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.).

NetherlandsGreat location up the side of a mountain. Perfect starting point for beautiful hikes. We didn’t bring food and the restaurant next door we thought would be open was closed, but that wasn’t a problem because the hostel’s kitchen comes with its own “mini market”. The pantry and fridge(s) are fully stocked for you to use for a delicious meal in return for a donation. The hosts are incredibly friendly and helpful and the overall atmosphere is very inviting and relaxed. Would come again!

EstoniaBecause of the room size the beds are bunk-beds, so on top of each other. Not an actual problem but just so you know beforehand.
Cicogna is not an easy place to reach, especially on foot. Village "at the end of the world", where road ends and hiking paths start. But oh, is it worth a go. I have stayed in many hostels but Ostello del Parco is special - from the first moment it felt like home. All amenities at your disposal, maps and good advice for hiking routes, fully stocked pantry, homemade bread... The host Massimo is a treasure! Big thanks and sorry I snatched the sunglasses :)

Hiking
IsraelOnce you get past the winding narrow road - you enter another world. We arrived early, so we parked the car and luckily other hikers suggested we hike to Pogallo. This hike was one of the highlights of our trip. Water falls at every turn, a river you can bathe in and the small village of Pogallo which makes you feel like you will run into Maria singing the "The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Music." This is a hostel so it's difficult to give it a regular rating. We reserved a room with two twin beds and a private bathroom. The twin beds were bunk beds. :-) and the private bathroom did not include a shower. There were communal showers. Everything was clean and comfortable (well I'll admit sleeping on a top bunk at the age of 64 was a bit challenging ;-) ) The communal kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal and the owner has set up the kitchen with all snack food you may need. You can pay for it there. You can also eat at the reasonably priced restaurant connected to the hostel.
