Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

SwedenThe hotel doesn't check messages very often. It resulted in our arrival to the locked front door. We've been staying and waiting for another 30 minutes at midnight to get the keys. We booked a room with a private bathroom, it wasn't private though. We had to pass the shared corridor to enter the bathroom. Weird, isn't it? Especially if you never wear a pajama ). The breakfast was included but has never been offered ( the host subtracted 10 euros from our payment though). Overall, we wouldn't have stayed there if we were aware of all of these changes...
The location is great as well as the view. The room was clean. The working AC saved our lives there).

RomaniaThere should be more toilet paper rolls, in the bathroom there was only a liquid soap.There should be one more hands towel and a perfume for the bathroom as from time to time we could smell something badly.
The room was big, with a modern TV.The bathroom was big, too.There was a balcony with a beautiful view on the river and Assen Monument. You can park your car in front of the accommodation on a narrow street, there are only 2-3 places.The parking is free there. The hotel is in the Old Town. We could talk with the receptionist ( who doesn't stay there) via Google Translator and it worked great as he doesn't speak English.

United StatesCobwebs, mattress, broken items including non-functioning hairdryer and free breakfast that doesn't exist.
The owner is friendly and helpful, but you give him cash and don't see him again. There is no breakfast and no frills. Had to ask for shampoo and conditioner, there was only pump hand soap. He did drop off body gel and shampoo packets. Thanks! You get and amazing view, but be careful of the railing. That was my big problem with the property. The cobwebs need to be removed and things that are broken should be replaced. It's a beautiful old building off Gurko. Have fun parking. It IS a two way street but only one car fits at a time. That is just the way it is, so dont freak out. Park right in front of the hotel. Park as clos to the building as possible. Otherwise, you are taking a local residential spot. Mattress wasn't very comfortable. In our opinion, should be replaced. Our private bathroom was enormous! That and the view were the best parts for us. Watch out for ants. They love to explore. Didn't see them at first. Don't put items on the floor if you don't want them exploring it.

BulgariaIt was not clean, there was mold in the toilet and spider nets all around the room, plus very dusty cables that were supposed to be lamps but aren't, yet (I've been here before and definitely had much better room).
The location and the view are great. There is always a parking spot, altho the street is a bit challenging (narrow).

IndonesiaThe fact that it is presented as with parking space, as where the parking is on. The public road on extremely beautifull but very narrow roads. The risk of damage your car is not small.
The owners was very friendly as well as the staff, but realistically it is a 1 star hotel, for a 1 star hotel it does tick all the boxes without a doubt Nice location, great view from the balcony and clean.

BulgariaBecause it is next to the river, there are many bugs. (including a centipede). If there was any way to implement a pest control, it would improve a lot. Bathroom is shared. It says breakfast, I didn't ask for it so it wasn't really a problem, but it is just a guesthouse, so I am not sure where this would be if you pay for it. Overall with a little bit more cleanliness the hotel would be perfect.
Location is incredible, by the river, although beware if you go by car, it is a very narrow street, no asfalt, only stones.

RomaniaLack to none parking space Says it has breakfast, but it doesn't, and nearby places that serve breakfast/ coffee won't serve you if you are not staying with them. I am not a morning person. No towels provided, (first time I didn't bring my own) we had to scout the city were we could buy some. Spider webs in all corners off the room (i understand that its close to vegetation area /nature, but they could have cleaned them in-between clients. When you arrive there is no-one there, you have to call the number so that someone can come and give you the keys to tha room.
