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...).

United KingdomShower quite cold.
Tall building with good views of the Medina. Get your own key to your room so it feels like a hotel (leave key at reception when you go out for the day) and superb breakfast where you choose tea or coffee. Coffee comes in a pot with separate milk (way better than in cafes!).

LithuaniaEverything was okey. We asked for hair dryer and extra heating and we got it with no problem. Breakfast was good, we did enjoy it. It was raining a lot on the day that we came, so the place to eat breakfast was all wet. It was drops falling from the ceiling. Room had windows to medina, so during all night was very noisy. For the price it was okey.

South AfricaClean, spacious room with recently refurbished private bathroom. The reception staff were professional and to-the-point. Service staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast served was fresh, good quality and every time more than I was able to finish. I loved the location, and could open the windows for Essaouira's seaside air, and the sounds of the street down below. Centrally located, and safe. I could also safely leave my luggage before and after check-in. I can highly recommend this as a great option, well balanced between price and quality.

MoroccoThe Staff was so friendly and tried to make us feel good, I liked the rooftop however i didn’t have a window view from my room so I can’t tell about it, the only thing besides that is that the hotel was in the middle of a market which is full of people + it’s not a hotel to meet new people and connect with them but it’s more for chilling and resting

SpainSince this accomodations is located at one of the main streets in Essaouira's medina and our room had windows in that direction, it was noisy at night till 1 AM. If you ask for a interior room you should have no problem.
The staff was very friendly and the guy at the front desk spoke English really well. The room was big enough, clean and prepare for us. The bathroom was in good condition, clean and perfect. Breakfast was amazing at the rooftop and we loved to stay at this riad.

CanadaAs with most of the Riads you have to make sure to quickly wash and rinse your hair as the hot water will run out.
There was a lovely terrace. The breakfast was very good, standard for the Riad's in Morocco. The location was well situated in the Medina, easy to get to the markets and the square. The room was clean and colourful with plenty of toilet paper. The staff were super helpful, gave us lots of information of what the highlights of the area were.
