Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

We strongly suspect that this property must have changed hands and that the ratings as displayed by Booking.com is a carry over from a previous owner, for the property is currently in such a sad state that it does not even warrant any star rating at all. The amenities as listed are completely misleading. We stayed and continued to stay, as we were there after the tragic death of a family member and rented 3 rooms. The 1 and only plus was that the rooms and bedding were clean and the location was good. Everything else was sub-standard. Room 1: (1) No bulb in 1 bed lamp. (2) Fridge could not adjust and freezed our drinks and milk. (3) Kettle cord too short and could not work on table. Had to be placed on floor. (4) Only 2 socket plugs for fridge, kettle, microwave oven and heater. Had to plug and unplug the appliances in very uncomfortable position to reach the plugs behind table and fridge. (5) Tea bags lay open and unprotected in open container with no identification of brand. (6) No indication/note to indicate if tap water was safe to drink. A previously purchased 5-liter empty water container was found on bathroom floor! (7) 1 light (out of 3) in ceiling did not work. (8) Very irritating creaky/noisy double bed. (9) Two plates, 2 knives and forks, 2 coffee mugs BUT NO spoons or teaspoons. Room 2: (1) A previously purchased 5-liter half-full water container was available. Safe to drink? (2) No indication/note to indicate if tap water was safe to drink. (3) Water from tap was dirty with mud. (4) TV did not work (5) Some lights in ceiling did not work. Room 3: (1) Bathroom lights totally out of order and owner/caretaker came to inspect but made no effort to rectify. (2) No indication/note to indicate if tap water was safe to drink. (3) TV did not work (4) Door lock (to lock the room) was broken. Owner/caretaker came to inspect but made no effort to fix it. This property should in our opinion be avoided at all cost!

We were unable to gain entry to the premises. In spite of booking for arrival at 15:00, we spent numerous efforts (and1,5 hrs) trying to get attention via an unresponsive intercom system. Frequent hooting was also unsuccesful to elicit any response. Unfortunately we had no telephone number to hand and the area is such that neighbours could not be contacted either, and we therefore left at 16:30. At around 18:00, when we were long gone, a phone call was treceived from the establishment enquiring after our arrival. When it was explained that we no longer required their accommodation, no excuse or reason for inattentiveness was forthcoming.
