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 reviewSituated in walking distance to old part of the city, in a quiet alley and nicely cool in the summer heat. The stuff showed great hospitality and help. We had a pleasant stay without any worries.

Verified reviewThe reception by Hamza late in the evening was very nice (flight was late) and good communication during the stay too. Breakfast great (the egg served was amazing) good selection of fresh breads. The location is amazing! You need to take a short walk from where the car drops you. Looks very safe in the evening too.
The room, in the second floor, was a Superior one but: - the shelves are pending downwards so you can't store anything in it because it would fall down. - the toilet seat cover was not attached to the seat (picture attached) - was fixed the day after. - the bed sheets were very used as it had the original color on the border (red) and almost white in the middle. I asked for a changed and a much better one was given. - the room dusty - the shower was not fixed on the wall so for a lady to wash the hair with one hand is challenging. ** It is not their fault but: - guests making noise talking loud in one evening - even tho they have a terrace for this loud talks and laughs. - during breakfast ( with my mother) a guest opens his room in underwear - facing the ground floor (breakfast floor tables) -- That's the vibe

Verified reviewEverything was spectacular. Hamza greeted me at the road and helped me with my luggage, and was so kind during checkin. The room was wonderfully decorated and a great Moroccoan breakfast. I only stayed one evening, but everything was great, and the location was nice and quiet. Thank you again, Hamza!

Verified reviewHamza who seemed to run the riad was very informative and helpful
We don't know if this is typical Riad standard, but we moved to Casablanca after a 6 night stay at the Belko and whilst only Three Star, it feels like a palace in comparison. It is also very substantially less expensive. The accommodation is extremely basic and the attention to detail is all but non-existent. The photos of the rooms on the websites are flattering in the extreme and do not include our "superior" double room. There is no "wardrobe" as listed in the itinerary, likewise there is no washing machine in the room/apartment. We accept that the building is old and not built for large Westerners, but be aware that you are taking your life in your hands each time you use the irregular, worn, slippery steps. In all the many dozens and dozens of hotels, pensions, hostels, and albergues that we have stayed in all over Europe and Asia, we have never had a room without a TV. Surely a basic requirement these days? The wc seat was broken on arrival and remained so, there was no plug in the washbasin; there is an open electric plug about two feet from the washbasin, it is away from the wall and all the wires are hanging out. Electrocution is a distinct possibility, so we didn't touch it. The shower head does not fit/stay in the shower head holder. There is a hole in the wall in the bathroom where a hook once was. There is no toilet brush, surely a basic requirement. A redeeming thing is that the double bed is very comfortable for a hotel type bed, it's just a shame that the bedding supplied is such a bad fit for the bed There is no storage in the room, no cupboards, it is spartan in the extreme. We have both stayed in accommodation throughout Europe and Asia and this is close to the bottom of the pile. Our room is described as a "superior room", I dread to think what lesser ones are like. This represents extremely poor value for money

Verified reviewThe staff makes this Riad incredible. They assisted us with all we needed to know about Marrakech and surrounds. The beds were very soft and probably the cleanest Riad we have stayed in during our 2 weeks in Morocco. Breakfast was also great and freshly baked.
I can't complain about anything at this facility.

Verified reviewHamza who is ruining the Riad Belko is a very kind, friendly man. He was waiting for me beside the road when I came with taxi from the Airport. Location, breakfast and the room all was very lovely 🥰

Verified reviewThis Riad is a bit simpler, which is reflected in the lower price. If you're just staying for the night, you'll be satisfied. My room was small but appropriate for the price. The breakfast was excellent and plentiful. Lovely rooftop terrace. The location is great – being in the second row makes it very quiet. The manager was very friendly and helpful with everything. The staff was truly outstanding.

It's a quite hard to find if you don't know the streets. Google maps takes you to the wrong street and it is impossible to access it from that way. I had to ask a local to help me.
