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.).

AustraliaThe stairs were very steep for 70 year olds but with help with our luggage by staff we were able to manage. Front door pad a little tricky but everything’s else was very very good.
The property was well located fairly quiet in the evenings, staff were amazing, the room was big which was great and the bed very comfortable.

Australia* The safe in our room was locked by a previous guest and it took 2 days before the owner replaced the safe with one from another room. * The keypad doorlocks were a nightmare. While I got the hang of opening the door to the building, I never got the hang of opening the room door (Studio Runstraat Suite) and my friend had to open it for me every time. * There is no elevator and the stairs are directly in front of the building entrance door and are steep and narrow so you have to be very careful walking up and down them. Taking suitcases up the stairs is very difficult and you will need someone capable of lifting them. Some of the other rooms are up 2 flights of stairs. We met some other guests staying there and they had the same issues with the doorlocks and stairs, however, I still recommend the hotel.
We stayed in the Studio Runstraat Suite and it was incredibly spacious. It is located on the first floor (there are no ground floor rooms) and is simply and nicely decorated with a great bathroom as well. The hotel is in a very beautiful location surrounded by shops, cafes, restaurants, canals and is a 5 minute walk to the Anne Frank House and tram stops and is around a 15 minute walk to the main train station (Amsterdam Centraal) and the red light district. The rooms are tidied up each day which was very nice. We met one of the owners and her doggy and they were both absolutely lovely.

AustraliaStairs are slightly steep, so just need to be careful when walking up and down, but have heard this is common in Amsterdam!
Very clean and spacious property. Cute lounge area, comfortable bed, and great shower. Mini fridge was stocked & had a coffee machine with pods. Central area, so easy to get around either by foot or tram. Only 20 min walk from Centraal station.

CanadaStreet Entry pad needs to be replaced; there was no advance notice on the reservation of the two flights of stairs to get to the suite (more challenging for seniors); received no ADVANCE notification of how to enter the property (we were expecting a Hotel with a reception) so this was surprising upon arrival. Bathroom has no windows and needs more lighting.
Location, size, layout, convenience, well-appointed

CanadaComing from Canada, we were surprised that the second floor was actually the third floor there. It was a long way up with suitcases, but it did have a very nice view of the street. Also probably quieter.
The room, once we found it, was in a great location. Easy walking distance to everything we needed. It was clean and the staff and owner were fantastic. Would definitely recommend it.

United KingdomYou could hear the people in the room above moving around quite clearly-but it is an old house with wooden floors-so rally it was to be expected.
Beautifully located and exactly as it looks in the pictures-spacious, well decorated throughout and completely clean. The room is at the back of the house and therefore very quiet from outside noise. Communication from Merel was excellent and really helpful.

United StatesThe only negatives (and they were minor) were the fact that there was no elevator/lift, so you had to pull your bags up some steep staircases, but not a major issue is you can handle your bags. The keypad/lock system works well once you get familiar with it, but had some issues with how the doorknob and lock mechanism worked initially. Nothing the hotel could do about it, but there was some construction work going on to another house on the block, so we were awoken each morning around 7:30-8am by construction work sounds.
Great location in the heart of the "9 Streets" area (between 2 popular/major canals, with relatively easy access to most of the key activities we wanted to check out (5-20 minute walk to pretty much everything we were interested in). Cool room with very unique design features. Very spacious room with all the basics included/covered and they included the mini-fridge items in the basic room costs (not an additional charge if you grab a drink or 2 from the mini-fridge).
