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.).

PortugalI liked all. There is nothing I can say I didn't like.
The hotel was very nice, with a nice swimming pool, a little gym and an amazing location, just in the front of the 2nd world war landing strip built by the british...AMAZING! It is like beeing in a movie...with this "airport" in front of our rooms. Perfect staff.

SloveniaSome of the furniture might had seen better days, but the beds are new, comfortable and clean. We had some trouble finding the place late at night since there is no obvious paved road leading to the hotel (but there is a WW2 runway going there, which is a landmark on its own).
The staff was extra friendly and they made us feel very welcome and comfortable. Even though we booked normal rooms, they upgraded them to the ones with a balcony.

PolandThere is no sign of Super OYO on the building, but there is no other hotel in the immediate area, so just drive on the abandoned runway untill you come to a well-lit building (on the eastern side of the runway) at the junction with a shorter runway.
Hotel is located a couple of minutes' walk from the beach, where, if you go early enough, there is a good chance of seeing turtles. Excellent open pool, open year round.

ItalyIn the room, there was an old furniture full of ants. Also, I suggest to circulate the air as it was a bit stale when we got in the room.
Good breakfast. Excellent view on the sea. Be careful when driving around in this area as not all streets are enlightened. Very kind staff and beautiful opportunity to have dinner on the beach with Fa'il....

United Arab EmiratesWe will miss having the in-house biryani they used to serve for dinner at the hotel! It is unfortunately no longer an option but the staff recommended this little restaurant a few minutes away from the hotel which was really good.
A good alternative to the overpriced hotels for turtle watching at the reserve. I have been going to this hotel for years, every time I visit this part of Oman with new guests because its value for money is great, the staff has always been helpful and welcoming, and the location of the hotel on an old runway is just unique in its own way.

Czech RepublicWe chose this location mainly for its good position, being close to the Turtles reservation (15 minutes by car) and a short distance from the seacoast (5 minutes by walk). The room was big and clean. We had a room with a nice terrace where you could see the sunset. In the morning, we had breakfast, and all the food was tasty. The price fully matched the quality. The hotel also has a swimming pool, but in December really cold. We were satisfied, and we can recommend this hotel.

CanadaThere aren’t any restaurants near the hotel, so you have to drive to have a meal.
The room was large and had a balcony facing the water. The furniture in the room was quite old and worn. The bed was large, but quite hard. Breakfast in the morning was really good. Great variety. The staff were really friendly.
