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.).

FranceI got two beds instead of one, but it didn’t really bother me. The walls a bit thin, I was able to hear somebody snoring. The windows were in front of the tram, which was alright, but the snoring was loud (not much to do about it).
It was clean, welcoming, big room, the staff were friendly, close to transport.

SwitzerlandThe location is more suitable for academic professionals, or people attending events at the EPFL. The metro service is stopped after 20:00-20:30 even during the weekdays. The bathroom had a shower of very good dimensions, but the tails joints of the shower tray were lacking some deeper cleaning. Hair dryer was not part of the bathroom equipment, but it's possible to request it to the reception. Unfortunately, sometimes you realize it when you are already showered. Frigobar is not in the room, but distributors are at the reception, where a coffee machine is also available. In conclusion, for leisure I would choose the hotel only with budget restrictions. A good price value is up to 120-130 CHF, above I would look for other options.
Very fair hotel considering cost. Simple, but all essential was in and the furnitures, tv, safe box as well as curtains were like new. The size of the room was excellent. The bed was comfortable with a good quality matrass and the bed sheets clean. No traces of hair pets, or smell of smoke which I deeply appreciated. Location is in the uni area far from center, but well connected with public transports and metro. It's also a quite hotel. The personnel is very friendly and supportive with guests.

The metro station was right in front of the hotel.

United StatesThere were two big problems with my stay. 1) There is no air conditioning. This may be typical, but it was very uncomfortable in late June as even with the window open there was absolutely no airflow making it difficult to sleep at night. If no air conditioning can be provided at least a fan should be to ensure comfort. 2) The lack of air-conditioning led to the second issue which is that the room is directly over a bar that is full of very happy and loud students until the early morning. The position of the room made it such that it was as if there were students partying directly outside the window which could not be closed due to the no air conditioning. Due to these two issues, I only got 1-2 hours of sleep each night.
The room was clean and generally acceptable. The staff was courteous.
