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.).

PhilippinesThe washroom should have more privacy for non-couples but all is good.
The location is very convenient and I must say it was a good choice and place to stay. Definitely, considering going back next time.

New ZealandAbsolutely can’t fault this place.
I cannot rate this place highly enough - fantastic value for money, excellent situation for metro and markets, great staff, clean, secure, extremely well managed, good wifi, generous kitchen and laundry facilities - added feature is a cute room with traditional hanok clothing to dress up in, with seat and lighting for photos!

JapanGreat location! Absolutely loved it! Close to the station and the main area from Myeongdong. So accessible to other parts of Seoul. The room was clean and enough for sleeping if you are staying the whole day out.

SerbiaFor the 6 nights, I would expect at least once the cleaning service for the room. I was surprised no one came to clean, take out garbage, or change the sheets.
It was clean, and the location is great. Shared kitchen is also very good and useful. Staff is very polite and helpful.

AustraliaI like the location, how the rooms were clean. Easy access to extra towels and toilet paper. Friendly staff, Joon helped me organise transport for our day trips, overall friendly and helpful. Also being able to wash our clothes and having a fridge in the room is a plus. Just my preference though - I would have liked the shower and toilet to be separate, but this layout can’t be helped I suppose and it’s a minor thing that is overshadowed by all the good things.

SingaporeRoom's a bit small but that's not an issue since I mostly used to sleep as a solo traveller.
Really convenient location and room was really clean. If you inform the hotel in advance (24hours), they can make arrangements to and fro the airport. I even made several trips from myeongdong street to the hotel since it was so convenient. Staff was friendly as well.

The location is excellent - short walk from subway station entrance up a quiet street. Plenty restaurants available. Good walk to the two main palaces and Hanbok village and very close to Myeong Dong (food night market). Room is tiny but spotlessly clean. Windows that open - yay! Bathroom very small with shower over entire cubicle but very practical. Downstairs, there is coffee and water available, free laundry machines and some tables to eat

This was my second time stayed at Starria Hostel, noticed changes and improvement made on the hotel room and facilities compare to my previous stay before Covid-19. The hostel location is good, walking distance to myeongdong shopping street, airport limousine bus stop and pick up points for day tour. Can walk up to Namsan tower from the hostel. Besides, washer and dryer are provided at the common area, for free laundry.
