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.).

SpainIn the dorm, the beds are small, like for teenagers (I'm not tall).
Well located in the center with the proximity louage station and places to eat around the corner. The staff is very welcoming and keen to deliver advice on how to visit the places of interest. For me, the breakfast is alright.

SwitzerlandNothing to complain, considering the low price.
Very friendly hostel. Simple, but clean and comfortable. Kitchen available. I was there during Ramadan. As we didn‘t have food with us, and restaurants were closed at night, the host was so generous to share his own dinner with us.

CanadaNo toilet seats? Older building. Difficult to say anything negative about these great managers though.
The two managers are a great source of tips and information. I really enjoyed meeting other travellers here. I slept very well here and the croissant provided at breakfast was good. I liked having breakfast or just sitting on the balcony overlooking the busy market. Staff are very nice, helpful and top notch guys. Central location.

IndonesiaIf you read review about water shortage, it's probably because the city has water piping installation project and it's only for couple hours/day. By the time you read this review, the water shortage becomes irrelevant.
All. The location, the price, very kind owner/staff who gives tips to go around attractions and cheap/good restaurant

TurkeyThe host is very friendly and helpful. He can speak English, French, Turkish, Arabic. The breakfast was very good. We stayed in a private double room, parked our rental car in front of the hotel. It was safe. We felt at home. There is water shortage in Tataouine in some hours. The host puts a big vacuum bottle in front of the hotel door and gives free drinkable water to people. He is a great guy.

FranceEverything was great. For the price the room was very much satisfying.
Staff behavior was very very good. The breakfast was tasty. Boiled egg, bread, jam, butter, tea, pain au Chocolat - it was great. The location is perfect. Very close to the louages stop to go to Ksar Oualed and Chenini - ask the hotel manager and he will let you know. He accepts payment by TND or Euros. The wifi is good.

United KingdomComfy enough sleeping arrangements, access to cooking facilities and good wifi, and everything kept clean and tidy. The property is just round the corner from the louage stop, from where you can easily explore the surrounding cave villages that make Tataouine famous. But best of all was the exceptional service from the staff - not only did they go out of their way to fulfil my request for the included breakfast to be served in the evening instead (due to my fasting for Ramadan), they also managed to accommodate my vegetarian diet (far from easy with the local cuisine!), and provided delicious dinner-sized portions, which was far more than I expected and more than they needed to do! When I tried to tip for this the owner humbly rejected my offer, explaining that the most important thing was guest satisfaction and this refreshing attitude was certainly evident during my stay :)

BrazilBecause we're in a desert area I already expected some issues with water. Our toilet upstairs didn't work so we used the downstairs one.
Lovely staff, made us feel so at home and helped us with anything we needed. The owner kindly upgraded me and my boyfriend to a double room instead of the triple single bed room we originally booked. The rooms are very simple, but clean and well kept.

United KingdomBurn marks on bed sheet. There was no toilet paper provided in the toilets, although in this part of the world its fairly standard to carry your own with you so it didn't cause me any bother.
Considering the low price I paid Auberge Alferdaous met all of my expectations. A basic room but comfortable. The owner/manager was great, very friendly throughout and helped me navigate the local louage buses to both Ksar Ouled Soltane and Chenini. WiFi connection was good and it has a nice central location in the town.
