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.).

PolandA charming pension in a beautiful historic location. Marvellous views, a spacious room, comfy beds. The staff is super friendly. You immediately feel at home there and want to come back! The restaurant serves traditional food eg.excellent Slovak halušky. In warm weather you can eat outside in a peaceful garden.

United StatesWish it had an elevator for us old folks! And once on the property, it was difficult to find the lodging. There was a sign for the restaurant but not for the pension.
The beautifully quaint setting of a former monastery was lovely. It was super clean, with a very friendly staff.

AustraliaThe only minor thing was that the shower head did not point down.
Great property set in a lovely location. The bedroom was big with a large comfortable double bed. The wifi was strong. The bathroom was large. It was great to be able to eat in the garden of the hotel. The garden was secluded being large and surrounded by the old town wall. It was only a short walk from the bus stop. The staff were very nice and friendly.

I really had a great time such as a fairytale with my family. It was a bit hard to find the parking lot but a woman who stood in front of the hotel taught where it is. The room was clean and enough big for us and the view from around the hotel was also good! We had good dinner and fresh breakfast. I want to back there soon! Thanks very much!

SlovakiaDuring the breakfast time, a bit after nine am, I went with a colleague to the restaurant and ordered tea and they charged for it.
The location was very beautiful. The breakfast was modest but had a good selection. They were pet-friendly.

HungaryMinor things: the place is a bit hard to find, and we could not get the (tiny) TV working (admittedly, we did not ask for help).
It is a totally unique experience to stay here. It is in the middle of a tiny medieval religious city surrounded by walls, closed and quiet - I kept on asking myself: are we allowed to be here? Once inside the (ages old) pension, you find basic but comfortable rooms and a restaurant that serves great breakfast but also a full-fledged menu for dinner. We have also benefited from the selection of board games (bring your own dice!).

United StatesThis is not the fault of the property at all but i thought i mention it for awareness. I was unfamiliar with this building. Our room was on the third floor, and obviously there is no elevator in this historical building. We had an 85 and a 73 year old with us, and they both struggled with the steps, so we needed to minimize how many times we climbed/descended the steps.
The location is outstanding. It’s like stepping back in time. Staff was helpful and service was outstanding.

LuxembourgIf you want to feel the historical atmosphere of the preceding centuries not only in the cozy restaurant this medieval residence offers, but also have your body and soul renewed during the sleep in the premises that are literally built on prayers of the generations of Spiš Chapter members , this is probably the best place in the historical heart of the Spiš region to take a retreat. The small hotel is run as a family business, that is, the approach to the guests is on a totally different level up the scale. Restaurant is highly recommended for its variety of seasonal meals using local products.

CanadaA little more space to store items - we didn't really have anywhere to put our bags (we did however book the cheapest room!)
Really cool location and setting, which I wasn't expecting. It's in the Spis Kapitula which is an old ecclesiastical town and it's very atmospheric. Make sure you save some time to walk around that area. The rooms and hotel are decorated in a unique manner in line with the ecclesiastical area. The restaurant isn't fine dining, but at this price point it's exactly what you would expect, and more. The hot teas are fantastic! Breakfast was great and the staff were very helpful.

A wonderful and unique place to stay within a cloister village of some sort. The rooms are simple but clean and comfortable. The kitchen is good, we had breakfast and dinner there. The Spis castle is very near.
