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 reviewThis is not a tourist hotel. It is in a small town, right next to the train station and has a good local vibe. The attached bar and restaurant were very convenient and the food was good--both dinner and the included breakfast.

Verified reviewClose to train station.
Stairs to enter hotel. This wasn’t easy with all our luggage. Front desk not open when we got there at 2 pm. There was a sign on the door that was locked to the front reception and had a name and a phone number so I called it and it was the lady who worked there and she came to the door for us. We did a short check-in and then got our room key. The room was clean, but the hotel is very dated and there was no coffee maker in the room. The hotel’s restaurant was closed. We were hungry after our train ride. There is only one restaurant across the street and nothing much to do in this very small town. It’s not a quaint village with shops and restaurants. There’s really nothing to do in town. It’s a very, very small town.

Verified reviewThe stay did not take place because the reception was not working. Upon arrival, there was only a sign on the door with a number that did not work and a key box for which we did not have the password. The reception was supposed to work 24 hours, that's why I chose this hotel. I do not recommend the hotel is unreliable!!!

Verified reviewMy room was on the 3rd floor, nearest to the stairs, right next to the machine room and I could hear a very loud vibration all the time, I couldn't sleep. They didn't warn me about this, nor ask me if I mind the noise. Everything else was fine.

Verified reviewThe hotel is right in front of the train station, and the check-in took only a minute. The double bed is very large and confortable but takes up most of the place in room. Very cute balcony. Very good hotel for a short layover!

Verified reviewThere was nobody when I got there. I have to wait in the cold and there was nothing to make a cup of tea or coffee. There was never anyone around when I needed help with something or just to get a cup of hot water to make tea and I went there with my tea
There should something to boil water to make a cup of tea They should let you know when they are going to be available ( time or day )
