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.).

PolandIt's a room in the apartment where the owner lives, so our closet contained her clothes. The bathroom is outside the room; we had it to ourselves. There was no air conditioning, only a fan, so the room was constantly hot. A communal refrigerator would have been useful, at least to have cold water.
The room was in a great location, close to the train station. The owner was very friendly. Delicious breakfasts and coffee; the owner asked us every day what time we wanted breakfast ready. There's an elevator, so you don't have to climb to the fourth floor.

New ZealandHad to share bathroom when we thought it was private but this was not a problem.
Private room in shared home. Very close to train station which was perfect. Marina was going to get up to make us breakfast even though we had to leave at 05 30 to catch train. Was a lovely gesture but we politely declined. Cute little balcony but noisy street. Would definitely recommend, great for one night.

SlovakiaIn our room double bed had just one mattress, so when the other person moved slightly, it was felt and it was waking me up often.
Really close to center of the town, around 10min walk to the port. Our room even had a balcony with a table! Nice bathroom, comfortable seat in the room. Net against mosquitos was extra bonus. There was an elevator in the building, so we didn't need to climb stairs. Really good price for June (with breakfast).

South AfricaThe heavy cigarette smoke, from the host rooms filled all the rooms. There was no provision for tea/coffee in the room, something we have in guesthouses in SA. It became cold during the night and we could not find an extra blanket. It was too late to wake the host and the cupboards in the room were filled with personal clothing of the host (so it seems)
Our host was friendly and helpful. We were thankful for the lift, although small. We needed more than one trip to get the luggage up, better than having to take four flights of stairs. The operation of the lift was actually a pleasant experience. The breakfast was good.

SpainMarina was very kind with us. The bedroom was comfortable and had a balcony. If you want to go to Cinque Terre is very convinient. The train station is very close. If you go by car, there is this free parking lot 10 minuts far from the house called Piazza D'Armi where you can park without paying but be careful with the ones slots only for police (you can receive a fine if you park there).

United KingdomBe aware that there is no Wi-Fi. It is in the description, but I didn't notice when booking. The breakfast is quite basic (pre-packaged items), however the hostess clearly puts care into providing. For example, she offered to make me fresh coffee every morning.
I enjoyed my stay. Very close to the train station (about 7 minutes walk) which is ideal for exploring Cinque Terre. The main restaurant strip is maybe 4 minutes walk away, so close but not close enough for it to be too noisy. My room was spacious - I even had a private balcony which was a huge bonus for me. Although I had to share a bathroom with the hostess, it was still kept clean. You have your own sink area separate from her belongings. The hostess was polite and pleasant to interract with, and she respected personal space. Very easy-going.

United StatesI believe everything was fair for the price. However, I sometimes felt a bit uncomfortable when the owner (Marina) spoke, as I couldn’t tell whether she was upset or if it was simply her way of communicating. I say this with complete honesty. Other than that, everything was fair for the price.
