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.).

NorwayThe beds were a bit hard. The room towards the sea was lovely, but as there was no air conditioning we had to have the window open and the noise was more than we expected.
The staff were very helpfull and friendly. We were given tips of things to do. And always met with a smile. The view was amazing

United StatesNothing not to like! The wind blowing off of the ocean can be fierce. Sometimes we felt drafts in our room. But that’s to be expected. The spectacular ocean views are worth it!
The views from our room were absolutely breathtaking. We felt like we were on a lone ship in the middle of the ocean.

United StatesMy only suggestions would be to provide more electrical outlets (for phones, batteries, laptops) and a couple of luggage racks so we don't have to put our open luggage on the floor or dresser or table or chair. We're in Morocco for a month so we each have a fairly packed suitcase. Other than those somewhat minor things, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend Riad Mimouna.
Great room! Excellent breakfast!

United KingdomThe room was a bit dated particularly the bathroom. but it was clean and plenty of hot water. We still had a very comfortable stay though.
The best thing about this riad was the view. It’s right next to the sea and you get great views from the windows, particularly the rooftop terrace and restaurant where breakfast is served each morning. It’s a huge riad, hotel size so not the place to go if you’re expecting a small boutique feel. The plus side of that is there’s reception staff available all the time and they were very helpful. It’s also very easy to find and the location is great for the medina and restaurants/bars there. It’s a little further from the beach though so maybe not the place to pick if your main aim is a beach holiday, though even so it’s only 15-20 min walk.

From the moment you walked in this Riad is amazing. We went to the top deck where we were greeted with mint tea and ocean views. The room was stunning ocean view beach right up to the wall surrounding the madina. Everywhere took advantage of the ocean views including the restaurant absolutely stunning.
