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.).

SpainUnbeatable central location near the Blue Gate (Bab Boujloud ) Multiple reviews highlight how the riad’s location makes exploration of the medina easy and safe.

BelgiumWe were separated from the rest of the group who was placed in another Riad (lower quality, same price). It seems from the Booking reviews that this happened a few times before. The staff was not very kind, always trying to cheat guests to get more money
The bed was very comfy. Located in the heart of Medina and close enough to taxi stands.

NetherlandsIt would have been nice to have relaxing chairs on the rooftop, to be more relaxed upstairs! But off course that is just a recommendation for the riad, our stay was great.
Very kind people, great location, very nice rooms, nice breakfast. Great help with everything from the staff. Very quiet area, very quiet riad, but that off course depends on other guests as well. It is in the best area of Fes to stay, close to the blue gate, with a lot of eating options in the neighbourhood.

I couldn't recommend staying here enough, such a good price for quality stay. They even provided gluten free bread for my boyfriend who has a gluten allergy. Thank you so much!

United KingdomDidn't like the fact I was put right at the top floor. I did ask for a lower level on my booking. I was offered lower level next day, but hardly worth moving for such short period of visit. Didn't want to have to pack my stuff up and move rooms. Just think it was a lack of communication. Other people staying were very noisy till gone 02.30am Making it hard to sleep. Doors slamming, someone on the phone chatting, someone coughing for 3 hours. Could here a washing machine. The breakfast lady arrives around 7am, so that woke me up again. Other than that, it's a lovely, easy to get to place to stay.
Very clean welcoming place to stay. Couldn't do enough for you.
