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.).

FinlandStayed more then 5 times at the Greenstar Hotel. Last 2 times seen decrease in food quality. Scrambled eggs. Looks like a block of light yellow custard. Taste is nice. Pancakes were OK but almost cold. The worst thing is there are no trays to transport your plates with food on. It took me more than 5 times back and forth to the breakfast bar before I sat down to eat. We queried why trays were no longer available and were told it was the management who took this decision. Not good ... I have noticed jam in jars at breakfast bar but no label of contents .... What if one is allergic to certain fruits? I asked but staff were unsure. It turned out to be strawberry. Smoothy bar has a container labelled mixed Berry fruits (delicious). But please think about mentioning which berries...some people are allergic to strawberries.. I mean the margarine is clearly labelled wether gluten free or milk free There is a note on the tables asking guests to return their used plates etc. It was so much easier when there were trays. Breakfast is €12 which is a fair price. But please bring back the trays...
The rooms are basic but always clean. Shower and wc extremely clean. Always enjoy the stay in hotel. Friendly staff. Helpful. Breakfast cheese and meats Hot drinks coffee and or tea Cold drinks water, lemonade and orange juice Smoothy bar with fresh fruits Separate bowls of different nuts Porridge Hot food sausages, scrambled eggs and pancakes

I really love the welcome and all the questions that I had get answers. The personnel are here anytime you want, and that is really much appreciated. The place is also close to the train station and that's also really good.

FinlandThe bathroom smelled a bit during our stay (although I want to underline that it was very clean), but since everything else was just fine, it didn't really bother us.
The staff were nice and the the room was very clean. Breakfast was pretty good, but nothing spectacular. Garage parking was available for an extra fee. Overall, the hotel had very good value for money.

Finland- Minimal services and amenities - Breakfast should be an option with lower prices when making reservation - Small pillows. Need to ask in advance to have extras - I asked for a king-size bed, but instead they still gave double beds. No idea whether they it or not
- The location was remarkably in the centre, everything (stores, restaurants, shopping centres etc) was walking distance. - Breakfast was good, room was clean, staffs were friendly

FinlandAn option of cheaper rate of breakfast would be much better when making reservation in advance, instead of paying at hotel.
1) It's a just and ordinary hotel. The room was okay, it was clean and tidy. 2) The location was great, very close to the city center where shops, cafes and restaurant were around. 3) They provided extra pillows as we requested before.
