Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Canadathe tea and coffee area was not very clean, no milk or whitener for tea or coffee. no internet access. there was a lot of noise that carried throughout the house our room had glass panels above the door which let in all the light from the hallway when the lights were switched on and one more thing was the toilet seat was loose and did not fit properly.
it was close to the canal so we had a nice walk along, bed was comfy and the neighbourhood was quiet.

PolandThe location is close to the centre and is within walking distance of many bus stops, shops and restaurants. There is a nice canal side path just in front of the house, so if you’re a runner, it’s a nice spot. When it comes to the room itself, unfortunately we could smell cigarette smoke in our room, and on the corridor, which wasn’t the most pleasant experience. All in all the bathroom, the room and the sheets could be cleaner, but the shower was easy to use and the water pressure was okay. We were welcomed very warmly and the host was a very nice person, they were helpful and friendly. They were also understanding of our check in and check out hours (we had to go to the airport at 3am and there was no issue with key dropp off or checking out).

United KingdomVery good value for money in Dublin. Comfortable bed and cosy room with coffee and various teas to choose from. Loved the old fireplace and decor. Helpful to get parked for free in a nearby street and garage for petrol closeby to refuel before heading further south. Nearby coffee shop for a tasty breakfast. Worked well for my two night stay.

United KingdomThe property was effectively a room in someone's house, the room was very small for two adults. The house was very noisy with doors banging and the owner had a young toddler/child that cried regularly and made my partner and I feel uncomfortable where we spent a vast majority of time out of the hotel to feel relaxed. The room wasn't great in terms of cleanliness. The floors could have done with a clean as there were bits all over, the mattress and bedding was covered in hair and the tea and coffee could possibly have been there months or years due to the scattering on the side table. It is advertised as a garden view but the garden and surrounding buildings are effectively a building site, that is quite noisy at certain periods (late Saturday night) I could hear machinery working. The toiletries are effectively the owners personal toiletries, they're not hotel style toiletries and you're sharing the owners bathroom which can feel uncomfortable at times. The WiFi is non-existent, you'll almost certainly be using mobile data.
It was on the lower side for prices at the time of booking for a stay in Dublin due to the expensive nature of the city. However still, the price was roughly £90 per night, equivalent of a decent budget hotel and this wouldn't compete with the standards of a decent budget hotel in reality.
