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.).

The location is perfect, the staff super friendly, extremely quiet so no noise at all even when I stayed at the business pod which was fantastic. Fast wi-fi, toilets and showers available all the time, never had to wait a minute, public transportation one block away. Definitely coming back!

New ZealandThe slight office-y vibe made me have weird dreams about work…
I did have to laugh when I turned up to a bed inside a portable meeting room — I knew I’d booked it but it really was a little glass meeting room with a curtain. But it was great?! The bed was super comfy, the bathrooms were clean and private, never had to wait for others to finish up despite the floor being at capacity. The kitchenette was equipped with a variety of teas and coffee, chilled water, some comfy seats, and the other guests were all courteous and friendly (but not too friendly!). Perfect for this 30 year old introvert looking for bougie on a budget. The best part were the staff — they were so kind, friendly and accomodating — they let me store my bags for the day after checking out and even offered to let me hang out while I waited for an evening train — I was very grateful for the ability to chill and have a cup of tea and charge my phone after a hectic day in the city!

New ZealandIt was very quiet, and I found that disconcerting. Having a staff member around to greet and show around would have been welcoming :) A blanket or duvet would have been great as was quite cold at night.
It was a very quiet place to stay, which felt a bit strange at the start. Staff were not visible when I arrived, but on check out they were very accomodating. It felt safe, quiet. Amazingly tidy and clean. Great bathrooms!

NetherlandsNothing that I can think of right now.
It is not a party hostel, so it was mostly quiet inside the rooms other than the normal noise from people getting in or out. Also, the bed is a 'pod' so it blocks the light that comes from the street. It has common areas where you can chat with people if you feel like it and where you can eat your food. Note that the kitchen doesn't have a stove, only a microwave.

CanadaI stayed in a pod. The floor and under the bed wasn’t vacuumed (full of crumbs) and so didn’t feel like I could put any of my belongings there. Would love to have a shelf inside the pod, and hair dryers in the big shower room.
It was great! So clean, well maintained. Spacious.
