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.).

LebanonThe bathroom is too small and outdated, not well maintained. The shower was not cleaned. Lot of sands in the shower cabinet. It is overpriced for what you get.
The location is great; especially if you are attending the festival. Just few steps away from the port.

The staff were wonderful, the history of the hotel and restaurant were amazing and visiting the museum of artefacts was so unexpected. This place is rich in history and culture. Knowing that so many world leaders, celebrities and artists have eaten in the restaurant made the experience even richer.

United Kingdom1. I arrive after booking this place weeks in advance, somehow (when they finally come to the reception desk) they are shocked. 2. The girl says she needs to keep my passport because I wasn’t ready to pay immediately, and when I politely ask where she’s keeping it, she became annoyed and said “I’m working here, I’m busy!” Awful attitude, so rude. That’s the most unwelcome I’ve ever felt in years of travelling. 3. They take me to a room and once I put down my bag, the owner says “no someone else needs this room” and they move me to a different one. 4. The rooms are fine, but the soundproofing is terrible, you can hear people as if they are right next you. 5. Early in the morning, the LED lights in my room switched on, this means these bunglers have lazily set up the electrical system to power light for all rooms with one switch. And it woke me up for no reason. 6. They make the poor Bangladeshi woman do everything and she is visibly tired and stressed. 7. The duvet is way too thick. This is a HOT COUNTRY. 8. To top it all off, there is a sign in the room which said something like “we want to provide you a comfortable budget room for your stay, please leave feedback it’s valuable to us”. This is just cheeky. It’s not budget, it’s expensive for such garbage. And I’m pretty sure these owners won’t read this. I didn’t eat at the restaurant. But I saw the prices, and you can find way cheaper, quality food around here. If anyone is thinking of booking here, don’t, because you’ll be extremely disappointed.

Denmark- the fan was dirty and when turned on would disperse dirt all around the room. Cleaning could have been slightly better, but not a deal-breaker at all.
Cozy room with a little outdoor area with a bench and table to relax. Located closely to the lovely little harbour of Byblos. Staff fantastic and made our stay memorable. Wi-Fi fast and reliable, bed comfy. All in all a lovely little place to stay at a decent price.

The three rooms have a comfortable communal setting area and drinking water. It’s clean and the beds are comfortable at a good price. The wifi was excellent.
