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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

IsraelThe mattresses were not the most comfortable, really sink down. Same for the pillows.
Property is close to the lake, literally one minute away. The included summer card is really good value if you want to go on the boat trip, the Krimml waterfalls, and the Top of Salzburg among other attractions. The host, Sanne, was really kind, friendly, and generous. She makes excellent morning eggs and the breakfast is as good as it gets in Zell am See. The self check-in is really convenient and hassle-free.

Czech RepublicI do recommend this "Max" place to stay. I was very satisfied with the comfort in the single room as well as with the calm there. All information provided was reliable. Location is simply the best (railway station is 10 minutes walk and everything else you reach by 5 minutes walk ...public-beach, ferry, bus-station (Postplatz), Billa supermarket etc. ... I consider the local Zell am See summer-mobility-ticket as a fantastic tool which enables to enjoy wide range of attractions for free or with noticeable discount.

SwedenNo AC and the train went out side. Not many trains at all during night but if you are wake up easy, you will hear the train. We had to sleep with open window due to the weather and no AC. When we closed the window, you did not hear the train.
The staff was brilliant. Love our breakfast host, she was so nice and friendly. She cooked omelets for all if you wanted. She made her own fruit drinks in the morning. From the middle of the day you could take beer, prosecco and wine (bottles) from the kitchen, just wrote your room number and what you have had on a paper and we left the hotel end of the stay, we paid for it, not expensive at all. 2-5 minutes walk to the bathing "beach". 10 minutes to nearest lift to the mountain. 2 min walk to all restaurates and bars.

Breakfast. Excellent and great omelettes . Both the two ladies in charge, Sanne and Katrin were very helpful and assisted with the summer card. Located near railway line but you can adjust for that. Close to main twon. Opposite park/pool and lake for a swim etc. We would definitely recommend and go back again. Great Hosts in an outstanding area for the whole family with many activites in Summer or Winter
