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.).

United KingdomOur room wasn't cleaned every day as we wanted to and there was a funny smell in the whole of the hotel, breakfast didn't seem fresh.
The location is amazing and the views are great, just minutes away from the stadium which was very convenient.

FinlandHotel seems to be past of its heyday as customers seem to prefer newer hotels in nearby sports resort Vuokatti. Surfaces are worn out. Rooms are old fashioned, least to say. Some details are amusing, for example room was equipped with rather old tube tv and adjacent empty building looked like B-class horror movie setting. Some details however need urgent attention: toilet seat of our room was patched with tape and the wc door was broken. This is a matter of preference, but I found the bed quite uncomfortable. It was difficult to get sleep on hard bed.
Reasonably good breakfast. Good central location in Sotkamo next to beach, pesäpallo-stadium and all other services. Location on a hill is also quite beautiful. Good space for parking. You cannot complain about the price for two people.

Poland- no kettle in the room, - no option to control the temperature so it was a little bit cold inside but you can go to the bathroom and it's way warmer there, - strange smell in the hallway but nothing dramatic or annoying, - old furniture and old design of the hotel and rooms, - weak Wi-Fi, - old and non working TV, - when I was checking in the receptions working hours were different, I got my room at the time I needed it but didn't get the info that it's possible as a reply to my request send the day before.
- close to the shops and gas station, - the size of the room is more than enough for one person, - a lot of space for the luggage, - small fridge inside the desk, - good breakfast with many options (worm and cold) but just one option for hot beverage (not so good coffee), - very helpful receptionist.

FinlandEverything is as old as it can be. You can feel the springs on the beds. They advertise a pool that after all has no water, with the excuse of a nice lake that “maybe” you can go swimming as it’s not warm yet. Saunas are only in the evenings, so if you are an early bird, no chance. Breakfast was bad, some dishes unrecognizable. No glasses on the toilet for drinking water. Price is completely outrageous for the quality of what they offer. For a comparison, for 100e more we are staying tonight in a junior suit of a hotel with a nice (working) spa.
Location, we needed a place for the night and had to make almost whatever work.

United KingdomNothing not to like.
We have stayed here many a time, they always treat us like we were part of the family, friendly and unassuming. Location is spot on in the vicinity of the town and fabulous beach, sauna piping hot for the weary traveller. Also beautiful pine forest around the property that gives out dizzying scents and heavenly silence.

FinlandI didn't dislike but must say that the breakfast was more of a quantity, rather than quality, an average level. No air conditioning but this is usually not a problem.
Great location and super price-quality ratio. I even like their old fashioned, outdated style. Awesome beach and nature for long walks and the village is close-by. Lovely couple managing the property. The greatest sport ever, Finnish baseball is played 'next door', worth visiting - see Sotkamon Jymy (the club) and Hiukan pesäpallostadion (the venue).

FinlandNo Room cleaning during the stay. A better ventilation system would have made sense, as with 3 dogs in room it got very hot. Because of the moskitos and weather it was not even possible to open the door.
Great location for dog owners, walk your pet straight outside the room in forest and on the beautiful beach. Although there was just a handful of guests, everything was perfect and friendly.
