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 KingdomI've never been in such a bad smelling Booking before. The cost of 150£ for a night for 3 people on those conditions is absolutely outrageous. The smoking smoke and smell was so intense as well it was hard to breathe
The only positive aspect was the location even though you have the street noise as it was advertised

United KingdomThe room was very dirty. It was completely different to the images on the website. The windows were partially boarded up and weren't well insulated so the room was freezing. The radiator also didn't work. The carpets were stained, cracked ceiling, wonky furniture.
Comfy bed and good location.

United KingdomThe room was awful, room 14s walls were filthy as was the bathroom, the windows had an awful draft. Room 1 was slightly better the walls were dirty but weren't as bad as room 14, the drawer wasn't attached in the set of drawers, and the bedside tables weren't stable, the bathroom had no soap in it and the window was boarded up. There was rubbish stuffed in one of the drawers in room 1.
The location was decent walking distance from shops and bars and restaurants.

United KingdomMould in shower and bathrooms. (Mould spray is only £3 from the shop, why can’t this be fixed?) Glue mouse traps in the rooms armed with a wotsit (crisp). (Not only inhumane - I accidentally stood on one!) There was no key in the lockbox outside our 3 person room. We were offered two different rooms instead. There’s no staff available and also no phone number. I had to stand outside the room for an hour waiting for a response on booking.com. You don’t always have hot water.
Beds were comfortable. No staff to complain about being noisy after a night out. Would compare to run down student housing but with clean sheets. I do not recommend unless you only want a cheap place to sleep.

United Kingdom3 flights of stairs not suitable for elderly people. No such thing as view , stated maybe noisy as in bustling area. Instead of noise we had the constant smell of the Indian restaurant below. Filthy carpets , no side lights ( socket not working) damp patch in the corner, rusty shower rail and windows
Apart from location , nothing else , didn’t realise it really was a very very basic and tired hostel

United KingdomThe room is in horrible condition, with parts of the ceiling falling down, and signs of water damage on the carpet and walls, the bathroom door not closing properly. The building needs a renovation ASAP. Definitely did not get the advertised sea view, the window opened to the alley next to the Indian restaurant, which was quite smelly.

United KingdomOnly 1 double socket in the room which was at skirting board level, half way along the bed and nowhere near the table, so you have to move the bed to use the socket e.g. boil the kettle. Pokey little shower sprayed outwards everywhere except on me. Horrible black lino in the bathroom lifting in places. Carpet not clean, window covered in the remains of an adhesive film, and it doesn't close properly. The smell from Burger King below wafts up into the room. Noise all night from people emptying bins etc below. Narrow and steep stairs up to my room (room No12).
It had a bed.
