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.).

Great view from our balcony of the flamingos on the lagoon. Worth booking this room. We were collected from the port and transport was arranged for us to the airport on departure.

EcuadorOur rooms were on the top floor, exhausting to go up every time (font forget anything in your room before going out). The first morning we had to leave early on a tour and despite we were told breakfast would be ready from 6-9am. It was 06h30am and the cook lady hadn't arrived yet and we left with just a cup of coffee and a piece of bread; no eggs, juice at all.
The pool helps a lot especially after a long Sierra Negra volcano tour. Our room was big enough, with closets, AC and WiFi. Breakfast was average.

SloveniaOur room 4 with balcony and look at lagoon was smelling very bad all the time. We couldn’t even open the doors or balcony. In our bathroom the water hose leaked so the bathroom floor was all the time very wet. The room floor was very dirty even though the room was cleaned.
Big room, good bed, delicious breakfast, location.

GermanyBecause it is all powered with solar panels if you want to shower later in the day you will need to wait, but it will get very hot in a little while.
The staff was super friendly, the hotel is quite new with spacious rooms and has nice views. The pool was clean and there were always fresh towels waiting for you. If you have an early activity or ferry they will give you a lunch box.

United KingdomBreakfast
Room was great for the location and the check in staff were lovely and very helpful. Breakfast was fine on our first morning and we could help ourselves to toast, eggs, juice etc, but after that it was brought to the table and it was a case of getting what was given to you! The shuttle bus to the port was good and although check out is 9am they allowed us to keep our room until 12. All in all a good place to stay on a lovely island.

GermanyThe room was not protected against any noise from outside or the other rooms. We woke up everyday at around 5 am because there was a crazy rooster in the neighbourhood crowing every 30 seconds from 4 am onwards. Breakfast was also really basic and not regularly refilled.
The hotel was close to the centre. Also the staff were really friendly and helpful, trying their best to help us arranging tours also on other islands.
