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.).

CroatiaStaying at Xaviera Hollander’s BnB is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. Not only do you get an excellent bed and a delicious breakfast, but you'll also feel a part of Amsterdam and Dutch history. With her lifelong dedication to breaking taboos around sex and freedom, starting in the 1960s, Xaviera has become a pivotal figure in Dutch culture, shaping societal norms. Don’t miss out – make sure you book this place.

FranceThe second stair leading to the best place, it was very steep and too much for our dog, but they gave us another room, perfect. They really try to find solutions for you. With a lot of heart. great people, trust them !
Really nice people, Xaviera and Philippe, They are animal friendly, our dog became a friend with their dog Luna within 24 hours, and they are very interesting people when you ask for personal life experiences. Wonderful people, great place, great heart, great soul, a place to recommend. Xaviera worked as a diva with famous people and she may tell you her story, it's very interesting and gives you a lot of informations. The moment when you take your coffee in teh morning is really great, our dog played outside with their dog, and we had very interesting conversations, with many good infos about Amsterdam ! I really recommand this place. May you be blessed my friends.

Germanywhilst it wasn't unclean, some areas could have been better if there had been some extra attention to cleanliness because of the guests, wasn't an issue for me but if you have allergies, and you don't like carpets then you could suffer.
excellent customer service, very supportive to meet needs such as getting in the room very early, asking what you like for breakfast and at what time. Very quaint, with lots of memorabilia, books and photos (one of the owners is a renowned author). it felt like you are staying in a home rather than a b&b or hotel, I travel a lot both personally and professionally, I tend to prefer more neutral places to stay, but my studio at the top of the house allowed me to do that, it was spacious, and had it's own facilities. I was also thrilled to have got to know the story of the owner, and bought her 1st book ...

United StatesThis is a wonderful little B&B. Very convenient for traveling into the old city etc. by tram (or bicycle). It has parking if you drive to the B&B. We had the attic room, which was very nice and roomy (but you have to climb some steep stairs so a big heavy suitcase would be a problem. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back.

EstoniaThe extra bed that was supposed to make the room a twin bed one, was quite small and flimsy. Was ok for the few nights we stayed, but if booking for longer stays or if you have a sensitive back would avoid. The breakfast was on the lighter side, with not many options - bread
The hostess and her husband were super nice and friendly. They provided us with extra set of keys upon request. The place had homely feeling and was really close to the RAI conference centre. Even the city centre was not too far away. The room even had a nice balcony.

United KingdomThe 'Private Bathroom' although it was private, was actually across the landing it would have been better had it been in the room, it didn't really feel private.
We had a large room with a 'Private Bathroom' a Balcony and a fridge in the room, plenty of sockets and very good wifi. The owners and staff were very friendly. Philip was very helpful and had lots of good advice for getting around, even gave us a lift to the market one day. Breakfast was very good and typically continental, which made a welcome change, eggs cooked to order and preference.
