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.).

BulgariaOne of the panels of the shower room was very unstable and dangerous. We had to be very careful with it so it wouldn't fall and break.
Our room was clean and comfy and the location is great - right in the heart of the Old town. We had no problems checking in and communication with the hosts was easy.

United KingdomI didn't like that I got repeated emails before arriving, hassling me to check in online, which I find a bind to do on my phone. I did realise before we got to Bilbao, and it was made very obvious on arrival that there is no visible staff - pin numbers for access, no front desk, keycards left in an envelope for me, and we actually came to accept this. So if thats how they run it, and they provide such comfortable facilities so well situated and looked after (we did see a cleaner) then fine by me! I'll check in online no problem.
Brilliant situation right in the thick of the Casco Viejo, great for exploring Bilbao on foot. Close to the cathedral, lovely riverside prom to the Guggenheim, fantastic old grand buildings, busy centre, good food, and 7 Kale is a great base. It has the most lovely polished wooden staircase and big front doors, and inside is tasteful clean and comfy. Verandas, views down narrow streets but quiet.

United StatesWhen booking for this room,it was not made clear to us that "bed and breakfast "is synonymous with hostel. That's important to know, since they have specific rules to follow. The breakfast was just barely adequate. I understand what a continental breakfast is,nevertheless there could have been a little more 'food' on the table-inexpensive food such as oatmeal,raisens,more fruit,a few hard boiled eggs wouldn't have hurt.It seemed 7 kale was doing it on the cheap.Hostels are usually known for their creative breakfasts.
The location was everything. The facilities clean.

NetherlandsThe room blocks noise from the street but not from within the building. Could hear other people’s alarms in the morning, and a guy at night calling his friend to let him in to the room. Of other people behave it’s a good spot, if not then you can use the earplugs that are provided in the bathroom
Great location, clean, good water pressure in the shower

United KingdomThe noise!! Seriously , would give this place 10 if it wasn’t for the appalling noise at night. Not from outside, as you can shut the window, but from inside with people coming in late, banging in doors, and the couple in the next room having massive rows. Shouting in the corridors until 2am. Even the ear plugs,which were kindly proved, didn’t block it out. We left exhausted after 2 broken nights.
Very clean, nice room, comfy beds. Lovely to have tea of all varieties and coffee maker. Shower was good. Self check in went well. Nice location. Room bigger than expected.

United KingdomThe internet didn't work all the time whilst out and about, so couldn't rely on google maps all the time.
I was on a room only basis and travelled in March. The property is in the heart of the old city, brililant location, only a tram ride to the Guggenheim. Pintxos bars every where and Plaza nueva excellent for eating. I travelled on my own and didn't feel uncomfortable or worried at any time. The room was very clean and fine for me. If I was travelling with a larger companion I might have requested a more spacious room but I wasn't so my room was perfect. I had a small balcony overlooking Casco Vieja. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Id go again, it was a great vacaciones.

United KingdomDidn’t have contact with any staff during our stay which felt quite impersonal. Breakfast wasn’t included when booking via Booking.com (which we knew), and had to be ordered the day before, which meant we couldn’t have any on our first morning there. Tried the TV but got a ‘No Signal’ message on all inputs.
Great location in old town. Comfortable room.

SpainGreat location in the heart of the Casco Viejo and within easy walking distance of plenty of bars, restaurants, shops etc. There is quite a bit of street noise, but the double glazing blocks it all out. The rooms are stylish, Scandi-chic with white tones and warm wood. The bathroom had everything you need (including shaving and toothbrush kits in case you forgot them! Check in is done online before you arrive and once at the hotel we didn´t meet anybody, but that was fine. Definitely recommended!

United StatesOne downfall was the elevator was broken and we were located on the fourth floor it was also a weekend so it was not fixed the whole time we were there. We can't blame the hotel but no fourth floor elevator the whole weekend was an inconvenience.
Beautifully remodeled rooms, the beds were very comfortable and the room had all the amenities we needed.
