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 StatesThe WiFi was horrible- useless is a better word. I ended up turning it off and using my cell data. The air conditioner was not up to the task. It only got up to 28C while we were there and with the unit set to 18C the whole time, it would barely get it down to 24C or so in the room by morning. I told the owner who checked on it and said that it was working fine. It was hard to get to sleep with it that hot in the room early in the evening. It also made a loud gurgling noise every 5-10 minutes.
The location can't be beat. Just steps away from major attractions, restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, etc. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive. Having a full breakfast included was also nice.

IrelandThere was some noise from inside the guest house, plumbing and other guests but nothing too bad. We slept great.
The location was perfect for visiting Sultanahmet and good connections to elsewhere but if you're staying out late you might need to get a taxi, we used Uber from Taksim area, €5 and no problems. The staff were all friendly and helped with anything we needed. Breakfast was very good. Out room was large and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this accommodation.

CanadaThe bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Ceiling was low in the top floor room with a balcony. Room was a bit noisy due to people walk up to the roof patio late at night and early morning. The stairs are in the ceiling of the bathroom
The hosts/owners were wonderful. So helpful and friendly. Breakfast was amazing and the location was perfect.

SerbiaGreat hotel. Kind, caring and friendly hosts. Good cleaning. Good breakfast that will save you a lot of time and money (especially with the new prices in Istanbul). The location is great, everything is nearby. There is a roof terrace. Due to carelessness, the hotel property was slightly damaged by us. The owners forgave us for this and even refused to take money from us. Thank you. I hope I'll be back again.

The hotel is very close to Hagia Sophia which is a big plus. The hotel is clean, the towels are changed daily, there is an elevator to the upper floors, intimate, everything with great taste. Public parking in front to hotel and at 200m from the hotel. But the biggest gain is the family that owns this hotel, they are completely and utterly delightful people, with whom I resonated from the beginning. They are very attentive to the wishes of tourists, always present at the location. Delicious breakfast, homemade cakes and Turkish coffee served in a dreamy setting with old music at the pick-up... ❤️ We can't imagine staying anywhere else the next time we visit Istanbul. Thank you Yesim and Ahmed for everything!

United KingdomNothing negative at all.
In such a competitive market the hosts stand above their competitors. They're a family run guest house and make you feel part of their family. So genuine and warm and cannot do enough for you. They have excellent knowledge of the area and beyond as some hotel chains do not and just give you a leaflet to follow. I cannot fault the hosts or their guesthouse as we truly enjoyed our time there and was made even more memorable by the beautiful couple who own it. Thank you and cannot wait to go back there 🙌

Very hospitable and friendly hosts; comfortable bed with best ever pillows; nice big bathroom towels. Wonderful breakfast in attractive room which also had an outdoor area. We particularly liked the pastries and the offer of Turkish coffee every morning (filter coffee also provided).
