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.).

Czech RepublicSometimes it gets noisy, morning when they start serving breakfast, sometimes people arriving and leaving at night and when they walk the wooden stairs is really noisy. Breakfast is every day the same, getting boring after a few days.
Very helpful staff, place is in nice colonial house. Walking distance to everywhere, close to tram station. Most of the time is quiet.

AustraliaBecause it’s in an old building and built around a central courtyard, noise carries. But they do have a strict curfew - at 10 each night, the TV goes off and the lights downstairs go out.
Great location. Good-sized, nicely decorated room that was cleaned daily. You could refill your water bottle.

NetherlandsThe room was very dark as all of the windows faced inwards. I had one window but people couold see directly in when walking past so I kept the curtain closed
I only stayed here for one night and the hotel met my needs, it was comfortable with great wifi, the staff were super friendly and the breakfast was good. The hotel was a very short walk form the square and tram to the airport which was a great bonus! TIP: Make sure you get he tram which is only a dollar and 3 min walk to the hotel :)

United StatesBathroom was kind of dark. Hot, brewed local coffee would be welcome. Did not appreciate random TV shows or movies on for breakfast. Maybe soft music videos would be a better choice.
Breakfast was tasty, made fresh for each guest. I think the coffee is instant but surprisingly good, not always real hot. The hotel has charming architecture and decor. It fits the location in the historic El Centro District which is fabulous. Most rooms open to the inner court yard so morning sounds can be heard. I upgraded to a street side room and stayed a week. This afforded me an outside balcony door and street noises which I welcomed. Staff was always kind and welcoming. I will be back!

The staff was incredible. They were very friendly and attentive. The breakfast was nice and there is free coffee/tea/water refills. The inner dining courtyard is lovely and the hotel is only a few minutes’ walk from the main square and Cathedral. We extended our stay from 2 to 4 nights because the value for money is excellent compared to some other hotels in Cuenca. Cuenca itself is a beautiful city and well worth exploring.

United StatesThe bigger room was facing the street which made it very noisy. Also the curtains were so thin that they did not block out the lights from outside.
I was moved to a bigger, nicer room which was unexpected.

CanadaNoisy, sounds echoed everywhere. We booked a queen room and got a room with three small beds, awkward for a couple. Beds hard and uncomfortable. Breakfast rather limited.
Absolutely charming old building with a courtyard, historical details everywhere. Good location right in the historical centre. Big rooms.

CanadaWe booked a ''balcony with city views'' room with 2 double beds, but were given a small windowless room with 2 single beds. When we brought this to the hotel's attention and showed them the booking.com reservation they said that's not what they could see on their end. Eventually they moved us to a bigger room with a window, but seemed annoyed about it. This room had a motion sensor light near the bathroom that could not be deactivated, and would turn on in the night anytime the person in the bed closer to the bathroom rolled over. Beds were like rocks.

United KingdomBooking.com rates this hotel as exceptional and 10 out of 10 rating. This was the main reason why I booked it in the first place. The photos are misleading because the hotel in real life is not as shown on the photos. We booked two rooms with double beds. One of them seemed to be fine and all in working order, but the other room didn't meet the same standards: loose curtain frames, very old balcony doors which failed to keep the noise and even the fumes of the vehicles out; the ventilation fan in the bathroom kept falling off with filthy dust; the electric plugs by the bedside table were not working. All in all, it was a room that was NOT ready to be let out. This is the reason why I'd like to claim to Booking.com my money back for this room.
Very friendly staff.
