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.).

Dear, thank you for letting us know about your stay at our hotel. Please note that it says on the internet that we don't have air conditioning. Best regards, The Reception Team

Verified reviewGreat location near the motorway as it was a stopover on our way to Spain. Restaurant food was surprisingly excellent and a good choice. Breakfast also very good.
Room was a bit small but adequate for 1 night.

We did not stay in this hotel and we certainly would not recommend it. We arrived We checked in We went into our room, saw how unclean the room was with mould on some of the walls. We walked out after first getting our money back. This place should not even be listed on booking.com it’s awful.
Dear, Like you said, you didn't stay, so i think your comment is undeserved. The housekeeping is made after every check-out. The bathroom is totally new, and the room is equiped with new bedding and furnishings. There is no mould in the room. You told my collegue you didn't want to stay in the room because of a smell, and we proposed you to change the room, what you refused. Sincerely Ambacia Team

Verified reviewIt was right off the A10. It has a 24/7 reception and there was a lot of parking space. The rooms are small but nice and the beds were comfortable. The receptionist was friendly and quick.
Thee might have been done some more cleaning in the bathroom. It looked a bit dusty and old.

Thank you for taking the time to rate your stay. Please be aware that housekeeping is carried out every day in the establishment, as well as in the rooms. Whether they are checking out or long stay, our colleagues take good care of the rooms and ensure our customers' satisfaction. As for the lack of toilet paper and toiletries, these are normally provided in the bathroom, but if you forget, reception is open and available 24 hours a day to help. The same applies to the hairdryer, which is available on request from reception. Sincerely The Ambacia team

Verified reviewBreakfast was good plenty of choices.
After a long tiring day on the road travelling, we were very disappointed to be told that we couldn't make use of the restaurant for an evening meal or drink because of a coachload of guests that were dining!
Dear, Thank you for your feedback about your stay. Please understand that with an entire bus of fifty person or more eating, it's difficult for one serveur to served everyone at a time and sometimes, the restaurant is fully booked for the groups. Best regards The Ambacia Team

Hotel is unmaintained. Room had old carpet, weird stains on the wall, and bathtub had some untreated ugly looking damage on it. Hallway and roof window above staircase is full of dust and doors in hallway are massive, heavy. ugly and old.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to leave us your opinion. Please know that our rooms are meticulously cleaned every day by our team of housekeepers. The bathrooms are being renovated. Yours sincerely Laura

Verified reviewThe room was very comfortable, especially the bed. Good amenities in the bathroom, excellent free parking, perfectly positioned in a quiet street and green area with fresh air.
Nothing to say here. We slept until very late, so we did not have breakfast, so we cannot give details about it.
