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.).

We had a lovely stay (few days) at Labib Guesthouse. The family is welcoming and lives in the same building. They were very responsive to our needs. The wifi is excellent (i could even upload my pictures easily) and the location on this side of the island is the best. You are 3 min walking from the fruit&vegetable&bread market. We had the chance to have a cooking class with the host. She comes and cooks with you in the apartment. She came with us do the groceries and then we cooked a vegetable tajine with the very nice nubian rice and salad (you can choose your recipe like camel meat, chicken, red meat or vegetable only) (the cooking time was 1 hour). Since you cook in the apartment, you eat at your table right after cooking. We had even enough for another meal! it was yummy. If we go back to elefantin, we will stay at Labib again.

The accommodation is located on the island of Elephantine which is a haven of peace, a real Nubian village in the heart of the city. Calmed down Authentic rural setting. Beautiful view on the Nile. Easy boat access (5LE (25cent) per person) Very kind and helpful owner. (We arrived quite late the first night: with his wife, they cooked us a delicious meal of fish and even did the grocery shopping for us). On arrival and departure he picked us up with his personal boat. I did not know it when booking, but the owner is also a felucca captain, so I had made other arrangements but I regret not having had time to take a felucca ride with him.

Czech RepublicLabib Guest House is great place where to stay in Aswan. We have a boat pick up near the ferry first day, so was super easy to find the place. The communication was excellent and we even can manage transfer of one forgotten thing from Aswan to Hurghada. Big thanks for that!
