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.).

IndiaHooks not provided for hanging cloths in room or bath rooms/toilet which are the main items for guests, Wherever provided, they are grossly insufficient. There is no door segregating the wash rooms from living Dormitories where by wash room sounds are heard in Dormitories unpleasantly. Bins provided in toilet is small due to which its found over flowing every day by evening & people are forced to dump them in kamode. No soap holders are available in bath rooms. These are small investments to be done by the owner,
Location is good. Roof top dining ambience is good. Beds were clean. Food in kitchen fairly ok.

SpainBathroom was small and could be better. The hotel is locked at night and you can't leave unless the staff open the lock... I found it a bit dangerous if there's a fire.
Location is great. Staff is very nice and helpfull. Room was very nice with confortable beds. Quite area and nice share space on the rooftop. Don't have food facilities, but recommended the Kwabahal Boutique hostel, which is a great place to have food in the middle of Thames.

South KoreaYou get what you pay for. It’s very cheap so expect that. It is time the owner starts doing some renovations as the place is starting to fall apart. I gave this same feedback to the manager.
My favourite thing above all was the staff. The make you feel at home, absolutely everyone was very kind, polite and helpful.

IndiaStaffs were behaving too much professionally, as people come for leisure they should behave more friendly. The place needs renovation. Old things need to be replaced with new and fresh ones.
Everything was good, location wise it's one of the best one to opt for.
