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 reviewThe location was amazing - a sanctuary in the centre of the souks! Our room was brilliant too, for four people sharing.
Service by the pool and a readily available drinks/food menu would have been great.

Verified reviewGreat stay, right in the centre of the medina. The staff were lovely and accommodating , and we had little souvenirs upon our arrival :). Breakfast was good, and the rooftop has amazing views
The location was in the centre so there were always noises. If you’re sensitive to sounds, it would be hard to sleep

Verified reviewWhat a stunning Riad, a joy to stay in, a real magical yet peaceful wonder only steps away from the hustle and bustle of the souks. The staff were really attentive and sweet. The breakfast was gorgeous, especially when we had it outside on the roof terrace this morning in the quiet sunshine.

Verified reviewVery authentic and a good sized room. The roof terrace was lovely for chilling out. The whole building was stylishly decorated well with nice furniture touches. The atrium is beautiful. The staff were amazing.
There was no lift so some may struggle but we were fine. The location means you cannot get taxis to/from the door, you need to walk 150m into the main square.

The room was amazing. One thing that I would suggest for improvements is to have Windows that kept the noise of the streets out.

Verified reviewAmazing staff, very kind and professional.
Very difficult to access the Riad, it's deep within the souk, on one of the parallel streets. I went by Tuk Tuk from another Riad and the driver got lost like three times. It's also hard to access in the afternoon or evening; Tuk Tuks don't want to venture into the souk because it's very crowded. I had to walk in heels at night from the Riad to Djemaa el Fna square where I could catch a taxi, on a cobblestone floor, with some puddles, and with street vendors harassing you.
