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.).

PolandI didn’t stay in this place. I spent a lot of time to find it. It wasn’t there ,were supposed to be. Localisation on the booking was wrong , and information was it is 400 metres from Nungwi beach. I topped up my phone and I called for phone number from booking. I get information that this number not exist. I chose this object because I looked for something close to ocean. I was so surprised when after searching ,Google maps showed me different location around 1500 meters from the beach. I found this place , I called for another number from google. Some women picked up the phone and said we need to wait for someone who came open the gate. When we waited we realised that some pictures also are fake. We decided don’t stay there , because this what we expected from the picture and description wasn’t true. When the men came we told him we want to resigned because all of this. He didn’t know English and he didn’t understand. We left and searched new accommodation. I contacted straight away with booking customers service and talked with them about all of this. Unfortunately I get back only 20 % my payment. Customer service decided they cannot give my money back because reservation was non-refundable. They can do this only if saba saba home stay agree for it. They contacted with them. Owner not agree cancel my reservation free of charge. They also said that location on booking it’s correct. I see now they deleted some pictures and information about how far it’s the beach, but still same wrong location. There isn’t reception or bungalows or garden. I don’t know how look house inside. I don’t recommend this place. I don’t trust people when they write not true.

GreeceExcellent choice at a reasonable price. Very clean and tidy with a focus on increased security. The garden of the accommodation is ideal to relax. Lot of local shops and restaurants around, as it is located next to the main road. The beach is less than 15 minutes walking distance.

United KingdomSCAM. We booked: double room with balcony, garden view, few min from the beach location. We arrived to the location provided on booking.com. It appeared to be place called “Kivulini Garden”. They told us we will stay here one night because there is no electric at our place and tomorrow they are going to move us to different location. (which was very confusing). Room that we stayed in for that night fit the description of our booking: balcony and garden view, location near the beach. Room itself fit the picture of the room that we have booked. Next day we had to pack, they put us in the car and took us to a totally different location, far away from the the booked location, far away from the beach. They left us at some abandoned horrible shared house with creepy abandoned rooms. There were no electric most of the time, no water, no flashing toilet. When we had water it was orange colour. We did not even know where we were, as location of our booked hotel/accommodation was in totally different place where we stayed for the first night. We were stuck outside for few hours as we couldn’t open rusty gates. No one would answer the phone or my messages. I kept asking for the address so we can get a taxi or know where we were. They would not reply. Our room stank of sewage so bad, and so our clothes. There were no ventilation, green mouldy walls. Sickening smell. I traveled with child. These were unacceptable conditions to live in and not what we have booked! On the occasion where we had no water again and I got through to the “hosts”, they told me if I’m not happy I should just get out. (we have paid for 9 nights). Snd if I want to be moved to location I have originally booked I have to pay extra! double the money. I’ve complained to booking.com saying we were brought to a different location. Next day they brought someone else in, who got scammed just like us and was confused as to where he was.

SwitzerlandWrong location on the map, it took me a very long time to find the place. The description is wrong, I didn't have a balcony, neither any view. It was written breakfast included then they said it was not included, I had to insist then I had to walk more than 15 minutes to get the breakfast, so it was very far. I asked for a taxi, they wanted to make me pay twice the price I found in the street. The shower is warm for less than 2 minutes. I was stuck outside during the night because the key didn't open the front door.
