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 reviewIt is great value for money, it had all you need for a few days!
I would have appreciated to have a kettle in the room, it is not possible to ask for a cup of tea late when the restaurant is already closed, this is just feedback for improvement.

Verified reviewI really liked the service, especially how the cleaning staff took care of my room and made everything neat and tidy. The bed was very comfortable, which made my stay even more enjoyable.
I didn’t like the Wi-Fi signal, as it was quite slow.

Verified reviewWell located, short distance to main pedestrian area and a grocery store.. Nice garden restaurant, also for breakfast. Selection of fresh fruit in breakfast buffet. Room was ready right after midday. Attentive staff - even provided oatmilk at request. Did not try the restaurant but apparently it’s good.
The rooms need an upgrade, even for a two star hotel. Room price not corresponding to quality. Unfortunately no storage found for bicycles.

Verified reviewNothing it was one of the worst hotel experiences
Word of warning!..I wouldn't stay here again, the temperature of the room in summer is unbelievable hot and stuffy even with no sun heat getting in, the fan didn't work, me and my partner couldn't sleep all night. We have a cat so filtered booking for pets allowed. And told them upfront we have a cat. After I paid and checked out I got an angry phone call saying they don't accept cats and sent me an extra bill of 100chf which I definitely shouldn't have paid but just wanted to be done dealing with them, there was no damage to the room. They need to remove that pets are allowed. It is listed nowhere that cats are not allowed. Really horrible experience. Never again would I stay here.
Dear guest, you left the hotel, i.e. the room, in an extremely poor condition even though cats are not allowed... You have shown no respect towards our staff and the hotel. It was written on Booking that we allow dogs and not cats but that is not the problem if you leave the room clean. We also have the photos... On Booking.com it also says that we do not have air conditioning... therefore your complaint is void... You can also see our other reviews which are always positive. I wish you all the best Tommaso Campanella director and owner

Verified reviewDouble room with connection door. Clean. The breakfast was relatively rich and tasty.
There was a bad smell of cigarettes in the room that did not go away. There was no inner door in the elevator- maybe you should hang a warning sign.

Verified reviewThe room was very clean, and the location is perfect in the city centre. Staff was really nice and even availible late night.
Unfortunately there was no Airconditioning so the stay was rather unpleasant bcs it was so hot outside (35C°) would not be a problem if its not so hot outside.
