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 hotel was such an unexpected highlight of our cycling trip! It is in the middle of a medieval village called Capmany, so the setting is really spectacular. The hotel itself is a historic building, and the room was HUGE. Shower was modern and we had tonnes of space. Really straight forward check in with codes, and very bike friendly.
It's very personal, and not hotel's fault, but if you're a light sleeper, there is a church bell next door and bizarelly it DOES go on through the night every 15mins. My partner slept through it without any problems, so it won't affect everyone, but I slept very badly that night.
Dear Marija, Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that our hotel was a highlight of your cycling trip and that you enjoyed the spacious room and bike-friendly facilities. We are sorry if the sound of the church bell disturbed your sleep. Unfortunately, this is a tradition in all the villages of the Alt Empordà region, where the bell tower chimes every quarter hour, so it is something beyond our control. Please know that we are always available to assist during your stay, and we would be very happy to welcome you again in the future. Moments Rurals Team

Verified reviewLocation in the very center. Very responsive staff/hosts. Rooms and all the atmosphere are outstanding.
When entering the room there was a bad smell from the bathroom, but after turning on the bathroom ventilation it disappeared.
Thank you, Rytis, for your kind review and for highlighting the fantastic location and atmosphere of our guesthouse. We’re also glad to hear that you appreciated the responsiveness of our staff and the quality of the rooms. We regret the initial issue with the bathroom odor and are pleased that it was resolved quickly. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Verified reviewThe room was nice and clean and the photos depict it accurately. The building and courtyard are beautiful. The spa bath was spacious and there was plenty of hot water.
If you have trouble sleeping to the sound of very loud church bells ringing at least every 15 minutes, 24 hours per day, you may not get much (or any) rest. Otherwise, the room is great. The breakfast lacks vegetarian options.
