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.).

MalaysiaThe bathroom cleanliness needs improvement.
I thougt it was a private room but I when I came it's actually a hostel room which can accommodate around 5 people (1 queen bed, 1 single bed, and 1 bunk bed) but it was advertised as a private room. I read wrongly by thinking it was a 2 star hotel but it's a hostel lol. So I stayed alone in this a spacious simple clean room. It was a quiet night. It's a self check-in by WhatsApp.

SwedenThe staff felt a bit rude, even though we only communicated through text so it can be hard to tell. The water pressure was quite bad.
It's a quiet place with walking distance from the bus terminal. There is also local busses close to the location. For a night or 2 if you're doing something in the area it's a good choice.

IndonesiaBathroom, eventhough it is sharing bathroom, the facilities are good and complete so far. However there is a short window to the small balcony, which the balcony can be accessed by anyone. It was not comfortable, since the big window is quite short, it is not really blurry window. It is very important to have someone standby to help the customer or atleast during check-in and check-out, since it does not have lift. It is very difficult when you have room in 3rd floor (which the floor was not mentioned in the booking) and you have a lot and heavy belongings.
The spacious room, with comfy bed

United StatesPrice should have been a bit less for a room with shared bathroom.
This hostel is located close to airport which is nice if you need this which I did. Very clean basic hostel. Since I arrived very late everything was communicated to me via Whats App. Different but this system worked very well. Taxi drivers did not know where it was so be sure to have location info with you. Public bus stand located nearby.
