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.).

South AfricaThe rooms did not have towels. The bedding is not the same with the ones advertised online, colour is lost. The fridge is rusted. The tv was bad, no DStv. It was like watching TV in 80s. The rooms were untied and dirty. The comfort is not presented. What's advertised online is completely different than what is present on arrival. Terrible experience. Pillows were old and less comfortable. And dirty too. We had to ask for towels three times and were not delivered to us.
Only the location was perfect. The hotel is right at the city center.

South AfricaThe remote wasn't working so I had to go there twice to get a working remote. The fridge was dirty, the floors were dirty (muddy type of dirty). The sink was clogged 😭 worm like brown things were coming out from the drain. I was even scared to use the shower. There's only soap (so no shower cap, no proper towels -just very old dry towels, and they didn't even have a shower gel). There was no microwave in rooms or even a kettle to make tea. There was no other sink, so you had to use the bathroom sink with the "worms" to drink water. The room was very small and there was not even one window in sight. In the early morning (5am) the staff was making a noise with vacuum cleaners and other metal objects that I could hear. It was very annoying and an unpleasant stay. I wouldn't recommend anyone visits this place!!! Overall I had a terrible experience 🙃
When I came there there was no noise

South AfricaThere lighting was dark because the window view was very closed to the building or Hotel next door, plus there was a urinal smell that was coming some how from the pipe line of the Hotel for some how.
There was no breakfast included from the Hotel in which I was aware of but at least there were shops near by to buy what ever food you wish to buy in which it was a tick for me.

South AfricaEverything was a mess, the room we were booked for was dirty you could tell whoever was in it was very busy and left stains on a linen. Walking to 3rd floor with luggage was so not on. The room was changed to 2nd floor, but we could not even use linen in that room to sleep, we put on our clothes and sleep on the way the linen were dirty and felt uncomfortable to sleep using them. The noise, we had to call reception to ask people in a foyer to lower the noise as they were sitting, drinking and making noise after 9:00 pm as we couldn't rest. In the morning the guy was sleeping on the couches in the foyer, that was creepy.
