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 KingdomThe bathroom could have been cleaner.
The location is good, not in the old town but it's only a short walk. The room is big and had a separate seating area. Nice to have a fridge in the room as well. Comfy bed.

ItalyIn general I think there are some aspects that need to be improved: - The apartment is clean but the restroom need constant cleaning and maintenance - The host was absent during my stay. I tried to reach her out through mobile phone, as she recommended, but she has been offline during my full stay. Is important to give the clients a contact number in case of necessity
My experience at May Homestay has been overall very positive. My room with bathtub was absolutely amazing and loved the Vietnamese and peaceful vibes that transmitted through its decor. The room is not in the old quarter centre (just 10 minutes on foot) but is on a less noisy and crowded street that makes it more relaxing

Netherlands- The bathroom is behind a glass wall with a shower curtain to cover the glass. The curtain isn’t wide enough to cover the entire glass wall and is kind of see through. I was alone so this didn’t matter for me, but if you’re sharing this room it means you can basically see (and hear) each other shower or go to the toilet if you don’t look away. - The water from the showers gets in the room a bit because the glass wall has an opening on the floor. - It’s not very well isolated which means you can hear all the street noises (but I think this kind of adds to the experience of “living in Hanoi”). The sounds of the upstairs neighbours (flushing the toilet, showering, dropping things or even using the stairs) was a bit more annoying sometimes.
- Nice room which feels like a little home in Hanoi. Though the pictures look a bit nicer than the room in real life, it’s still a very good room for this price. - Room has a fridge. - Airconditioning - Warm water. - Most things are walkable.

EstoniaIf you stay only 1 night, it is fine. Room is not very clean (please clean the surfaces, corners and ceilings), the bathroom floor is always wet because water is coming from a drain right next to the toilet. Your feet will be wet when going to the bathroom. They do provide one pair of flipflops. The sink is not in the bathroom. For privacy, curtains have to be always closed so you get no light in the room. There is a kettle but no cups.
Lovely staff! Great location, though you have to pass through an uninviting backstreet alleyway, but they even provide a video for reaching the place. They really try their best and are very kind. Free 1 glass bottle of drinking water provided. Good aircon, mini fridge and kettle provided.

NetherlandsIt’s right on the street, so if you look for peace it’s not ideal - it’s Hanoi, it is what it is :) When temperatures drop it gets a bit cold inside (there were 10C degrees outside but there is no heating and the apartment is exposed on 3 sides). Our apartment was located on 4th floor, for others it may be inconvenient.
Spacious and clean apartment. Good wifi & AC if needed. Large & comfy bed. Smart tv with Netflix & others. Very nice hot shower. There is also a cute shared balcony. Centrally located. New & well-maintained facilities. Definitely worth the price!

IndiaI had booked this property for three nights with pay at property (the only option available). We were approached by the owner immediately with a request to pay booking amount using a different website within 24 hours or the reservation would be cancelled. The next day the owner highlights some technical glitch and that we have to checkout after 2 nights because the property is already booked for the third night. I mean really? We have never had such issues with booking.com in the past. It was no technical glitch and clearly the owner forgot to reserve the booking on other booking app's for our dates. The check-in process and services post check-in are just HORRIBLE. The rooms are not exactly the same as pictures. On Check-in we had to wait for almost 30-45 minutes as there was no one at the counter and we kept texting the owner to which she did not responded. We then had to request neighbors to call the owner which they did. Finally an old lady arrives who does not speak English at all. We were asked to pay complete payment (minus the booking amount already paid) along with refundable "Property damage security". This is before we could even see the rooms. Decembers in Hanoi can be extremely cold. On the day of our check-in the temperature outside was 12 degrees Celsius, & the room had just one extremely thin bed linen. We kept texting the owner to provide us with extra blanket but with no response (until next day almost after 14 hours) . We tried reaching out to the lady at the counter but in vain. We requested neighbors again to call the lady & as it was night - we got no response. That night was just horrible and next day we decided to leave the property despite not getting any refund. This accommodation is fit for people who are looking for casual stays of one day maximum, have patience to bear inconvenience and have ample time and energy to spend on basic processes like Check-in , check-out, asking for extra Lenin, towels etc.
Probably the neighbors who were happy to call the owner to help us with check in. We had to wait for 30 -40 minutes during the check-in.

SpainWe booked with breakfast included. Some days before they asked for a "reservation fee" and we were supposed to pay at arrival. After that, they said that there was an error on the listing and that there was no breakfast. They said we could take it for extra money. On the day of arrival they asked for confirmation of arrival and threatened that if we didn't answer they will give the room to someone else. I had no internet as i just arrived to Vietnam. All the process felt very stressing.
Room very clean, very comfortable bed, good facilities. They kept our luggage until the night the day that we had to check out.
