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.).

SpainThe bed was really noise and not comfortable. The base of the bed and mattress need to be change. Unfortunately the room and the house is not super clean. It needs improvement in this aspect.
The hospitality of the owners was on the high level. They have solved issue with internet directly after we requested. The breakfast was rich and really tasty. When we were going for excursion early morning. They have prepared us food for take away. The sunrise from the balcony was stunning. 🤩

Sri LankaThere was no waterboiler in the room. I got one on request but it didn't work. The TV said no signal. The internet worked the first night, not the other days. Just after request I got the change from the roompayment back.
This place was in a very good location where you could walk down to the town and to the lake. It had good views from balcony. They served a nice versatile breakfast. You could have monkeys visiting and see them in the balcony. In all it was a nice place for the price.

United Kingdomalthough the location is good I personally felt it wasn’t safe to walk from the property to the city center, it’s a zig-zag / serpentine road, must be careful for the vehicles but it’s very easy to get a TukTuk so it was not a problem at all.
balcony, hot shower, comfortable bed, location close to view point.

BulgariaLocated far from the center on a very steep hill, around 10-15 min by taxi. Very hard to be found, as there are no any signs. The adress was wrong and we had to speak with 3-4 people to finally find it and then climb the steep hill for another 6-7 min. to reach the location. As for the building - it’s a disaster. Looked like an abandoned non finished house with only 2 rooms somehow ready and all the other part of the building under construction. It felt a bit scary. Entering the room you’re welcomed with mold and stains all over the walls. Dust all over the room. Not working fan. Very very different than the photos in Booking - like they were photoshopped or they’re too old. But the worst were the stained bed sheets and blanket which seemed they have not been changed for a long time. When we asked the host to change them, she brought only a new blanket, which had stains on it too. And the sheet remained the same… disgusting. We were told to not open the terrace door because of the monkeys jumping around and on the aluminium rooftop - sounded horrible. When we arrived we felt like the money holders only… she has been constantly asking us when we’re going to pay. I gave her the money. She didn’t even ask me for my passport or something. The host left 10 minutes after and soon later we were gone too from the place, as we thought it’s definitely not worth it… We just payed money and when we asked for a refund we didn’t even had a reply message…
The view from the terrace was the only great thing
