How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewLocation was prime. A great spot to explore the old town of Sarajevo. I loved the kindness of our host family.
The bathroom, the lack of cleanliness in the cabinets. I did not like that the hotel locks the door at midnight and therefore the guests have to be back before midnight.

Verified reviewI liked that the property was very much in the old town and just a steep climb up to the yellow fortress. Whilst the first impression of the reception/breakfast room gave a bit rough appearance it grew on me. There is also a convience store just around the corner. The staff were pleasant to deal with.
First of all, the rooms were very simple. Not bad just simple. Due to light panelling towards the corridor the room was never totally dark either. Breakfast was ok but could have been a bit more varied. WiFi was only working intermittently except in the reception/breakfast room.

Verified reviewGreat location - 10 meters and you are in the old town, parking in front of the hotel
Old room where we stayed (double bed and two single beds, which we took for us parents and our child), not taken good care of, old shower, only shampoo, no shower gel, the room smells like smoke, careless breakfast, with not much to choose from, WiFi not strong enough for the room. I was happy when we left the hotel

Verified reviewGreat place to stay in Sarajevo. The hotel is located right next to Sebilj fountain in Baščaršija, so you can't imagine better location. Room was small but it was clean, cozy and had everything needed. Hosts were very nice, breakfasts were good. I really recommend this place.

Verified reviewThe staff were friendly and welcoming. The breakfast had everything I needed to start the day. The room was clean and outfitted with everything I needed. The location was right right across from the old town with a tram stop 30 seconds from the hotel.
I cannot think of anything that I did not like. The hotel charged a fair price for the stay and what it offered.

Verified reviewSuper friendly hosts in a familly hotel located directly on Baščaršija, the old town. Next to the tram station and the shop and bakery.
The linen had slight odour of tobacco. The rest of my family didn't smell it. The toilet also had a distinctive smell, but it wasn't that bad.

Verified reviewThe location was a big plus. Located in the middle of old town Sarajevo, it was easy to get to the main sights in the city. There are grocery stores, restaurants, and shops in easy walking distance. Busses and taxis are just outside the hotel. The breakfast was simple but good. The staff welcoming and accommodating.
The room was dated but was enough for our needs.

Verified reviewRoom: We booked 3 rooms. (2 double, 1 triple), thank you for upgrading the triple room to the family room. so the room is big enough for us. The room has a heater, so it's so good. Even the view is good. Toilet: the toilet is clean and equipped with soap and tissue and a water heater. location: it's really near Sebilj and the old town. Just 2-3 minutes walking, you reach the old town and also the tram. Parking: if you come with a car, better request for the parking, because we drove a big car, we requested, and the hotel, give us in front of the hotel. Breakfast: just find; they prepare bread, cereal, cheese, chicken slices, hot drinks, milk, and juice.
