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.).

United KingdomWe had a great stay, the location was great - very easy walking to all the main attractions. We were travelling with our 2 and half year old, and everyone at the Riad was so lovely, they made it so easy with our daughter and really went out of their way with her, the kitten was a particular highlight. The food we had at the Riad was the best we had in Morocco. Would highly recommend.

NetherlandsThe reservation was for a 3p bedroom and when we arrived there had been a mistake in the booking system and were put in a 2p bedroom. The next day, this was solved with sincere apologies from the host - we didn't mind it too much.
The host Hicham made us feel so welcome and was so helpful with many of our questions. Also the breakfast prepared by Brahim was the highlight of the day, everyday we were looking forward again to get out of bed and enjoy a wonderful breakfast in the beautiful garden.

United Kingdomn/a - we literally loved everything!
Absolutely sensational stay at Riad Dada Messouda! A picturesque little oasis tucked away in the vibrant chaos of the old town. The riad is beautiful and welcoming, but what truly sets it apart is Hicham, a total legend! He went above and beyond, helping me pull off a birthday day full of surprises for my wife and treated us with incredible warmth and generosity from the moment we arrived. This place has heart. 100% recommended, a true hidden gem! p.s: was really nice to meet you Hicham, thanks for everything! <3

Switzerlandnothing!
The hospitality of the owners was truly wonderful – they are kind, friendly, and extremely helpful. The Riad is small and located in a lively area, but it’s quiet at night. They took care of everything: picked us up at the parking area outside the Medina, helped carry our bags, and prepared a delicious dinner. Dinner needs to be booked in advance, but it’s absolutely worth it. We had a chicken tagine – the best we had during our entire 12-day trip through Morocco. The rooftop terrace is also a lovely, relaxing place to spend some time.

United StatesThe location was not my favourite, it is a bit of a walk from the parking lot/taxi drop-off. Public parking is not free, although quite cheap (approx. $3 a day).
Beautiful oasis in the middle of the chaotic medina market. Very nice staff. Beautiful terrace with a nice area for relaxation. Rooms are a bit small but they made the best out of the old riad. Nicely decorated too.

TunisiaWe had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful riad in Marrakech! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. A special thank you to Ibrahim, who was exceptionally friendly, helpful, and always ready with a warm smile and great tips for exploring the city. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, with a generous variety of fresh and delicious options that gave us the perfect start to each day. The location is fantastic — close to everything yet peaceful and relaxing once you step inside the riad. One of the highlights of our stay was Messoud, the riad’s adorable and very special cat. He brought so much joy and charm to our time there — we truly fell in love with him! Highly recommend this riad for anyone visiting Marrakech. We’ll definitely be back!

United KingdomThe highlight of our trip. This stunning riad provided a secure calm escape from the amazing madness of this city. Helpful friendly staff from start to finish. It began to feel like home. The breakfasts were superb, truly. Fresh oj, fruits, home made breads and pastries and eggs. With great coffee. Our stylish room was large with a great bathroom / wet room, kept fresh daily. A lovely rooftop to relax in. It’s about a 15-20 minute walk to the main square which was fine for us as it was all part of the experience. An opportunity to see the real Marrakesh. Amazing value and we will be back.

United KingdomNot too much of an issue for us but the bathroom has no separate door to the bedroom. My husband didn’t think the bed was too comfortable but it was fine for me. One thing we would have liked to have known is all the extras we had to pay for like the taxis, lunch and waters we had to pay in cash. We assumed we could pay on card so we had to go out and get extra cash. Not a major issue but good for people to know.
We had such an amazing stay at Riad Dada. I cannot express how helpful and friendly the staff were. We organised our airport transfer through them and because of the location when we arrived as far as we could by taxi, Hisham came to meet us to take us to the Riad. What a hidden paradise it was. We had the most amazing lunch (the best meal we had all trip) and our room was ready early. There was nothing that the staff wouldn’t help us with. The Riad is about a 20min walk from the main square/Souks which can be quite tricky to navigate but once we did it once we knew the way and it was easy to find. It was a great location to be able to walk everywhere….if you can easily walk 20/30mins in one direction. For us we spent the trip walking around the media stopping at all the rooftop bars eating the amazing Moroccan food. When coming home at night Ibrahim was always there, again offering us anything we needed and served us the most amazing breakfast. The room was beautifully decorated and we really felt like part of the family. Thank you so much, I would recommend this place to anyone.
