How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

- • Chakir Suite
- • Stayed 1 night
The windows in the room opened up to the interior courtyard, which people tend to talk loudly in, so there was some noise during the night. The breakfast was one of the more meager ones we had in Morocco.
The room was a good size. One room had a double bed and a single day bed. The other room, separated by a curtain, had two singles and the door to the bathroom. The location of the riad is great.

No soap for the bathroom. The fact that the light next to the bed could not be plugged in at the same time while charging your phone.
Delicious traditional Moroccan breakfast food! The location of the Riad was very easy to find, right next to the main street where all the shops are. The Riad is very quiet despite from the busy street. The room was very spacious, we had the 2nd floor room, big bed, private bathroom. Very comfortable bed, towels included, a big spacious area to leave your belongings. Very nice terrace, unfortunately it rained and hailed while we stayed there, thus not having the possibility to enjoy it, but pretty nonetheless. The lady at the check-in was super delightful, she gave us full on tips to visit in Essaouira during our stay. Must-sees and points of interest.

Excellent price/quality ratio - it's not luxury accommodation but the rooms were very clean and comfortable. The staff was kind and always ready to help - it was a pleasure to chat with them when coming in the hotel, and they helped us organise a quad ride and our transportation to the airport. The riad is in the centre of the Medina, just off one of the main streets, and it feels safe to come back at night.

I stayed two nights. It's very centrally located in the Medina - close to all the things a tourist would want if only staying one, two or three nights. It's just off a big, highly touristed street, but a little way down an alley, so nice and quiet. The riad has a very calm, Old World feel. My room was perfectly clean and nicely decorated with woolen carpets and woolen curtains. It had a sort of Moroccan country style vibe. Simple, but very solid, clean and good quality. (I looked under my bed. Spotlessly clean). Nora and other staff members were very nice. I was very pleased with the experience.
