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.).

FranceThere was some confusions on the day before I arrived as I had originally been told I could arrive after clock in time, had to insist a bit to get help but got there in the end. Bathroom sink was blocked.
Room was small but more than enough for one person using the room just to sleep. Bed is really comfy! Quiet enough despite being a student place. Out of hours contact very quick at responding. Lovely place overall with amazing location!

United KingdomThe drain on my shower was blocked to the extent that it nearly flooded the bathroom after a few minutes use. Shower itself was powerful/warm enough. No bin or tumbler in the room, no hangers in wardrobe. My room was on the ground floor and you could hear occasional water running on the floor above which was a bit disconcerting - if it was in my house I'd have been running upstairs to check the basin hadn't overflowed! Also noise from other waste pipes coming down the inside of the wall from above. Keycard was awkward to use on the external door. At £90/night room only it wasn't the best value for the facilities provided.
Had to follow instructions on keypad to call a number for reception on the door keypad to get in. Once in though, key was ready with out of hours contact number if there were any problems. But limited check-in times and limited manned reception might be an issue for some. Room and communal areas appeared to be acceptably clean. Bed was comfy and had a good night's sleep. Location is just north of the city centre in a relatively quiet area. Europa bus station is about a 15-minute walk.

IrelandThe bed sheets and duvet cover clearly had not been changed when I arrived, lots of hairs and fluff and skin from the previous guest, When I pulled the duvet out from between the mattress and the wall there was some very disgusting looking dirt particles attached to the duvet. Also the fan in the bathroom was permanently on and very loud and rattled during the night.
The amenities were good, and the location was good, the rooms and kitchen had everything one would need

CanadaThe cleaners barely made a trip to the floor I was staying on and did not clean the ensuite area regularly, there seemed to be a lot of residue from previous guests in the ensuite despite cleaning up after oneself. The mix of student and travelers and lack of consistent cleanliness would deter me from going back.
The courteous staff who helped with luggage at the check in stage and there was a very nice British aft who was also very hospitable.

AustraliaOther people had left the kitchen dirty with rubbish and food scraps left on the benchtop. The range hoods above the cooking plates were not connected so cooking options were limited due to the possibility of setting off the fire alarm. The rubbish room was filthy and unpleasant to use. My access card did not work on the external door sometimes so I was locked out late at night until another guest arrived.
Light airy clean room with a fab view of the city and all the facilities you would expect in student accommodation. The paid Wi-Fi service was complimentary for the period of my stay, and fast and reliable. Great location and easy to walk to nightlife and shops and the city centre.

DenmarkReally feels like a student dorm! Not enough amenities for short stay traveller’s: no air dryer, no hangers in the wardrobe, no garbage can in the room…so on and so forth. The common areas (shared kitchen and lobby downstairs) were not cleaned by previous tenants, who left boxes and dirty dishes, and no cleaning staff attended to it over my 4 days stay… this can be overlooked (to a certain extent) for a budget accommodation, but for 170 euros a night, it is inacceptable. I feel like this place should not try to pass for a hotel if they are not willing to offer a better package to host short stay travelers. However, for a dorm (with cleaner flattâtes!), it seems great.
The place was clean and the bed comfortable, the common areas were nicely decorated. Internet worked well. The staff was nice, welcoming and helpful.
