How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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 stairs needed some major attention! Hadn’t been cleaned in some time :/
Overall a great deal. We paid $50 a night when we went and our family of 8 all agreed the beds were some of the most comfortable we had ever had anywhere! The rooms were very spacious and clean! Location is great, you don’t have to go through all the crazy traffic either! The hot breakfast was a bonus for the price. It had all the same options as every hotel with a free hot breakfast. We didn’t try out the indoor pool, but it looked nice!

Did receive keys that didn’t work right off the bat, we had a used towel in our room which we just made sure not to use. I definitely think there are some long term people living there, I noticed some interesting people walking around but completely harmless. At check out there was a woman and 2 young girls maybe age 14-16 sitting behind the counter. The woman who I know worked there because I had seen her the previous day sat with her cell phone in her face and didn’t acknowledge me but one of the young girls did and took my keys. Found that a little odd.
Overall our stay was good. Right off the bat we did have a situation with our room key where it wasn’t working. They switched us rooms to attempt to rectify quickly which actually was a downgrade so we said something again and they put us back in our original room and completed fixing the keys (basically the batteries in the door were low so that was all that needed to be fixed). Once that was all gravy we really didn’t have any major issues. We did find one towel in our room that looked like it was missed from the previous people and it had been clearly used but not a huge deal just made sure we didn’t use it and had plenty others in the room to use. There was another incident with another guest causing a scene where we just happened to be heading out to dinner so it seemed to resolve quickly after the police were called (nothing where we felt we were in danger and nothing the property management did wrong, they seemed to be completely in the right from our perspective) guest was causing a scene due to what seemed to be they were caught smoking in their room…I mean they have signs all over and you sign a form at check in that you will be charged $250 if caught smoking in your room….so don’t be a rebel cuz they will act! But that’s fair! We didn’t get around to using the indoor swimming pool so cannot attest to how that was. Breakfast was honestly great for what you pay per night. Location is around the corner from the main strip so honestly when it did get busy it was nice being away from the congestion.
