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 reviewthis riad is magic. bab doukkala is the best neighborhood and this spot is heaven. saïd, abdel, samir and the rest of the team effortlessly make you feel super safe and totally looked after. the breakfast is incredible, the vibes are immaculate, and the call to prayer experience from the rooftop is amazing. our kids also loved the resident cats and turtle and the plunge pools are beautiful. we stayed on both romi and beldi sides of the building and they both have the chilled energy and the deep sleep action.

Verified reviewthey called a taxi for me to take me to the next place, about 1/5th of the distance the first taxi covered to bring me from the airport to their Riad, but it cost nearly double the price. No one spoke English, I had to wait> one hour for them to get someone who spoke English to tell me the routine. No one wears anything to tell you they work at the hotel, and the taxi drops you off in the Medina because the streets are too narrow to go any further. But they don't tell you they are going to do that. so the car just stops, they put your luggage on the ground and leave. you have no idea where you are. It turned out the man who grabbed my bag and took off with it worked for the hotel, but he didn't speak English, didn't speak to me or make eye contact, and didn't tell me what was happening. None of the staff made eye contact. I specifically introduced myself, but they didn't reciprocate. I was scammed by a man, when I left the hotel, who said he was a hotel employee, and the event I was going to had been cancelled. he said follow him to a different one, led me down an empty ally and demanded money to let me go. this is common. The event was not cancelled, and I just ran to get away from him. When I got back to the Riad, a staff member told me he had seen the man following me and to be careful. then why didn't he intervene, because he would only have been 5 metres away!!!!
service, communication, Even a tiny amount of manners, compassion, acknowledgement that I am human would have been nice. I am a 70 year old woman travelling alone.

Verified reviewIt was in the easiest of locations in the heart of a busy area that wasn’t full of tourists. No need to lock up your door as there were staff there 24/7.
The location of the main pool was right outside someone’s room which made it look like it was for their exclusive use. We didn’t use it while the occupants were outside their room. The spa was secluded but not much good anyway. First it was too hot to enter then it was like sitting in a warm bath with no jet pressure.

Verified reviewThe Riad sits in the north part of the Medina, its location is quite strategic to meander through the old city. Once in, the place offers comfort and a very relaxing and friendly environment. Rooms overlooking two small courtyards, one with a green swimming pool underneath and another one with a quite eating area.

Verified reviewThe Riad is very well located in the Medina, easy to find. The environment is well curated, quiet, calm and relaxing. Rooms are clean and service is the best part, everyone is incredibly welcoming and ready to help. I had the best Tajine de beouf aux pruneaux in the city!!
Definitely recommend this for a solo or trip with friends or family.

Verified review- Excellent location, close to local attractions in the medina, but quiet and serene - Beautifully decorated and clean throughout - Two pools to choose from and a great roof top terrace - 2 cats and a tortoise roaming the premises (adorable and cuddly!)
- Room didn't have a mini bar which would be so useful in the 40 degree heat - We didn't get water on check in like in the other riad we stayed in, would have been a nice touch in the summer heat - Breakfast is tasty enough, but could do with a bit more variety - It was quite pricey for food/drinks in the hotel
