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 KingdomIf you bear in mind what I have said above .. nothing!
I have overnighted at Relais de Barbezieux many, many times. It is important to remember that first and foremost it is a Truckers' Stop, a superb one. It represents very good value for money as long as you are not looking for a four-star hotel.

United KingdomThe room was very basic and a bit gloomy but spotlessly clean and cotton sheets. For an overnight stop we couldn't fault it.
Perfect stopover on our journey South as just off the N10. Spotlessly clean room, excellent shower and comfortable bed. Good evening meal with buffet starters and choice of several mains. Excellent breakfast. Token system for wine - a new one for us but wine perfectly acceptable. No road noise and air conditioning an absolute godsend as we were travelling in a heatwave. The restaurant was busy and pleasant..

SpainThe Relais de Barbezieux has a very large lorry park and caters for truck drivers. However, there is also an accommodation block for motorists, which features small, but usable, ensuite rooms. It is a convenient stopping point when travelling through France, which we shall probably use again

United StatesAbsolutely typical truck stop hotel with dining and convenience store downstairs. Very suitable for a highway overnight but not much more. Nothing aesthetic or resort-like. Reasonable but not bargain priced, 50€ for 2 in late March. Free parking. Quiet room despite truck stop.

It's just off the N10, so very convenient when travelling. Clean, comfy, with a decent meal.

United Kingdom1. The price shown on Booking.com clearly states “includes taxes” yet when you arrive, they add additional taxes. booking.com were excellent and kindly refunded the money, but the staff were aggressive and dismissive. 2. It is just a truckstop, there is nothing there. 3. The bed slopes into the centre making sleep for a couple for a difficult, the shower holder was broken, could not be raised. 4. The address they gave does not work on Google Maps. Google Maps takes you to the other side of a dual carriageway. Useless.
