How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewDogs allowed in the dining room. Friendly staff. Clean and modern room. Possible to reserve paid parking nearby. In the town centre and within walking distance to beach, supermarkets, tram station.
The room was very small (almost impossible to completely open a medium-sized suitcase. Very strong and almost unbearable sewage smell in the bathroom. The room was not soundproof; street noise was audible even with earplugs. Breakfast: I would have preferred less choice but higher quality items. They charge €10 per day per dog but NO extras were provided. There were NO dog beds, treats or bowls.
We are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your stay. We will certainly take your feedback on board and investigate what could be causing the odour nuisance. As for the dogs, we may not have been clear enough in our communication. We do provide dog treats and food bowls (but most owners do not want this). And the additional cost mainly relates to the extra cleaning work involved...

Verified reviewLovely stay in a good location. Stayed here during the heatwave for the aircon and proximity to coast and also easy train to Ghent/Bruges. Suited my needs. Supermarkets near by and lots of restaurants. friendly staff
The only thing is the room was very small, which was fine as I was a solo traveller and only needed it for sleep. But it really would have been a struggle for two people!
Dear Elisabeth, Thank you for giving us a great score; we always enjoy reading that. As you yourself point out, the room is designed for one person; it is indeed too small for two people. Thank you for mentioning that there is a friendly person available. Kind regards, Dennis

Verified reviewNicely updated, close to beach front if you want it. Pet friendly. Decent breakfast.
Parking is difficult. Quite Small rooms, stairs are not for the faint of heart. No matter how old, take the elevator unless there’s a fire of course.

Verified reviewthe breakfast.
I booked a hotel with parking and there is none. We found a map in an envelope with two private parking lots that were hard to find. They were very expensive and a 15-minute walk from the hotel. For me, who is a mom and has 2 children, the most important thing when I book a hotel is breakfast and parking. Unfortunately, there is none.
We have 5 parkingplaces for rent. You have to book a place if you want it; it costs 20€/24h. The public parking I recommend is 10 minutes away fom the hotel and is cheaper. I apologise if this is not clear on the website.

Verified reviewIf a hotel is family-friendly, at least add a changing station for a baby somewhere. Saying to family with a baby to change his diaper on a table is not pleasant at all.
