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):
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.
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.).

NetherlandsHonestly, we liked everything. If we had to mention something small, it would be the slightly wobbly toilet and the fact that there was no toilet paper holder.
We really enjoyed our stay here. We had booked the suite, and it was more than worth it! The room was spacious, the bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom was nice and roomy as well. Our room was cleaned thoroughly every day, and each morning we were served a tasty breakfast. Some more variety in the breakfast would be a nice improvement. The staff was very kind and always tried to have a little chat with us, even if their English was not perfect. The night staff did speak good English and was also very friendly. We would like to thank all of them for everything. Also for preparing a takeaway breakfast when we had a day trip to Essaouira! 😊

HungaryThe only thing we didn't like was that breakfast only included one glass of fresh orange juice, could've drank a liter.
An absolute gem, every detail was truly stunning. Great value for money, central location, right next to the souks. The mint tea we received upon arrival was devine.

ItalyA riad in the heart of Marrakech, a fantastic location just a short walk from the Jemaa el-Fna square. The riad is a peaceful oasis in the middle of the medina—perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the souks and the city’s wonders. The welcome was warm, and the atmosphere truly authentic. Highly recommended!

RomaniaI definitely recommend this riad. The hosts are very friendly and hospitable, they helped us with arranging transportation from the airport to the riad and vice versa which made everything much easier. The riad is centrally located near the Jemaa el-Fnaa square but still on a quiet street. The terrace of the riad is very nice and it is very pleasant to spend time outside on the terrace. The architecture of the riad and it is decorated tastefully.

United KingdomStaying at Riad Bab Chems was a beautiful experience. The riad has a stunning garden with lush greenery and small trees, giving it a peaceful and refreshing atmosphere. The decor is rich with historical items, adding a unique charm to the place. Every morning, we were gently woken by the sound of the azan and the delightful aromas of a homemade breakfast prepared by a lovely lady who made me feel as though I was at home with my mother. The view was fantastic, and the entire experience was a wonderful find. I highly recommend it!

United KingdomMadam of the Riad, her sister and rest of staffs was so lovely. Very welcoming, kind and helpful. Never in my life I had experience such hospitality. Riad just so beautiful and room just perfect. Breakfast was lovely as well. I felt like home and felt safe throughout my stay. The property also has an amazing rooftop. The location of property near by all souks easy access to shop, or even try street foods, just walk to Jemaa El Fna. You can find atm also around square so that’s helpful. Just so in love with its people who work in Riad and Riad itself. Would come back to stay here again and again. Thank you so much to everyone in Riad Bab Chems. You are for me 5 stars ♥️

FinlandIf you’re a light sleeper, bring earplugs. You can hear everything from that room, people coming in and out and their conversations. And also if the light is put on at night in the hall, it also lights up the room.
