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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

The location was good, the subway and buses were outside the building.

South KoreaThe lighting was a problem. The AC was not good enough we were feeling very very cold. The bathroom was the worse. When you brush using the sink, the sink leakes water. The toilet was not flushing well completely. Was just dissapointed with the place. It looks extremely different from the picture
The bed is what i liked.

PhilippinesThe rooms were smelly. We were given three rooms and all rooms had foul smell. I cannot describe the smell but maybe because of the CR or the bedsheets? There were leaks from the sink in the CR and the aircon. The bedsheets also smelled bad. The airconditioning units do not function well. But our biggest complaint really were the foul smell of all the rooms that we had.
The best thing about the property is that it is very near the subway station. The staff were also responsive and helpful.

FinlandThe beds didn't have proper bedsheets and many of the rooms do not have windows. The internet was also down sometimes and I had to wait long periods to be able to reconnect.
It was very accessible with a metro station right in front of the entrance and the quality was good for the cheap price.

FranceA horror. We were assigned a room in which the toilet was clogged with excrement and with sheets that had a persistent smell of urine not to mention the hair in the bed. So the staff changed us to another room. In the other room, mold covered the wallpaper. Everything was moldy, without exception, as shown in the photos: the walls, the sink, not to mention the shower, etc ... Again, there was hair everywhere. The temperature of the shower is also very difficult to adjust. The air conditioning, very old, combined with the mold gave us sore throats. This establishment is a disgrace and we ask you, who are reading this comment, not to book, even if the price is good. Having traveled all over the world, I have never seen an establishment like this. Do not book this hotel, for anything in the world.

NetherlandsThe room was full of insects, the elevator to the room felt unsave. Mold everywhere, found an used condom on the ground. I got out of there as soon as possible. Insane!! Honestly I have been to many hostels before. And it was so bad it made me laugh. Though I doubt many people would be laughing in my situation. I'm 19 and my room is cleaner.

And the lobby (if u could call it as a lobby) seemed so dirty, we could imagine the rooms. We had to move another hotel of them without extra fee, but it was so dirty too.

PhilippinesThere was manure on the side of the elevator and we had to run every time (without breathing). The stairway was locked so there was no other option. Upon arriving on our floor from the elevator, there were still stairs so it was confusing and unsympathetic with our luggage. There was also no one around to aid us if we needed help. We waited for the call when checking in. Upon answering, they just instructed us to get one of the keys exposed right in front of us - this could've easily been sent as a text.
Near the bus/subway stations, and near the convenience stores. Laundry was also very useful. The kitchen wasn't that helpful since there was only 1 set of utensils and the refrigerator reeked.

SingaporeBooked a standard room, but was given a bunk bed room, suspected because the room I booked wasn't being clean. The bunk bed room toilet wasn't clean, it had the women's blood stains that I'm the one that is cleaning it! The hot water temperature was unadjustable, the water was too hot! The washroom's outdoor surroundings were dirty, dark stains (it meant a long time never cleaned) it's quite disgusting that I dont even wanted to look at it and take photos. The next day they helped me change the room and the toilet doesn't even have a basin!! U can imagine urself how's bad experience for ur other routine's tasks without a proper basin. And the person said not all rooms have basins like shown in the photo. It is considered dishonest that the hotel didn't indicate that and didn't demonstrate proper photo. The toilet door was old and moulded. but at least it is clean. The corner inside the room showed dust and dark stains like the previous room. Whereby this time the blanket made my body itchy, I couldn't sleep well. Yet 6plus morning awakened by the main road traffic noise and couldn't fall back asleep! Dissapointing! Yet I paid a more expensive price than my other hotel that I'm gonna to give good rating and recommend. Totally not worth
Only the location is good. Other than that, nothing is good
