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 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.).

SwedenIt definitely wasn’t worth the high price that I ended up paying for this room. I had an impression that I was paying only for the great location. It was a double room without balcony,just a simple twin bed - room with a small bathroom.,the door was very difficult to open and lock (old door knobs,locks,the key barely turning). The room had a small fridge,air conditioner,water heater…and some other items like the hair dryer or adapters were available at the reception. There was no real covers on the bed,only some type of decorative fabric over the sheets,that wasn’t even clean (white stains). On the other hand,the hotel staff was very kind and helpful,and everything was going smoothly,check in was fast,the room was ready even before 14h,and I could check out very early as well. Location is really amazing,I just wish the rooms were cleaner and better equipped.

ItalyThere is a lift but starts from level 1 not at entrance level. Lack of lift makes going up to reception with luggage to carry up a flight of at least 25 steps a hard task.
The location is central in Sliema. The view is lovely The sea, boats and ships that sail by, music from lido next to the sea. Restaurants are abundant in the area.

United KingdomI ended up asking to be moved to a sea view room, I would say it’s worth it as the first room was dark and at the back of the hotel. If you don’t mind that then it’s fine, but I definitely needed more light! It’s dated - very clean but dated so if you are bothered about having a modern room, may not be for you! But it was comfortable for me!
Very clean. Well located, great for walking along the harbour, to St Julian’s, not far from the ferry port etc so perfect location for exploring. Well positioned for bars and restaurants etc too. Staff were really friendly and helpful, nothing was too much. There is a small fridge in the room and the a/c all made the stay comfortable

SlovakiaThe shower is terrible. It's tiny and only has a curtain that is way too long and kind of disgusting. No ventilation in the bathroom nor a window. The room was dark. It only has one tiny window in the corner of the room and the view into the wall so practically no daylight. Shower dirty and I mean full of black dirt upon arrival.
Location was great. The receptionist (a guy - sorry, didn't get his name) was quite helpful and very nice.

AustriaThe streets are really loud usually, and the balcony door doesnt have a good isolation, so cold air and wind come in easly. Overall the rooms could get cleaned better, the windows, bathroom and there was a lot of dust on the walls that were pretty visible to anyone. The towels weren't always spotless . The shower was horrible. So little place and the shower curtains were too long,hanging over the shower drain and blocking the water from going down, almost drowning the bathroom each time. The tiles and door frames were also in a bad shape.
It was close to stores and has a pretty view from the balcony, the staff was friendly and helpful.The bed was comfortable, the little fridge had enough room in it

CanadaThe facilities could definitely use an upgrade. The bed mattresses really need to be upgraded as well. Lighting works but you will either get a complete white dentist light or a light that you might need to use your phone light for (very dark).
The price is good for the location you get. It's right near the ocean and a bunch of good restaurants. Staff are friendly. If you decide on the balcony room, it is worth it, nice view. The room is good enough for a short stay.
