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.).

Germany- bathroom window opens inside the room but it’s fine - not the best wifi if you stay in one of the rooms last floor
+ location and view + breakfast is great (especially if you have it on the terrace upstairs) + staff very friendly + flexibly (check in early on the first day and breakfast earlier than their usual on the last day due to our flight )

United KingdomThe photos available for this property were quite limited and didn't show for example that the bathroom is not fully separated from the bedroom, and there are open windows that you can see between! Also, compared to some of the other places we stayed on our trip, this riad lacked a bit in character.
The riad was very clean and comfortable and we had a nice stay. It has a roof terrace, but because of the strong winds there wasn't really a good time to make use of it!

United Arab EmiratesIf you don't speak Arabic or French, you will struggle as the staff's English is very limited. Payment in cash is a pain when atm max withdrawals are 2000mad. certain noise does carry through the hostel and I could hear cleaning taking place from like 8:30am on my last morning, though earplugs did the trick.
wonderfully comfortable little BnB style hotel! I loved my stay here, especially having come from a truly heinous hostel. The staff are friendly and the wifi worked well. the room was so cute and looked exactly like the photos, which is rare for Morocco, it would seem. You can hear the ocean clearly though your open windows, which is nice. I would totally stay here again!

Czech Republic- Seagulls can be insanely loud, especially in the morning. Obviously this has nothing to do with the hotel, just the location - Not having a physical door between bathroom and the bedroom is slightly uncomfortable
- Excellent location (right next to the sea, in the center of old town but not on a busy street) - Friendly and helpful staff - Comfortable and spacious room

CanadaThe room was very cold and humid even though the booking site stated the rooms were heated. The beds and pillows were rock solid. The room is also really noisy when you’re trying to sleep. They only serve bread for breakfast.
The view from the rooftop is amazing. A nice cozy area. The freshly squeezed orange juice was a nice touch to breakfast. The staff were really kind. The place was clean.

BelgiumThe windows have a view to the main courtyard so guests pass by all the time and the noises from outside are very well heard. The access to the roof is amazing though. The common area where breakfast is served is cozy but a bit dark.
A very nicely organised riad with a southern white washed wall atmosphere. The room was very clean and spacious. It felt at home.

PortugalThe rooms were very cold and humid, keep in mind we visited in January. A heater in the room would've been nice. The bed and pillows were a bit too hard. Also the bed was small for a couple, my boyfriend and I had too little space. For one person it would've been ok. But overall it was ok for the price we paid.
Cozy common area and superb view of the ocean from the rooftop. The staff were warm and helpful, location was good and breakfast was simple but yummy. Fresh orange juice and freshly made moroccan pancakes with jams, butter and honey. Tea or coffee. The rooms were spacious, the shower was hot and had a good pressure. Everything was very clean.

United KingdomWe visited Casa del Mar part-way through a bikepacking trip from Agadir to Marrakesh and back via this coastal city. The staff were more than happy for us to store the bikes upstairs in our room, which was excellent. The room itself was large enough & had two good sized beds, given it’s description as a ‘triple’. It had a small mezzanine level with a 4ft mattress on, which was perfectly comfortable. The bathroom was clean and functional, with a powerful, hot shower. Breakfast was good, with fresh juice, mint tea and a range of traditional baked items. The location is great if you want to explore the hustle and bustle of the city’s narrow streets, maybe not so great if you are after something a little quieter or have a rental vehicle. Inside does a good job of blocking out the noise from outside, but sound travels within the property’s numerous floors quite easily & we were woken up in the night by music a couple of times. The terrace area on top is also a nice addition. However, it’s a shame that the lights don’t appear to work, so you can’t sit up there in the evenings after dark as we’d hoped to.

Great interior, all natural materials, all nice and white with pops of color, easy on the eye. Great location, with some view towards the ocean from the terrace Really pleasant place to spend a couple of nights, great value for the price.
