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.).

GermanyThe breakfast was only black coffee, toast and strawberry jam. The window in my room is one metre to the next building, the room is very dark.
Free laundry and dryer Personal was very helpful, the Check-in was possible at 1pm I only must wait a hour, and I could leaved my luggage there until check-in.

RussiaThe only thing I could see from the window was the wall of the adjacent building.
The room was cozy, and I liked that the bed had electric heating, great for chilly days. The Wi-Fi worked well. It's close to the Express Bus Station and various sights, like tombs. But if you want to visit places like Bulguska temple, you'll need to take a bus.

GermanyThe price was too high in comparison. We were able to get a room at a similar hostel in central Seoul for almost 30% less for the same amount of nights. Also, the pictures in the listing do show the actual rooms but the photos make them look quite a bit brighter and newer than they actually were.
The rooms were clean and the owner let us check in after the official check-in time. The breakfast room was great for meeting other travellers.

GermanyThe hostel is close to a lot of sightseeing spots and bus stations to reach sightseeing spots that are a little bit further away. The price was really cheap and there is coffee, tea and toast with strawberry jam in the morning as breakfast. The shutters of the window made it really dark in the room, for good sleep. There was curtain in the bathroom, so the toilet wouldn't get wet while showering.

ItalyThe room is very small and the furniture should be replaced. No view from the room on 2nd floor (1st floor for European). The bathroom is tiny and the shower is directly above the sink. However, if you consider the price it's hard to find something better than this.
