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.).

IndiaThe steps are somewhat steep, but manageable. It's better to book rooms at 1st floor only.
The behaviour of staff and the Owner "Rahulji" is very cooperative and friendly. They make the guests very-very comfortable. They took care of my family and specially my baby.

IndiaNothing as such. It’s very basic. But exactly how it looks in pictures.
The location is a plus. Though reaching there is tricky but the owner sent a person at Nandi chawk from where we walked. It’s better to take luggage easier for you to carry yourself while walking as it is quite a walk till the place. But very close to temple that we could go there twice in one night stay. Also, they allow to leave luggage if we have a flight later at night.

Denmarkas the property is situated in the middle of a huge “pedestrian “area of the old town, it is a bit challenging to find the place , but it is definitely worth it!
we stayed for 3 nights and it was the best guesthouse we tried in India: location - in the middle of the old town, next to Golden temple , close to the Ganga facilities - exactly as described, clean room,toilet and bed linen, the best hot shower in 2 months of travelling breakfast- delicious! staff- Rahul, his wife and their helpers are extremely warm, friendly, helpful .

Singaporefinding the guest house was a hassle. a least a precise map location would help.the lane known as gally are small and congested. It’s about 400 meters in from the main entrance, maneuvering with luggage through the narrow lane is a challenge. The stairs leading to the room is narrow and is not recommended for those with knee problems. occasional power outage with the soaring 42 degree temperature was unpleasant. The staff could have been more helpful in assisting us with our luggage and providing guidance to the guests house.
the room were reasonably clean and very near to the temple through gate no 2. easily accessible to the ghats (Ganges river bank). just outside the guest house there is the annapoorani trust where they offer free delicious food. of course a small donation would be good even though it’s not compulsory. Friendly atmosphere and helpful locals makes the stay pleasant.
