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.).

SlovakiaThe only thing is that I didn't know I will have to pay for my stay in cash as the min. limit to spend is 100€.to be able to pay by card. Thankfully the nearest ATM (not the blue & yellow one) was 15 mins. by walk. I somehow didn't know about this policy. Another thing to keep in mind is that the church bell was loud and would not allow me to sleep peacefully but it is obviously not a fault of the property just a little bonus for staying in the city centre so it is not a minus.
The location was good, having a little terrace just for myself was a nice surprise, the hotel is located in quiet area, so there was no noise from the street The staff was nice too.

TurkeyThe temperature of the room was not sufficient, we were a little cold, and the double beds were two single beds combined, so this sometimes made it uncomfortable and the duvets were like baby duvets. Instead of a double quilt, they put two half single quilts, which is why I deducted the points. In terms of price performance, weekday prices are very good, but since we bought at the last minute on the weekend, it seemed too high for this hotel.
We found the hotel the last night before our trip, so its location was very good for us. The woman at the reception was helpful and friendly. The room was small but okay for a night or two. The room and bathroom were clean. The bed was comfortable.

NetherlandsIt is a small hotel. Could have been cleaner in my opinion and the value for money was very unbalanced. We paid €700 for a room for one night, which is not worth €60. Even though there was a trade fair in town. It is just not justice the price.
Location and breakfast was good. Staff very friendly.

United KingdomNeeds air conditioning. There was a small fan which was pretty much useless. The shower was very small with just a curtain which was practically right up against you or water would leak out everywhere. No iron. There was a fridge but it was really noisy and the balcony was small with not much outlook. Wouldn't book if travelling in the warmer months.
Very central with a little shop just across the road. Big comfortable bed.

United StatesWe weee on 3 rd floor , no elevator. We had booked 2 rooms , our friends had hot room on sunny side of building. very uncomfortable.
one of few places where we could store our bikes( down narrow steep stairs) in basement. Our room was on shade side of hotel which made it comfortable, we had small balcony. Room was clean and beds we’re comfortable. It’s about a 10 minute walk to Dom, Aldi, Lidl and lots of restaurants.

Breakfast was basic but plentiful. The location was perfect for me and the staff was helpful. The name hotel might be a bit misleading because I would classify it as a bed and breakfast; however it ticked the boxes for my needs.

NetherlandsThe hotel has no elevator, for us no problem, but needs to be made clear in the advertisement. The apartment on 4th level we were in has only a very light curtain in front of the large windows, there was no blocking of sun so around 05.00 the rooms were in full light. During the day the lack of sun blocking causes the apartment to feel like a green-house. This will be an issue certainly in summer months. I told the staff about this potential improvement, they told me they would work on it. Hopefully for next guests this will be solved, the cheap sunblock foil that was sticked on the outside of the windows is clearly not effective.
Simple hotel with friendly personnel. Beds were very good. Shower was fine. Breakfast was great. Rooms very spacious and clean. Overall we had a good experience!! thanks for that Following remarks are only to improve the hotels services.
