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.).

Nice location, amazing views. You can eat breakfast with the lake and mountain view, very nice. Water in the room is advantage.

AustraliaNot much to fault! We thought this place was so cool and wish we stayed longer than 1 night.
The property is amazing! Very spacious and beautiful property with amazing view. The room was comfortable, lots of storage and the sink in the room was great. The property is very interesting and we enjoyed exploring. The receptionist was very friendly and kind, answering all of our questions about the very interesting history. We had to get up early and would have missed breakfast but the receptionist made us a lunch pack that we picked up the night before which was awesome.

SingaporeSingle bed was a bit small and narrow. Wished that the curtains were longer and covered the entire window, as light was coming in and it was still too bright even though we closed the curtains
Very clean! Shared spaces were well-maintained and the shared kitchen was well-equipped. Love that they had books, games and table tennis table for entertainment ;) also love the breakfast buffet spread and variety. Staff were very friendly and helpful

A challenging climb up a steep hill, but benefitting from great views. Pleasant staff. Good sized room with en suite. Comfy beds. Easy parking. Good breakfast with great early start option. A remote location, there is a small restaurant in the village at the bottom of the access hill that serves an excellent evening meal. As a hostel more than met expectation.

United StatesNot to sound whiny, but basic American conveniences. But this wasn’t America. And maybe we can learn from the minimalist take they have here. Travel, interact, and then use your room to sleep. It did get really hot one day and not having a fan made it hot for sleeping.
We have never stayed at a hostel before. They are not common in the US. It is what it is. A no frills. Inexpensive place to stay. Basically dorm style since this location is a school during those times and a hostel in the summer. But the beds were comfy.

PolandOur room was habitable, but a small renovation would not hurt (room 9).
The view from the window is amazing! The staff is very responsive! The price includes absolutely everything: bed linen and towels, very tasty and varied breakfast buffet, public showers, sauna, jacuzzi (there were no bubbles, it worked just like a warm outdoor bath), barbecue area (you need to buy more coal and matches), board games, some sports equipment, a laundry room where you can wash and dry your clothes. It is very convenient to get to Munketreppene (part of HM Queen Sonja's panoramic hiking trail), where very cute and affectionate goats are alive, which will refresh you after a long climb with their wet tongues :)

The room had an amazing view, nice hammocks and seats/tables outside to admire the view. Staff were courteous and spoke good English. Breakfast was cold meat, ham, boiled egg and rolls with juice and coffee.
