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.).

United StatesIf you're booking a single room, ask for the one with a door and a fan. (The other has only a curtain and I did not see a fan there.) I could not figure out how to get hot water in the shower (there seems to be a hot water on demand type heater) but I did not really need it. On the whole nothing major to complain about.
As hostels go, this one is small but quite lovely. Twenty minutes easy walk from and to the airport, even at 5:00 a.m. The individual rooms are very convenient, with a lovely, breezy balcony adjoining the bedrooms and sitting area. The kitchen is convenient; even has a cold water dispenser in the fridge door.

United StatesWouldn't recommend going to Tahiti in Feb, just went then cause I got a good deal on Paul Gauguin ship, was somewhat disappointed in old ship, prefer Windstar or Oceania probably. Islands beautiful. Hostel in neighborhood so people, chickens up at 4-5am and dogs barking all night if want to as loose. Big nice dog on site, doesn't come in house.Smokers sit on patio outside kitchen door, best to close it if they are there.
Everything was good except I booked a low std single room which wound up on the second floor. I had 3 suitcases, one quite heavy and I am elderly and partially disabled. I couldn't climb the stairs with all the luggage so I took a dorm bed on the ground floor.. It had a noisy overhead fan and large unscreened windows to catch the breeze in very humid, sweaty February. The single room had a stand fan. Once I borrowed one of those it was much more comfortable. I did not get a rate adjustment for downgrading. The ground floor double room near me rents for at least double what I paid and was booked. The owner was very accommodating providing rides to airport and ferry in town for 1500 ($15), the minimum price for taxis on the island,place is real close to airport and not much further to town. It was a great value. I spent a day or two at the Intercontinental chillin'. It was on the main bus route and near food and market, Bus $2. All had access to a kitchen with frig and tea making.

United StatesFor me it’s not an issue as I can sleep anywhere, but some people might be annoyed by the dog barking in the morning and the bass music playing at 8:30am.
Proximity to the airport, friendly hosts who asked if I needed anything, single enclosed room, WiFi worked well, free coffee and bananas. I would stay again on another layover.

ItalyIf you want to explore the city center also in the evening/night, you will be quite far away and with no buses and very few taxis.
The kitchen, the staff, the shower (downstairs), the location for the airport.

UzbekistanSmall hiccup with check in. Host picked me up, but there was a slight language barrier. Also, address is even closer to airport than booking.com said, which was good, but potentially confusing for others making their way without the host
Friendly host, good value. Fresh fruit. Got what I was paying for- a decent place close to the airport at a great price. Two bathrooms for shared room situation is nice

United StatesDirty and unsanitary conditions, noise level was unbearable with dogs barking and roosters crowing all night. Being bitten by bugs and a filthy mattress you couldn't even think of laying on. No offer of even a glass of water.

AustriaActually my "room" was just a bed behind a curtain on the way to a room. Foto on booking.com is another room. Shared bathroom. Very noisy, because guests from the real rooms passing by in front of my bed in the night.
Very nice owner!

FijiThe host didn’t come pick me up at the airport as planned. It was 3am but they had agreed to be there. I ended up having to get a taxi there but couldn’t get in when I arrived. I called several times and nobody answered. I had to go to the Hilton and spend the night as I had no other options. The hosts unreliability cost me $450 USD.
