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.).

UkraineGreat location, easy access to nice restaurants and bars, close to the water. Very quiet room, perfect sound isolation. We were deeply impressed by how clean the room was, the stuff was doing an amazing job. Also we would like to mention an incredibly friendly hostess, who helped us with recommendations and was easy to reach in case of any issues or questions. Highly recommend and we would stay there again.

SwitzerlandNothing. Room isn’t huge if that’s something you care about but the bed is very comfy and the room has beautiful authentic tiling.
The bed was very comfy, location was unbeatable, staff very friendly. Complimentary water, tea, and coffee were left for us each day which was very nice. The owner was outstandingly pleasant and thoughtful, even providing excellent local recommendations for the area.

United KingdomWe were very happy with everything.
The location of Downtown Inn was perfect, very central to shops and cafes and about a 10 minute walk to the river front, its convenient location really enhanced our stay. Our host Vanda couldn’t have been more helpful, organising a taxi for our return trip which was very early in the morning, to sending links to places she recommended we try and visit. She was so helpful and kind and really, nothing was too much trouble!

Croatia-
I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely perfect, right in the city center, putting you in the heart of everything. There are fantastic restaurants, bars, and a supermarket just steps away, making it incredibly convenient. The room, while small, was very comfortable. I knew about the room size from other reviews, so it met my expectations perfectly. Despite being in the center, the area was surprisingly quiet and peaceful, providing a nice retreat after a day of exploring the city. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its prime location, cozy rooms, and the convenience of nearby amenities. It's an excellent choice for anyone wanting to be in the middle of the action yet enjoy a quiet, restful stay.

TurkeyThe property is located at the heart of touristic center. Vanda is an excellent property owner. She dealt personally with our needs. Very clean and easy to reach place with public transport. Since its at the touristic center avoid the tourist scams around the property. Vanda provided excellent recommendations about where to eat and how to avoid nearby scams. Will definitely be my first choice next time when I visit Lisbon.

United StatesSome difficulty finding it, we walked right past it the first time. The sign is hard to see and from the outside you only see a big brown door. Some confusion on how to enter and where to go once you are inside, instructions could be more clear.
Safe and central location, easy walking to shops and restaurants and many points of interest. Staff was very pleasant and gave us good suggestions on activities. Room was small (as advertised), but clean and comfortable.

Our hostess was very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We had a super-clean bijoux room with a large bathroom and fridge. Lots of little extra touches made our stay very easy - provision of toiletries, bottled water as well as tea and coffee making items; plenty of space for hanging clothes and bags, even a little table and chairs. The bed was very comfortable and shower always hot. Downtown Inn is truly in the heart of Lisbon, with the buzz and relaxation of cafes in the streets outside and yet we heard no noise inside our room due to excellent double layer windows. We could walk everywhere in the main town in minutes (15 mins to the castle, 5 mins to the lift to the convent) or to the trams and buses taking us further afield. Right next door is an amazing cafe - Cafe Niclaus - for breakfast and 2 mins away is a mercado supermarket. On the last day we needed to leave our bags due to a late flight home. On picking them up, we were also able to freshen up in a private restroom. Overall highly recommended.
