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.).

United KingdomBed was too hard
Great location! Easy self check in and check out. Is just a place to sleep nothing else,. The room I stayed didnt have any ventilation at all, with the AC was ok but something to bear in mind.

Malaysiafirst room that we stayed, the room was lacking a bit of space so it was hard to move around with 4 people and aircond was hot but luckily the PIC was quick to action and gave us a free upgrade to a family room so we had more space to move around but the stairs in the family room was hard to walk on because of how limited space on the steps esp its metal so it makes it pain and harder to walk up but overall, a good room and a good stay with the affordable price :)
that is near to restaurants and places that we want to travel to

MalaysiaThe floor is a bit dusty. The place is a bit cramped for 2 queen beds. These are just minor parts of of it. Overall, they are all good.
Love how it easy to reach the place. It's just a few steps away from the jetty. The easy self-check in system is really conducive for people who plans on checking in anytime they want.

HungaryI know check-in through WhatsApp messages and emails is the norm today, and younger people probably prefer it this way, but I just want to put it out here that for us older folks it can be pretty annoying. You just arrived to a new city, you might not have had a chance to get a SIM card, and you get the check-in info through WhatsApp that you don't have access to. And when we asked for WiFi from the shop assistant in the convenience store downstairs, she said there was no Wifi. It turned out later that of course there was Wifi, she just couldn't be bothered to provide the code. So we went to the restaurant across the street (Boston Cafe, great one), paid for dinner, and could use their wifi, and could access the entrance code. Of course, all of this happened because of the last minute booking I mentioned before, but we could have avoided the hassle if the cashier in the shop were a tad bit less rude. I usually don't complain about behaviour of service people, I know they make very little money, but she was unnecessarily rude to us on two other occasions. Just saying, maybe she doesn't even belong to the hotel. All in all, no big deal, has nothing to do with the hotel facilities.
It's located in the Unesco World Heritage area of Georgetown, within walking distance to everything. Our kids liked that the room had bunk beds. Nice deco in the hallway. We originally booked a different hotel a mile away, but upon arrival we decided that we can't possibly spend 3 nights there, so we booked this one, and literally 10 minutes later we turned up here. The Georgetown Inn turned out to be a lot better hotel at a lot better location for a couple of bucks more. So I recommend this place, it's a great value for money. If I return to Penang, I will book it again.

United KingdomRooms are not sound proof so got woken up in the night by a loud group in the corridor who had just arrived back however this is not a fault of the hotel.
Excellent location short walking distance to all main attractions. Communication for check in and check out was detailed and easy to follow. Building felt secure and safe. There is a small convenience shop next door which was useful. Room was as expected, clean and comfortable.

United KingdomHonestly the property was fabulous for what we needed. We knew that we were unlikely to have a window and we do struggle a bit waking up and feeling fresh without natural daylight so if that will greatly impact you then it’s worth noting. We would stay there again though!
Super easy check in, amazing communication with host- they were sooo fast to reply and really helpful with where to go for coffee and help with buses. Shop downstairs was great. Great location for the ferry and easy walk to areas like love lane etc. we loved a coffee shop called Coffee lane which did the most amazing peanut butter toast with eggs- must go!!! Grab was so easy to get everywhere and we got a grab to the national park for a hike and boat ride.
