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 reviewSlimane was a great host - kind, helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, respectful and very professional. He'd get out of his way just to make sure i have everything I needed. As a solo travel girl who spent a week there, I felt cosy and comfortable. The double bed room has AC, it's clean and comfy. Had the bestest sleep and recharge time. I loooove the rooftop terrace!!! It's definitely became my Moroccan home and I look forward to going back. Thank you!!

Verified reviewThe owner was really kind and friendly.
The other guests were little bit noisy, but it was not the accommodation's fault.

Verified reviewBefore we arrived in Marrakech, Slimane, the owner of the hostel, contacted us to let us know that if we needed anything, we could rely on him. When we arrived (after midnight), we asked if we could drink tap water, and he said it was better not to. He gave us a bottle for the night so we didn’t have to go outside and look for an open shop, and said we could pay for it the next morning along with the tax. He kindly answered every question we had about the town and also offered to keep our belongings during our desert trip (we left our stuff there for 3 days without paying anything — we hadn’t even reserved the room for those nights). When we came back, we spent 3 more days there, which we had already booked on Booking. On the last day, he told us we could chill on the upstairs couches for as long as we wanted. On our last night in the desert, our friend arrived in Marrakech, also after midnight. After asking him when she could check in for the next day (she didn’t want to pay for the first night because she had planned to stay one night at the airport and go into town in the morning), Slimane offered her the upstairs room or the couches for free so she would have a safe place to stay. He even offered to pick her up from the airport — which he did — and he didn’t accept any money for it. 100% awesome and chillest dude ever. If I come back to Marrakech, I will definitely book his place!! Hostel is very clean and comfortable, in a good neighborhood.

Verified reviewThe proprietor was friendly
Room had no window. Toilet and bathroom were on a different floor. No hooks in the shower room, which was poorly maintained and designed. Terrace had no views and uncomfortable seating.

Verified reviewSliman was the best! He was so nice, helpful, and a great communicator. He got in touch before our travels and made sure we were getting to the hostel safely, and helping us with whatever he needed. The hostel itself was so homey, and absolutely beautiful. The location was perfect as well. Would definitely stay her again!

Verified reviewSlimane was a very kind and open host for our fist time in Marrakech and was always there to give recommendations or chat about local culture. Beds were comfy and warm (December) and the area around the hostel had plenty of good local places to get food and necessities.

Verified reviewEasily the best thing about this accommodation is its owner, a very friendly and attentive guy who is always trying to make sure that your every need is met. In terms of comfort of the private room I would have rated Kech hostel with around a 6.5, considering that it is a budget option, but the guy and his hospitality and willingness to help raise the rating a couple of points. Also, the price is quite reasonable, the terrace is nice, and the location is quite ok, inside of the 'fun' area but conveniently removed from the crowds of tourists in Jemaa el-Fnaa.
The only issue with the accommodation option that we choose is that because the private room faces the common terrace and bathroom area both via the door and window, if there are people hanging out in there the sense of privacy is significantly reduced.
