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.).

New ZealandDouble bed in the family room was very firm and uncomfortable, but not a big deal given the price and other amenities.
Great location, 5 mins from the metro and close to lots of good food options/stores. Staff were so helpful and friendly with great local tips. Great value for money! We got upgraded to a huge room - had everything we needed.

SwitzerlandThe room furniture and the bathrooms are really basic. We didn’t really meet other travelers so keep in mind it’s not really your typical social backpacking hostel
Good hostel, held by a very nice old lady. It was clean, calm and easy going. There is a kitchen with everything you need to cook and ample space in the fridges. Nice chill area with couches and hammocks.

United StatesThis was the least private "private" room we've ever seen, with a window through to the common area and directly adjacent to the laundry room there were constantly people coming and going sometimes late in the night. The kitchen feels inaccessible from the upper floors. The hot water ran out quickly during my showers. The bed was uncomfortable and the room was very small. Overall this place is a good value but if you want a room with actual privacy I would look elsewhere.
Excellent location on a quiet street near the metro station and estadio, numerous restaurants and bars in walking distance, clean and spacious. The lady who runs the place is nice and helpful.

United KingdomAs others mentioned, no soap in the bathrooms, feel it would be easy to put some in. And also the shower in the bathroom flooded the floor with water when someone used it, so can be slippery and a bit dangerous
Location is very good, just a few minutes from a metro stop so easy to get around, and close to lots of restaurants. The room was spacious and comfortable. There was a kitchen, although we didn't use it this time, it looked well equipped, and there's free coffee. The restaurant attached does a nice breakfast in the morning.

United KingdomNot a big thing at all, but our room had frosted glass windows towards the downstairs kitchen and another bathroom next door, which meant that light came into our room at night if anyone was using the other spaces. A curtain could resolve this?
Nice clean guesthouse in good location on a residential street close to restaurants. Helpful owner. Lovely cats and dogs also live here! Complimentary coffee in the mornings was very good. This was great value place to stay - it felt more authentic given the building style and location, and it was nice to sit at the balcony looking out onto the street outside.

United KingdomThis was a lovely hostel to stay in for a couple of nights in Medellin! Our flight was delayed and the owner was very kind and let us check in horribly late. The hostel itself was clean and had cute decor. We also loved the breakfast (I think it was my favourite out of all the accommodation we stayed at in South America!). It was in a convenient location and was a very short walk to a subway station that had links to the centre. I would definitely recommend staying here!
