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.).

GeorgiaThe room might be OK for a short trip or if you're traveling alone, but for a longer stay (or if you are with a partner) I would advise something bigger and more convenient. The room is also pretty dark as the window is super small. We were staying for 8 days and didn't have enough space for our things
The area is amazing, nice cafes and restaurants nearby, very quiet but safe. Also the guesthouse is located near the bus station and subway station - very convenient. You can also order laundry for a reasonable price. Wi-fi is also good. Hosts are also very helpful. The area is also located pretty close to some tourist sights where you can walk on foot

Canada- bed was hard as a rock - i was moved to the very top floor where the water shower did not work. the reason was because the water pressure couldn't reach to the top. this is valid but why not fix it? the water pressure for cold water works but the water pressure for hot water is literally non-existent. - thankfully i talked to the host and reception and was moved to the third floor where there was working shower - wifi was nonexistent. didn't work whatsoever, i had to hotspot myself - you could tell that the place was not commonly clean due to the build up in dust
location was great - close to itaewon - close to metro - close to good food and the attractions - place was quiet - free water and instant coffee was nice - giving the towels was nice

United StatesThe hot water didn't work when I arrived. The staff did appologize, though it still wasn't working when my stay (one week) ended. Other than this, I have no complaints.
The facilities are basic, but totally clean. The location is also quite good. 1) Right next to a metro station. 2) Plenty of good dining, including 24-hour diners, nearby. 3) Good coffee shops, and regular shopping nearby. If you check in after hours, no worries. The front door is never locked, just push the button to open. Also, your room will be left unlocked for you, with key waiting inside. Yes, Korea really is that safe! Unlike some hotels, they don't clean your room unless you ask, which I actually prefer.

Czech RepublicI appreciated the location of the guesthouse. It was located one stop away from Seoul train station. Subway and bus was short walking distance away from the Guesthouse which made my Seoul sightseeing very easy and convenient. The staff was very accommodating and friendly, letting me check-in earlier with an additional cost because the room was ready.

PolandThere is no fridge, neither in the room nor in the shared space. The room is fitted with a tiny window, hidden behind what looks like doors to a closet. It's shown on the pictures so there is no misunderstanding but that apparent lack of a window still makes the room feel a bit claustrophobic
Convenient location, next to line no 4 metro stop and a couple of minutes walk from line no 1. 10 min on foot to Seoul Station. Friendly staff and flexible check in - my room was ready earlier than expected.
