange and threatening walking around in the evening. If you don’t mind this kind of location and environment, okay. But if you are a couple wiling to relax and have nice moments, definitely I do not recommend. The sex workers try to catch your partner as soon as they are alone. Uncomfortable
We arrived later than the instructions and I did not manage to tell in advance, but the staff was understanding. The place was clean and seemed to be recently refurbished.

NetherlandsMatrasses are an easy fix! Sound can't really be fixed, but overall the noise of our fellow guests wasn't too bad, I slept well. I'd ve wished for a common area to hang out with other travellers.
Check in was done by a very friendly receptionist who had emailed us because we were late, so we knew what to do. We managed to catch him just as he was leaving so he helped us even though his shift had ended and he was very friendly. The location was excellent, right in the heart of the red light district but in a courtyard so we didn't hear the 24/7 music. Hygiene was good, matrasses were a bit stiff and walls a bit thin, but overall we slept comfortably.

GermanyA lamp or two by the bedside would be nice. A chance to fixate the shower head above was missing. Some repair to the handle at the front door should be done. Noise from water running through pipes was a little irritating.
We were situated in the centre of St. Pauli within easy reach of the Reeperbahn and the harbour. Though in the eye of the storm party-wise, we had a fairly quiet night rest, as the house is located in a back yard, and our stay wasn't during a weekend.

RomaniaI wouldn't recommend this place for a family trip. It's in a very loud district with night life and adult entertainment. The bathroom was minuscule and it lacked shampoo and toilet paper. The reception is in another building and the staff wasn't speaking English.
The location was pretty decent. You can arrive easily in the city center with public transportation. Repperbahn is a fun place for young or night-life persons. The room was clean.

Netherlandsit wasn’t quite as nice as the photos told us it would be. it was really small and not super clean. and I had to make some kind of improvised knot in my charger to hang my phone up on the wall and charge since there were no charging points next to the bed
it was close to a parking garage and when you walked out of the apartment you were in the middle of a busy part of the city.

RwandaThe host gave me no instructions on how to arrive at the hostel. When I called the number in the booking, I was told to go to another place to pick up the keys. As I was confused and tired after traveling for 24 hours, I simply didn't know where exactly to go so I tried to call the number again, but they never picked up. I went to a nearby hotel to ask for help, where a friendly lady assisted me and called the host again. The host picked up her call and she was able to direct me to the correct place. After I picked up the keys and got into the room, I wanted to use the wifi, but I had not been given the password. I tried to call the host who once again ignored my calls. Not only had I wasted time wandering around and looking for the hostel, but I was also stranded without access to the internet.... Not a nice experience I can say.
The room was tidy and comfortable

GermanyThe accommodation is just above a club, so during the weekend you won't get any sleep. My bad on this one for not checking reviews beforehand. Also, if you're unaware of the area (St. Pauli), definitely do your research first. You will see a lot of "interesting" stuff on these streets. Also, the bedsheets felt very used, and not super clean. The room was pretty small, looks much better in the pictures.
The price is pretty good for Hamburg. But only consider this accommodation if you're going partying. Read the reasons below. The staff was super friendly. But I really couldn't find any more positive points.

United StatesThe location is directly above a bar, like you have to walk through bar tables to get to the entrance. If you’re out partying until 6 am like everyone else I’m sure it would be fine for you. I would definitely not stay here as a single woman.
