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 reviewAfter reading the reviews I knew what to expect, it’s a fine place to stay for a night if you’re only sleeping there, it wasn’t really uncomfortable, I brought my own pillow, the beds creak and rattle, but we were so tired so fell asleep right away, my friend was woken by others in the house, as the sound travelled, but I slept fine, you could open the window a bit so that was good, the bathroom was ok, busy at 9 am but check Out is at 10 am so not surprised as there’s only one. We didn’t use the kitchen. The cleaning lady was a nice girl.
It’s a bit run down with broken glass from a broken window, as previous reviews state, it’s not that clean, but it’s still ok. I drove here for a night after a concert so I had my own pillow and sheet. The bathroom was stuffy but also not the biggest problem. The numerous door locks made it safe, but I’m not sure if I’d have felt safe here alone as a woman. It’s semi noisy, but that depends on who’s staying there, if you travel you know people can be inconsiderate, not a place like this’s fault. If you share the price per night it’s worth it.

Verified reviewI didn't like it at all
It was very dirty. It was disgusting to shower or even brush your teeth. They don't change the codes so people who have stayed before can get in even if they are not paying. It is dangerous and I do not recommend it at all.

Verified reviewDay 1 - Upon check-in, found dirty bedclothes, with pubic hair to be seen; no pillow case on pillow. Upon enquiring from other guests, it was said there had been a man in the bed, who hadn't checked out on time. Day 2 - From 09:00am - 2:45pm, no electricity for the entire day, until cleaning staff arrived and reported the matter. With no Internet access, as a result of the power cut, and no way to contact Management by telephone, as the tel. no. provided by the property is not valid, it was not possible for the guest to report the matter. Newly checked-in guest believed there were towels as part of the reservation, and had to use a T-shirt as a bath towel, as there was not a single towel on-site and certainly no staff to give him one, had there been any. Incidentally, there is no bath tub on-site, as advertised by the property - only a shower. Consequently, there was no security whatsoever, as the front door access coded lock works only by electricity, and does not lock behind a guest, once there is power cut; one guest found to be shaving in the dark in bathroom; work emails unable to be sent, research unable to be undertaken and legal responses unable to be provided. According to another guest, this was the second time this had happened, whereby there had been no electricity in the house. Day 3 - A previous guest, one who was barred from this property, aswell as from the nearby sister property; after staying at Fernando's Place the previous night, with no booking, it was stated, gained direct access to the room the only female guest in the house was booked into, which requires a keycode to enter. Day 5 - New guest to the room found dirty sheets on the bed, upon going to bed at midnight that night, and had to change the entire bedclothes. Day 6 - Once again, from 9am - 3pm, no electricity for the entire day, until 'cleaning' staff arrived to the property and reported the matter to Management.

Verified reviewOf the freedom to use the kitchen
Lack of organization, there were people in the house who didn't have check-in, because I spent the day outside at school and ran the risk of taking my things. The correct thing would be to have a person present to have control of the house and leave the guests calmer.

Verified reviewYo nothing there's active mold everywhere!!
This place is hazardous. They have travelers sleeping in squalor mold growing out of the walls unmade beds. They treat the staff horrible which is why they cannot hold onto cleaning services. They are not recommended!!!
