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 reviewNada, todo muy mal. Don’t go here, it is a fraud. Very dirty, rooms with no walls, no cealing, no doors, no privacity at all, I could use the toilet because it was very dirty, preferred to do my things in a restaurant than in this dirty hostel. THEY TAKE YOUR MONEY FOR NO SERVICE AT ALL
Everything was dirty, very uncomfortable, very disrespectful owner, the room has not cealing, no doors, they use a towel as a door, you sleep literally on the terrace, with the humidity of the night

Verified reviewAlibaba hostel is at the outskirts of chefchaouen, guaranteeing a great view on the beautiful city and its surrounding mountains. Ajoub, the manager is a really kind soul and I really enjoyed chatting with him. I booked the rooftop for two days but since it was supposed to be raining on the second day I could easily move downstairs. Ajoub really made me like visiting a friend in a wonderful place :) thank you!

Verified reviewThe house is located outside the medina, 10' on foot, away from the noisy streets and has a view on the city and the mountains. Plenty of parking and totally safe to walk around also by night. The host is as lovely as the other guests I met there. Totally recommended.
Nothing.

Verified reviewStaff were excellent, really friendly. Beautiful view of the stars at night from the rooftop. If you like something different would very much recommend. Really good location - easy to make your way to the Medina.
Everything was near perfect - shower could do with a couple of improvements, and WiFi would be nice, however nice to be without it - especially on a rooftop as nice as this one.

Verified reviewI absolutely loved sleeping on a rooftop, with ingenious room divisions and an outstanding view!
The bathroom could be improved on many aspects (sink drainage especially).

Verified reviewThe vibes were very chill and views were great
Very basic accommodation and quite a fair way out of town. Not a lot to do when you’re there.

Verified reviewA quiet location with a fantastic view of the village and surrounding mounttains, just ten minutes away from the medina on foot. Youthful, open minded staff and guests creating a modern cosmopolitan atmosphere. We slept at the rooftop hoots wich being late summer was a marvel. The shared bathroom was tidy and ultra-clean. A place for those on a budget who don't mind minor issues regarding neighbouring plots being not fully urbanised yet
All was better than good, more so for the price.
