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.).

PolandThe room wasn't extremely clean, the table was dirty of coffee stains, there were holes in the bed sheets. It was ok to stay there for one night.
It's a nice place located in the quiet area. The breakfast was good. Please mind you need to bring your own towel and soap (or rent/buy at the reception)

BrazilThe rooms have heaters but no AC or fans. you need to bring your own towel, or you can rent one from them and the only hygiene item provided is toilet paper, there is no soap in the hand washing sink but they warned you in a previous email, which is completely ok. The only really bad thing is that there are not enough power outlets, in a room for 4 people there were only 2 and they are difficult to access.
The hostel is well located (15 min walk from the beach), clean, they provide good quality bed linen and have blankets. It is a youth hostel, it was full of teenagers but it was not noisy and we were able to have a great night's sleep. The breakfast is also good, with several types of bread, cereal, yogurt, cheese and salami. They also have a bar with a good variety of drinks. The bathroom is clean and individual, the bath area is separate from the toilet, which helps in shared rooms. They have safes but you need to have your own padlock

Germany1) It was impossible to open the window during the warm summer night because there was no window but only a window door in the ground floor. 2) No bed linen cover to put the quilt / duvet inside it, but only one-sided below the quilt, so you had a strange feeling of uncleanliness.
1) Location about 15 minutes walk from the wonderful beaches of the North See 2) Free parking space 3) Community of people you meet

LatviaOur visit was at the beginning of February when the temperature outside was just above zero during the day and below zero during night. Upon our arrival the room was ice cold with the radiator turned off. We turned it on thinking it might heat up the room before we go back to sleep. Unfortunately it didn’t it. When we informed the staff in the morning they were very apologetic as they had forgotten to turn on the heating for us. Just something to keep in mind when visiting during the colder months.

United StatesWe have been staying at under 100 euro rooms in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, and France. This is the only place we stayed that we had to make our own beds, take the bedding off and return it in the morning, no towels, no Wifi in our room even though Wifi was advertised, and we had to bus and clean our table in the morning. The food however was pretty good.
We were able to get in our room as soon as we arrived by bicycles. The room had a glass door to the outside so we could load and unload the bikes right at the room. They had a secure room for the bikes so they weren't locked up outside. We also had breakfast in the morning included.
