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 KingdomIt would be a good idea to provide eggs, at least boiled eggs for breakfast.
A very spacious roo, with a wardrobe, sink in room, small fridge. Lovely fellow room mates. Clean toilets. Even a comfortable lift as it was on the 3rd floor.

United KingdomIt's a difficult one, they Operated for a good cause but the place was dirty, the rooms precisely., fridge has not been cleaned in ages, lots of dust on shelf and drawer. Like l said a good cause let down by the cost of operation perhaps. Some people have lived there 1 year and there's a woman l heard has been there 15 years. Cheaper than paying rent and like l said a good cause so l have not marked them down. Thank you.

LithuaniaThe staff; not everyone, but still no sense of responsibility and minimum respect. I was misled about breakfast time by ONE HOUR; and even though I arrived and everything was ready without any apology they hustled told me to wait for my turn to eat after the staff, though no people were present; in the kitchen area there is tea, coffee, even a kettle but not a single cup or glass if you arrive before breakfast or in the evening. Tiny details but such negligence and attitude is probably chosen not to attract paying visitors but deter them.
I have truly dubious thoughts about this stay as it all depends on who you share the room with.(I was lucky);the location is amazing, the room and shower facilities good enough for a short stay as it is a student dormitory and you may share it with long term residents.

ItalyThe state of the rooms were almost like university college condition, a lot of the doors were locked such as microwave room for the night, bathrooms were very few on the ground floor and not in great condition. I preferred sleeping in bunk beds with curtain and a sharing bathroom more than sharing bathroom with the floor. In general the building smelled unpleasant too.
I liked the fact that the rooms were in separate beds, very big room and closet space and desk table. I liked the easiness of check in and check out, using electronic card to enter the building and also the hallway which felt extra secure

EgyptThe bed wasn't very comfortable, and the cleaning people only came in to empty the trash without any further cleaning. There was no clear assignment of the closets or safe boxes, so I found someone's stuff in mine afterwards.
Convenient location if you're using the Victoria coach station. Spacious room, but small beds.

ItalyI was on the last floor (the 4th) and I really couldn’t manage to use the lift (I don’t know if it was broken). Even though the breakfast was free, which is very nice, you just can have bread with marmalade or cornflakes with milk (coffee and tea too).
It’s in a really nice and good position, rooms are spacious and well lighted. The staff is nice. Good price since the location.
