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.).

TurkeyThe mosque across the street may wake you up in the early morning—we did not mind this, but it may not be an ideal location for those who have trouble falling back to sleep.
The staff are very friendly and helpful in arranging tours and taxis around the Kars region. The breakfast is tasty, too!

United StatesNot a lot to say here that is bad, this is a great value for money hotel in a rather non-touristy area for English speakers. As long as you don't expect too much luxury you will be very happy here.
Very friendly and helpful staff. We had initially a leaking problem in our bathroom, straight way they moved us into a bigger room. Upon entering, the typical Turkish hospitality will straight away make your time here excellent. At all hours in the reception they offer tea or coffee to guests. They serve a wonderful breakfast and provide mostly anything you ask for. Generally we found at least one staff speaking English, however they are very good with Google translate and will work very hard to understand what you are communicating.

IsraelThe room smelled of cigarette smoking. While the room was very clean it needs maintenance and updating. Floor and walls were peeling off, the bathroom’s door handle came off and the bed sheet was too small to cover the mattress.
Great location, in the center of town within walking distance to the citadel, bus station and all interesting points in town including the minibus to Ani, spotless clean, friendly staff and amazing rich breakfast. The room designed for 3 was spacious (double rooms are tiny).

AustraliaJust be warned there is no air-conditioning in the rooms. We were here in August and the room was so hot and uncomfortable at night (even with the windows open). I asked the reception if there was a fan we would could use and they said no.
Very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was overall really good. Location was perfect too. The reception team kindly helped us organise a taxi to the bus station as well.

Czech RepublicThe bed was a bit damaged in my room, unfortunately. Also, the hotel is right across a street from a large mosque, so it can get a bit loud few times per day.
The room was very nice, clean, cozy, also the hotel is very centrally located and the staff is really friendly and helpful. My stay had breakfast included, and therefore in terms of value per money, this hotel can be only recommended.

PeruFinding the place was a little confusing as the name of the hotel is different to what is on booking.com. No air-conditioning so if it's very warm you need to have the window open so can be noisy.
Helpful staff for planning our onward journey and also for late check-in Breakfast was good with attentive staff and nice selection of food.

United StatesThe staff is not very knowledgeable about departures to other places. They even gave me a wrong address of the Otogar/Bus Terminal, and as a consequence I ended up missing my intended bus to Iğdir and had to wait 2h for the next one. However, that’s also on me. I should have double checked before going to the wrong place.
The location was perfect and the room was exceptionally clean/ The staff were friendly and attentive. They even helped me arranging a taxi to visit the Ruins of Ani.
