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.).

Brazilthe rooms are really small and if you are over 1,70 height, you probably Wont be able to strecht your legs in the bed. i slept in a room with a lot of mold and our Shower had no curtains, so it made the tiny bathroom super flooded.
i like the localization (2 minutes from NEMO museum) and I had no Trouble finding the address. besides, the fact that the boat doesnt move so you dont feel sick

Czech RepublicYou can hear people from the room next to you. Every whisper. 😄 But it was not really big problem for me. I could sleep and it served its purpose. The room was small but what to expect on the boat - I have to mention that I'm a tall girl and I could fit there and had a comportable sleep anyway.
It was really cool accomodation on the boat. The price was affordable and the breakfast was also included what I appreciate. The location was great, the metro station was near by and I could go by a walk to the city. The communication with the owners was easy. I would recommend you to stay there if you don't need too much luxury - you can have an untraditional experience on the boat.

United KingdomBathroom is shared between two rooms. My personal belongings worth $70 got stolen and staff wasn’t really interested to help me solve this issue. Rooms are extremely small, it’s either you or your luggage there, staff wasn’t in the best mood for most of the time, water in shower didn’t go away every morning.
Great location and the dog was soo cute - that’s about it. 😟

United States1. The ship you are expecting to see is a sail ship like the picture you advertise but in reality it far from that, it did not have anywhere to sit in the lower deck and there was a very small bench on the upper deck. the upper deck was full of junk and looked in disarray.
it was great to experience a cabin on a ship.

ItalyIt s a boat, spaces are narrow i know, but the room was veeery small. i took a room for two all by myself and could not phantom how 2 people would be able to fit. For one was ok though.
The boat is very charming, the breakfast was nice and the position is superb. Not the easiest to find but the host readily replied to my call and lead me there.

United States1. It’s not the beautiful sail ship in the picture. It’s a barge. 2. Barely enough space for two people to stand up in the cabin at the same time. 3. The walls are thin, so you will hear any noise your neighbors choose to make. 4. The bathroom is shared between two adjacent cabins, each of which can access it via a sliding door. Before entering the bathroom or taking your clothes off, check that you have locked out the other cabin. In our case, the other cabin’s sliding door was broken, so it made a huge racket (for 20 min) at night when the guest tried to use the bathroom. It woke us up. He even tried to get into our room.
1. Close to the central station 2. Cost was good compared to the hotels, but you get what you pay for. Would not do again. 3. Breakfast was good. 4. Staff was friendly

GeorgiaI didn’t get any expectations because of the price I paid but... it’s worse than you can imagine. A room for two doesn’t even have enough space for two people to STAND, the only option is either you are in a bed or one person is out of the room. The worst part is, there is a bathroom between the two rooms and it has doors from both sides, which means, once you are having a shower, the person from the other room can open the door and see you. You can do the same. They denied keeping our luggage. I understand the business but the staff was very pushy, trying to upsell in a not nice way. There was no WiFi on our boat, we needed to go to another boat to use internet
Only the location was good

AustraliaThe boat is not clean. The showers in both our rooms did not drain, so you either have to stand ankle deep in someone else's cold shower water or don't shower (since you share a shower/toilet with the adjoining room, you have no idea whose shower water you're standing in). The shower head wouldn't stay in place, the heat adjustment was broken so 38° was the warmest you could have. The bottom 30cm of the shower curtain was filthy and mouldy. The rooms are so small that you can't put two backpacks in there and stand in there as well, so getting dressed is problematic and you can't dress in the shower, it's too small and wet (shower doesn't drain). You might decide to put up with this if it was dirt cheap but we paid AU$1000 for 2 nights for 3 people. The photo shows the entire size of the room (taken from the corner).

ItalyGreat stay! I was travelling alone and this boat was a great way to make friends :) It met my every expectations. The location is amazing as just next to central station. It was super easy to walk around the main attractions in Amsterdam. Perfect for a short stay in the city. The manager and the employees were very kind, attentive, but especially friendly. This made my stay at the boat worth it. Overall the place was clean and relaxed. As a plus, they also have an adorable huge dog. Very satisfied :) will surely come back!
