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.).

FinlandBreakfast was good but not great. Some steep stairs from the parking lot to the hotel.
The hotel has a lot of character and it has been well maintained. The room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was a little on the small side, but OK. Microwave and fridge in the room were very useful as there is a supermarket next to the hotel.

United StatesBeing an old building there was no elevator and all the rooms were on the second floor. It was not an issue for us but could cause some trouble for elderly people.
The room was very clean an presumably renovated in recent years. Breakfast was excellent and variety allowed everyone to enjoy based on their liking or eating restrictions.

Oy was very clean and well isolated from noise. Also the staff was extremely friendly and helpful- they even helped us with our packages by carrying some of them to our floor. The breakfast was even better and offered a lot more variety than in any of the hotels with same price.

FinlandWinter had arrived and the room was a bit on the cool side for Nordic standards. However, the beds were warm and comfortable and compensated the slight chilliness beautifully. Please note that there is no elevator in the building.
The rooms have been renovated quite recently with modern decor and updated bathrooms. The self-checkin works perfectly. The breakfast is great with plenty of choises for every taste.

SwedenWe called the hotel in advance and told them we would arrive prior to 21. When we got there the hotel was empty, no staff in sight, noone was working in the evening or night. We got no mail or sms before telling us which room we had or how to get into the hotel. I texted the hotel several times asking for information but got no return. Fortunately for us there as a man arriving in under 10 minutes so we got in. We found 3 envelopes in a box on a desk, I opened the first and there was two room-keys and an empty paper. Some time later we opened the other two envelopes and there were names on the paper in those so we figured ours was the one without any name. We got the text-SMS with the door-code the next day which didn't help us. Our room was then hot as a sauna and when we opened the windows we had troubles sleeping because the cars were running wild on the street just outside all night long. The breakfast was ok but we were surprised to see FOUR people in the reception in the morning, why couldn't they have at least one person in the reception in the evening? And then there was a small bloodstain on my sheet which was not so nice, the cleaning lady must have seen this but just didn't care to change it.
The breakfast was ok, many things to choose from. The location was right next to a supermarket which was very convenient, unfortunately it was also next to a busy street with lots of traffic in the evening and night.
