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 is NOT Cumberland Place. The staff on the phone are rude. The bathroom was shared and the property in poor condition. You'd be well advised to look elsewhere. Not only is the address misleading so are the pictures on their description.
Plenty of hot water in the SHARED shower.

New ZealandThe room was a mess, it was dirty, smelly and unclean. I was requested to sign a ‘form’ that the man simply hand wrote in front of me, very unprofessional. The blinds did not open or shut properly, nor did the window that looked out onto a lane where people sat and smoked - meaning that cigarette smell wafted into the room. The bed was not comfortable at all and smelled as though it had not been washed. The room was not in a situation I expected, rather it was in a dark flat. The shared bathroom was disgusting, so bad that I didn’t use it. It was completely unlike what the photos make it out to look like. Do not waste your money as I did and book here as you will be disappointed, and (as I ended up doing) will need to sort alternative accomodation immediately after arriving in London.

United KingdomThe place a dive, req some money spending, dirty a shower hanging off the wall, random cups and glasses, odd bits of cutlery and just a really drab room. Nothing like the pictures, oh and a microwave that makes a lot of noise but wouldn’t heat my baby’s milk if you left it on a week. I’d not normally write a review unless I thought somewhere was really good or sadly if something was blooming awful and this certainly was the later… to be avoided, unless serious improvements are made.

SpainImpossible to find by myself. They have a single person to handle everything, and he seems pretty overwhelmed. It was hard to contact him, he had to hang up on me several times and nothing looked well from the very behinning. The room is not clean, broken curtains, not sound proof at all, and the whole building is not well taken care of. People leave the main door open, which makes it quite unsafe.

LuxembourgIt's pretty much a scam. You expect to be hosted in a decent room and end up in hell. I would not recommend that to anybody, even if you're "on-budget". The host made me sign "a paper" that he wrote while being drunk or on drugs. Really difficult to communicate with the host over the phone. On-site, it's even worst. When I arrived, the host was smashing a t-shirt on a dusty fan, and was loudly clearing his throat every 3 seconds. There is no view. Please note that the bathroom is shared, and is really not clean. Don't look for toilet paper on the loo; there is none. Everything is dirty in this hotel. Ranging from the bathroom (that has probably never been cleaned) to the toilet. Special mention to the room in itself that has the dustiest sofa you'll ever find in your life. Extremely expensive for what it is. From far the worst hotel I've been sleeping in. The pictures are old (at least 10 years) and are not representative of what the room actually looks like.
I liked the fact that I just had to sleep for two nights. More than that would have been the mental breakdown. Sleeping in this room makes you feel dirty, since the whole hotel is dirty. You will have to share the bedroom and the toilet with other people, and the hotel lacks the most fundamental requirements to be considered as clean.
