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 KingdomOne of the hardest beds I have ever slept on. Unable to pay for combined accommodation/meal/drinks/breakfast till the following day. Room had to be paid for on arrival, no exceptions. Menu extremely limited.
Location excellent, next door to the lighthouse. Bar and restaurant inside premises

SwitzerlandNice, quiet location next to the lighthouse of Shabla. Our room had nice see view. Small restaurant with good food. It’s a good starting point if you want to see the north of the Black see coast.

SpainBathroom was difficult to use: tiny space, shower directly on the floor, electric water heater adding to the already suffocating heat of 2023's month of August. Nothing to put one off, though.
Location is something anyone would appreciate. The host also provides nice tasty traditional dishes at the small restaurant downstairs.

RomaniaStrangely, the bedsheets were too small for the bed (good that I had my own, only by chance) and the light was barely working. The rest was all good for this price range.
Great location-wise with a delightful view and the food was great too!

United KingdomWe stayed 15 min. The air-conditioning didn't work and it was almost 40C and the owner agreed that we should find another place as he had other business to attend and could not provide any fix. The balcony was not actually facing the see, the room was very small, like a cabin. One of the reception ladies was not nice at all.

Czech RepublicWhen there's a southern breeze, your nose will possibly detect the nearby oil facility. The village is quite run-down, although compared with older photos there have been some improvements. We arrived for a two-night stay in the off-season, so we met the hosts only in the evening on arrival (and that was the only time the restaurant was open).
The location and natural surroundings are great. The restaurant downstairs serves tasty meals (when it's open). Our top-floor room was comfortable, with views of the sea at a distance.

RomaniaThe menu shoul be more explicit but you will get it. Poor translation from Bulgarian to English.
If something is too good to be true, most probably it ain't! But sometimes miracles do happen! We got a room here for 3 nights at 75 euros mid season! We thought we will dislike it; we thought it is impossibly to get a decent room with balcony and seaview at this price. We had our mind set on "if we find it ok we stay, if not, we pay and find something else". We loved it!!! You get much more than it is possibly for this price and even more. The room: is small but very very clean and with everything you might need, much more than expected ; queen size bed, AC, TV, fridge, towels, own bath with shower and window, balcony and quite a view. You cannot ask for more at this price, you get much more than expected. Personell: big big 10. Thank you Food : big 10 for service, taste and price We will go again! Clean, kneet, relax. Extremly good balance price vs quality.

RomaniaI was charged 60Lv/night instead of 54Lv/night which was the price advertised on Booking.com. (They said that B.com was only "for reservation"). The room was cleaned only once over the 5 days we stayed there (but they provided us with a broom. Lucky us!). The room was above the restaurant and it smells like cooked fish all over the place. Nobody speaks english, so I had nobody to complain to. Also, all the information/instruction notices on the walls are written only in Bulgarian, so we didn't understand a word. The room has a small terrace, but there is too much dust from the cars passing by on the dirt road and in the evening there are too many mosquitos and a strong sulphur smell in the air, so it's quite unusable.
The property is close to the Shabla Lighthouse with the Shabla beach and the Little Sea beach at a walking distance. There was a free parking near the house.
