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.).

MalaysiaShower heater not consistent, either too hot or too cold. Water pressure also low. My room was noisy as it was facing the main street. Probably because I left my windows open. Staircase all the way up. No lift / elevators

United Arab EmiratesBoking.com booking (though I booked for 3 people) and actual hotel booking was different and I had to pay extra which I wasn't told till last minute and I wasn't happy. Booking.com and hotels need to sort this out. Breakfast was not great and if you're a bit late most items were over and not refilled (or taking time).
The best part of the hotel (room) was the view from the window of the mountain range. Absolutely awesome!!! Had arranged for a pick from the airport which was arranged (for a fee). Room was good and spacious. WiFi was adequate around the property. Staff were helpful and mostly comfortable with English. Location was quite convenient to a lot of places that can be covered on foot and lot's of eating places around.

IndiaIf rooms were slightly bigger. But location makes up for the size of the room.
It’s location. Hotel Manager Feroz, People at Reception - Gulshad and Dilan/Dilon. Feroz accommodated us for early checkin at 10:00 AM and breakfast, since he did not have the room we booked, which was with balcony. Next day he arranged room with balcony. Gulshad and Dilan helped us with all our questions regarding places to visit nearby and suggested us couple of places. These 3 people were great. They have very good restaurant and bar inside hotel.right next to the hotel they have Skandalist bar. Opposite there is Pasta and Bar. Late Night Show, Nikulin and couple of other bars are within walking distance. Blah blah bar, Barmaglot and famous restaurant Navat - Seyfullina branch is close by. Good location. Even supermarkets are within walking distance. All the places are within 10-20mins reach. Arbat, Green Bazaar, going to Shymbulak, Kok tobe is easy. Even our pick up spot for Day tour was also nearby from here. Reception staff and manager speak in English and that is a gift in Kazakhstan. That helped us a lot.

United Arab EmiratesI will appreciate if they could improve their wifi connection. The connection used to close or no signal. Well we didn't come here to use wifi but we needed it for searching especially for those who travel in a new country like me. It's good I got Kazakhstan number with data. So I used my data as an alternative.
As what everyone was reviewing the highlight in this hotel is their breakfast! Location is at the center as well. Its walking distance to groceries, cafes, restaurants and bus stop. It's easy to access your transportation. There is even Chinese restaurant near the hotel. You just need to go around to discover everything. The staff at the reception can speak English so language barrier is not a problem. I highly recommend this hotel for those who are looking for budget hotel at the center of the city.
