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 StatesWoke up to roaches in the bathroom-in the shower under my bath towel, they were on the Tv stand crawling up the walls. It was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever woken up to. Absolutely absurd the price you pay and this is what you get. Couldn’t believe this actually happened! Will not ever stay again Or recommend! I would appreciate a refund in FULL for this!

United StatesThere was a pair of sandals on the floor when I entered the room. The shower still had a bar of soap in it. There is an old ac unit in the room. Hot air comes in through the gap. They are currently using central cooling and losing cold air out of the open cracks where the AC unit is. The grate for the central air was dirty. There was coffee in the room but no coffee maker.
Super 8 always has a comfy bed. Internet was good. It was quiet. The curtain was nice and thick to block out the light.

United StatesExterior maintenance and above problem with AC. Sidewalks and parking lot were dirty.
Interaction with owner at checkout. The ceiling underneath the air conditioner vent had dripped on to the floor all night and wet the carpet. The room was otherwise clean and comfortable. When we checked out I reported the drip problem to the owner and she comped the room. She explained that she had recently purchased the property and was trying to get air conditioner repair people in to check all the rooms for the problem but it was slow going. She stated what the problem was (overflowing drip pans) and was most understanding.

United StatesOverpriced and definitely not worth it. Toilet was broken, room was still dirty, and to top it all off the maids are rude and disrespectful like they hate their jobs ( despite us leaving them alone and doing everything ourselves as much as possible) We were literally being harassed by the lady until we checked out. (a few other guests had to deal with her as well as we witnessed from the halls )
There was a balcony but it was tiny and not worth the extra we paid . Jaccuzi was filthy
