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.).

I was told that it was because some general issues on the street, but other buildings had electricity. The shower was broken and I had ants, when I told them about this, they said they don't speak English.

NetherlandsWe had a very bad experience with this hotel. We had booked a so-called 'suit', but this one looks like a cheap two-room apartment. No comfort at all, very dirty room and bathroom. This room is on the fifth floor and there is no elevator. The walls seem to be made of cardboard. You can even hear sounds from the first floor. Staff/service is 0,0. We were given one towel for five people. We asked for more towels several times but we didn't get them until after three days. Room cleaning is also really terrible. Nothing is cleaned, only the beds are made and the trash can is changed. Bathroom is not hygienic, mold everywhere. Shower head does not work. Twice asked to fix it, but they didn't. Place of the hotel is in a ghetto neighborhood. We will never come back here again. Even if it's free.
Very terrible hotel

GeorgiaThe room was a disaster! unfortunately I couldn't upload more pictures but trust me there are more to show. When they let me in the room it wasn't clean (8pm), the table and floor was dirty, the bed was messed up. They "cleaned up" after I asked them to but that didn't change a lot. The mattress had bumps. The toilet was dirty as hell. There was some dirty paper on the ceiling. The room had no windows (i didn't realise that when I booked, ok that's on me), but there was no bathroom air conditioner either that made it so much worse. I could write more but I think that's enough to make your expectations.

United KingdomFirstly; it’s advertised the staff speak English. They do not speak English whatsoever. For the entirety of our stay, they didn’t once clean our room. We asked for toilet paper and towels and they weren’t provided. We were originally provided with a number to contact regarding checking in and when we used the number as well as reception, we were met with an extremely rude reply. We had to go out and buy toilet roll and necessities ourselves when these should have been provided by the hotel. The Hotel staff were extremely rude. We asked them to book a taxi for us to get to the airport and they said cash would be 600 Turkish liras but paying on card is 750? And then the taxi was 45 mins late! The staff were abusive and refused to help us carry our bags down even when the hotel manager promised to help us. We were literally treated like animals for the trip having to live in our own mess. The AC in our room didn’t work, nor did the fan in the bathroom. Nothing was cleaned and they had cleaners and we asked several times at the reception desk and also by phoning reception - again they couldn’t speak English. I want a full refund and this hotel shouldn’t be advertised on here! They ask for good reviews and asked us for a good review if they helped us!

AustraliaThey tried to “upgrade” our room when we arrived as another guest had extended their stay in the room we were supposed to use, but then demanded we pay a higher rate for the “upgraded room”. The room had couches that were covered in stains, the whole floor stank of cigarettes despite it being no smoking and the shower screen had a hole punched through it.

North MacedoniaI had an extremely disappointing experience during my stay at this hotel. The room I was assigned to was not only small and outdated, but it also lacked a window, which made it feel claustrophobic. Additionally, there was a persistent unpleasant odor throughout the room, and I even noticed the presence of bugs. While I understand that this is a budget hotel, the level of discomfort and inconvenience I experienced far exceeded any reasonable expectations. I cannot stress enough how strongly I advise against choosing this establishment. It simply does not offer any semblance of comfort or satisfactory amenities. Save yourself the trouble and look for alternative accommodations elsewhere.
