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.).

SlovakiaProperty is located in the middle of the old town with tiny roads and access to it was not clearly documented. There is possible park the car in paid parking place (25dh per night) and walk 5min to main entrance. Or host offer backdoor parking for free. I attached map.
Well renovated traditional old house with very atypical architecture. The interior of the rooms was very nice and clean. Facility provides a lot of space, there is a bar, relaxation area on the rooftop, seating and chairs by the pool. Unfortunately, i was probably out of season and that's why nothing was ready. Although it is in the middle of town it was quite there.

AustriaWe didn’t know that this place is recommended in Lonely Planet. I chose it as the first option showing on booking.com for its central location. The owner, Frenchman Yves might be eccentric and sometimes he misses the appropriate tone. The place might not be up to highest standards of hygiene but it is very special in so many ways. Yves put much love into every detail and one feels in a mixture between Breton restaurant and Suess Riad. Our kids enjoyed the zoo atmosphere tremendously. The two huskies which just gave birth to 9 puppies. The turtle, the chicken, the hedgehogs. The variety of plants flowering around the pool make the riad an oasis to return after a day in the souq. We spent here 3 nights and are happy with our experience. I understand that others are not. If you look for an uncomplicated, sterile hotel to stay for a night, don’t come here. You need a bit time to understand and appreciate this place and it’s owner. The forthcoming and friendly staff helps a lot in this regard. The only thing that put me off was Yves’ upon arrival pushiness to follow his plan. Take a horse carriage. Do this do that. Have dinner here. He should give his guests the same time to arrive which is needed to appreciate Taroudant and his Riad as very unique and memorable places.

LithuaniaThe fan in the room is quite noisy and disturbed my sleep at night. And when I turned it off, it got very hot.
Great place in the city center, cozy environment. A lovely, cheerful owner and his two dogs, which is quite rare in Morocco. The host arranged for us a carriage ride around the medina, stopping at more interesting places. Although the driver only spoke French, he was very helpful.

RomaniaThis amazing property lies in a decrepit state that is beyond comprehension: pool is utterly dirty, yard & property grounds look as not having been swept or maintained for ages. Trinkets, construction materials, rags, rusty things and whatnot thrown around. Few bicycles, probably used by guests years ago lie around covered in dust, dirt, unkept. Everywhere there's thick dust and a smell of old. So are the rooms. I opened a window, dust and sand splattered all around from the frame as if it was first time opened in many years. And the bathrooms do not fare any better. Faint smell of urine around the toilet bowl, the sink tap did not work for cold water and the drain was hardly doing its job, yet the shower drain was worse. A couple of husky dogs roam free, skared my kids stiff in the evening, upon return after spending the evening out. Hardly anyone in sight showing interest for the guests. The wifi password (22putin36) and a book with putins portrait laying around only make one feel increasingly uneasy about being there. At breakfast we did not dare touch few of the items on the table as some seemed just as aged and tired as the whole place. I only had coffee with milk, my wife had a pancake and the kids a bit of tea. Went to town for breakfast afterwards. I am not sure if they have plans for refurbishing the place. Obviously, the place badly needs to be restored to its former glory of which i am sure it had plenty. As it is now, I do not consider it fit to cater to guests to the advertised standard so I can not recommend this place. It is a pitty indeed, as the place has terrific potential.
The location was good near the central square, not difficult at all to find. The riad is a wonderful property, full of charm & character. It is nothing short of a carefully designed set for a romantic movie. The rooms we had were good in size, had good bathroom layout with separate toilet room & shower booth, naturally ventilated. It had a pool, a wonderfully exotic garden and an empty land plot behind the property as parking. But...

United KingdomThe place was good but I simply felt uneasy there. Not sure if it was the “warning gays” traffic sign in the hallway or the wifi password being 22putin36 that did it. I won’t be staying there again but maybe it is fine for others.
