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.).

Bosnia and HerzegovinaThere is not a single thing I could say I would change. From bathroom, to location, to cleanliness, to price. Supper affordable and definitely worth the money we paid. Recommending this hotel to everyone.
First of all I would like to say this is my 7th time visiting Istanbul, and this is by far the best Hotel I have stayed in. The staff was very friendly, helped us with everything we needed. The Hotel is brand new, everything is new and in working condition (fridge, bathroom, water cooker, etc...). Everything was super clean which was very important to us. We enjoyed our stay, the hotel is located in a quiet street so there was no noise from cars passing by. The price was amazing, and the location of the hotel is great (train station nearby, also bus stations within walking distance). I will recommend this hotel to everyone.

It's a new hotel. Staff is so nice and helpful. This area may not look perfect at the begging but the area itself is in the middle of all the sightseeing area and the most famous landscapes also safe. They also accepted our dog so we appreciate it a lot. It's such a little hotel but it's really clean, no smell. High quality for it's price. I have to mention that they don't have their parking in the closed territory, it's on the street but our car was in front of the hotel on the spot they secured for us hence the car was secure for 7 days

I loved the location, the staff is really nice, really nothing to say in a negative manner! You get a lot more for what you paid!

BulgariaThe view from the window in the room wasn't the best and there were people doing repairs in the building next to us, so it was very noisy at times, also there were other guests who made loud noises coming back late at night and woke us up
Almost everything was as expected and worked properly, we really loved the balcony
