Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomRoom was very disorganised, clutter in the wardrobe etc. Random wooden chairs in the room also. The overall aesthetic of the room was a little bit creepy but nevertheless the bed was comfy and okay for what we needed to stay there for. Our room also was a maze to get to, you had to go in through the main door, outside to a cluttered courtyard, up a set of metal stairs to a patio, through another set of doors, up more internal stairs in a different building to arrive at our room.
Comfy bed, good location, friendly receptionist.

United KingdomThe room was very dusty and the walls had lots of stains and chips all over. Dirty shower. Felt very unclean. The lock to our room was dodgy and felt like it would break any second - as two young females travelling together we felt quite unsafe. We ended up staying somewhere else for the night. A good place to stay if you're desperate for a cheap place to stay but don't recommend.
Good location for travelling as it's right next to train station.

Czech RepublicI understand that furniture can't be always the best, but something that could be always the best is cleanlinnes. Unfortunately cleaning was far from good (sticky floor, dust in wardrobe, little bit of mold in bathroom). After one night my friend got bed bugs bites over her body. I can't say it was from the bed, or maybe she catched something in metro, but she got bites all over her.. I can say, that i am young and i overcome many things, but this was the last visit for me.
I like the kitchen, that was awailable for every host And that they Changed our room immediately after we told the stuff about bed bugs bites.

United KingdomRoom stank of smoke. No toiletries and the bath had brown stains in. No way to open a window. Fan was provided but covered in dust. TV in room, but didn't work. Nowhere to make tea or coffee, but not sure I'd have wanted to. Enough beds for all 3 of us. Room was noisy with traffic noise, not dampened by windows at all. Curtains all smelt of smoke. Bathroom radiator was the only one working and it compounded the smell of smoke from.the bathroom.
Location was close to the tube and the Abbs experience we were going to. Check in was quick and easy. Bedding was clean. Plenty of plugs to charge phones.

United KingdomThere were a lot of stairs to get up to the room, at first we didn't have hot water but staff sorted that quickly.
Perfect location for accessing the tube service. Our room was a little studio so it had a small kitchenette and because we were so high up the noise of the busy road/other guests was minimal. Room was clean and comfortable.

NetherlandsTV at some nights was not too good, falling out or with disturbance of a lot of small squares...diturbing the sound as well, but I did n't mind too much as I do not watch TV a lot...
The bed was fine, the room and bathroom could have been a little cleaner..I am glad there was one chair and I would have liked coffee/tea facilities in my room, but I could use the kitchen for boiling water so that was okay..! The outside stairs were a bit akward for me, (because of my age) but I did manage, except with the luggage I needed help. The man at the reception kindly carried the luggage up to my room..! Because the room was at the back I do realize it was more quiet than at the front with much more traffic-noise...Ofcourse some nights there was still some noise from outside or from other rooms, but for London it was alright!
