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.).

GermanyBeautiful and cosy stay in the south of Marseille. Very green and quiet location with bus station next to it. The host is very friendly, gave us tips for hiking in the Calanques and the breakfast is delicious with home made food and fresh fruits. We loved to stay here.

United KingdomNothing could have been better.
The breakfasts involved fresh local produce and cheeses, which we ate in the open air breakfast area. Each day was a different breakfast made in front of us. There was always a supply of bread to toast on demand and at least four different "jams", all made with local produce.

JapanThere is no air conditioning, so you need to be patient with the heat.
In the lounge, you can listen to music and there was also a piano. It was a very luxurious space. The room and bed were also clean and comfortable. The host took a ticket for the ship instead of me, whose English is ambiguous. He is a friendly, kind and reassuring host.

TurkeyWe love everything about GinKgo. Owners of the place were very nice. Room was very clean. We were planning to spend most of our time in city center. But GinKgo was so perfect and we forgot to spend time in city center. Even we went to city center, we wanted to go back to GinKgo. Breakfast was delicious. Everything comes from garden to your plate. It is impossible to find you don’t like with this place. Also there are two more owners who are fluffy and named Mojo and Ohara. You will love them when they welcome you with their wiggling tails.

FranceReally friendly, cool, simple & quiet surrounding in an old comfortable house surrounded by a big garden in the middle of town. Interesting staff. Tasty breakfast with home made jams, interesting herb teas, the owner has flair for vegan cooking, apricot tarts... Perfect for resting after a long drive, very good location not far from the sea, from town & the autoroutes. It is our second visit & hopefully not the last.

SwitzerlandHonestly, we liked staying here. It wasn't what one would expect, but it was a groovy place to stay.
We liked everything about the place. It's a bit outside of Marseille (about 15 minutes) This place is special, meaning it's not fancy, its natural. The garden is the main attraction. It's like a well maintained jungle. Like a refuge from the city. The host is super easy and cool, and nothing is a problem. The house is lovely, and there is great music playing adding to the atmosphere. It reminded me of a super hip commune. All chill and relaxed. Beautiful place to stay if you don't like the hustle of the city. If you ring the bell and no one answers, call him, he comes right away.

GermanyThe property is amazing but needs some improvements here and there. The shower is not practical as it is not fixed to the wall and we had to hold it while we bath. Wifi was not the fastest one but we also did not use it that much.
The breakfast is lovely prepared and served with the best quality and fresh ingredients like the tea. The herbs are collected directly from their garden and she prepared fresh organic tea for us every day. It was a delicious tea mix with new taste every day. The garden is actually their amazing source of medicinal plants of all sorts. The cafe area is surrounded by plants and trees, a little paradise where a family of parrots love to live. The owners were extremely friendly and attentious and we had everything we needed from their bar: wine, honey, dry leaves to prepare tea, a toaster and self-made peanut cookies. You may also use the fridge if you wish to storage the food you bring. They provided us great information about the Calanques area, activities and restaurants, and even about botanicals. Their dogs are lovely and respectful. We really enjoyed our stay!

United KingdomGinKgos is a beautiful rustic guest house with a home stay feel, the decor is fun, engaging and eclectic. The added touches such as the homemade fare and the warm hosts (including the two lovely dogs) make this a must stay. The breakfast was the best yet we’ve had in France and made more special by the personal touch. Would recommend to all friends passing through.
