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 reviewBeautifully fitted out Riad. Splendid terrace. Pretty bathroom. Good location. Kind staff.
On arrival, one in our company (a 60+ female solo traveller and who the staff were expecting) found herself outside a locked front door and there was nobody who answered the phone. Thankfully this was during the day and a kind gentleman from the local shop down the road provided her with a chair while she waited and continued to ring for 30 minutes for someone from the Riad to welcome her.

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful stay! The lovely women were so welcoming and helpful — communication before and during our visit was excellent. Our room was cozy, with a beautiful blue bathroom, and we loved having breakfast on our own private terrace. The riad felt authentic and peaceful, yet it was very central.
The only small downside was that the pool and rooftop terrace could use a little care, but overall it didn’t take away from the experience. We’d definitely come back!

Verified reviewAlmost everything!
Maybe the rooftop terrace should have gotten some love and care and breakfast could have had some fruit or some healthier options. (But it was still delicious!!!)

Verified reviewThe room was lovely and the staff were all very friendly and hospitable, nothing was too much trouble. The riad is quite peaceful once inside, we only saw 2 other guests the entire time. The beds were super comfortable and the air con kept the room at a perfect temperature.
It's a pretty long walk to get to the main square and it's next to a very busy road / taxi rank area once you get out of the smaller street, so it often felt stressful to get through that part before you reached anything you wanted to see. That said, having taxis close by was also useful at times. The pictures on the website are a bit deceptive as they give the impression that the pool and surrounding areas are much bigger and more glamorous than they were. Overall it was a nice play to stay, but next time I'd go for something much closer to jemaa el fna sqaure, that has more space and a bigger pool as it gets very hot.

Verified reviewLovely riad, cosy and calm, nicely decorated. Perhaps less glamorous than others, but welcoming and stylish. Special mention of the house cat. She’s beautiful.
The breakfast a good, but it would be nice to have a savoury choice.

Verified reviewBeautiful Riad centrally located in the Medina, minutes away from Souks and Bacha Coffee. Staff were super friendly and helpful, served up delicious Moroccan breads for breakfast with honey and preserves. Incredibly quiet and relaxing with a comfy bed and a beautiful deep traditional Moroccan bath.
Cash payment is preferably upon arrival but bank transfer details will be provided in advance if requested. Staff organised the transfer from and to the airport which was brilliant.
