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.).

New ZealandThe shower hot water was either too hot or cold, it was difficult to get the right temperature. I would like a safety chain on the door. I pushed the kitchen table and chair against it for added security. I would like a small iron and ironing board.
I like having a kitchenette like that one. The toilet is nice and private. The television was clear. I appreciated having a late check in because I travelled 3hrs to the hospital and wasn’t able to check in till late.

New ZealandShe tried to put me in a room I didn't want or booked for. I was told "no visitors make sure no visitors" then when my family came to pick us up their small dog managed to jump out of car and into our room we tried apologizing she pointed her finger at us and said "no, no dogs" I thought that was very abrupt.
The room was great, very comfortable and spacious.

New ZealandWhen you used the shower, it made a terrible noise which could be heard throughout the room. The light shade in the room was broken, and there was no wardrobe or place to hang clothes in one of the rooms. There may have been a misunderstanding due to cultural differences, which made for an uncomfortable situation.
The staff was not friendly or welcoming on arrival. The room was clean, and the facilities were clean. However, there were dead insects on the window cill of one room. The staff person who initially greeted us tried to be nicer later, but first impressions were already too firmly etched. The farewell at the end was nice and sincere. The staff person walked around as if she were checking up on us and our guests visiting for a couple of hours. I had read through the rules but felt like I was being watched to see if I was breaking any laws.

New ZealandI appreciate that the owners must suffer often with errant guests, unruliness and loud music/parties, and I can sympathise that troublesome behaviour is frustrating, but it was truely a let down to be questioned over and over about how many people were staying, chastised about visitors (we had none), referred to the rules about visitors and had it made clear that they do not want trouble. It upset me otherwise our stay was good.
Size of the two bedroom was awesome, attention to detail, the place is immaculate inside and out, hard workers from decor to gardens.

New ZealandFirst we're not aware that we will have an extra charge per night. I book two rooms and it say's the room can accomodate maximum of 3 people we are 6. Each room was 3 people so I thought it is ok. Upon arrival they review the camera to check how many person inside the car the guy said we are 5 but originally we are only 4 person inside the car, 2 of our friends waiting for us coz we arrived in different car. I ask them why was on the booking.com has a condition that can accomodate 3 person in 1 room and they said that they didn't care about booking.com. I hope next time they will clarify each condition of the said motel. It will cost a confusion for most of the guest. The guy was rude and didn't listen to us. I got insect bite too on the bed🙁

New ZealandWoman at the reception desk needs to be more welcoming and for some reason she kept repeating that I was to have no visitors.when I acknowledged her the first time she said it I booked the room for 2 guests and thought it was none of her business who my passenger was. The sheets on our bed were the polar fleece kind that had pilled and felt stratchy as.
