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.).

Good location, very close to the centre and the main station. Basic decor - but clean, the room reminded me of a student halls. Very good that they have luggage storage lockers.

ItalyThe type of curtains used for the windows does not allow sufficient daylight: having to choose between privacy and brightness, I had to penalise brightness.
Location is excellent, very close to the city center and main streets, the room was good for my short stay and considering that I was in Malaga for business and alone. The room does not have a hairdryer, but I found the deposit system for getting one from reception very convenient. Please also consider providing a hairdryer diffuser

United KingdomAs I said previously, we stayed twice on this trip. Once, we had a view over the main street which was fine. The second room overlooked a wall and a back alley, which was a bit meh. Ask for a room overlooking the street if you want a bit more interest. I suppose a kettle and tea-making facilities would be nice because, being Brit, we drink pints of the stuff first thing. But at the price, we were happy to drink water till we got to a cafe. Look elsewhere if that bothers you.
Firstly, the staff deserve a great deal of praise; they are charming, professional and efficient. They helped us to sort a small problem with a minimum of fuss and no expense, so win-win. The location is good; we tend to walk everywhere and it's an excellent base for exploring Malaga. It is a shortish walk from the train and bus stations and the airport bus stops nearby, just outside el Corte Ingles. The rooms were compact (we stayed before and after a trip to Cadiz) but everything we wanted was there; we could hire a hairdryer or iron for 10 Euros deposit. All perfectly clean and the bed was very comfy. It was an affordable option for us for a couple of nights and worked out just fine.
