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 reviewNadia is an amazing host. She made our stay in Marrakesh unforgettable.The breakfast is very delicious and offers a variety of traditional Moroccan dishes and really amazing Moroccan tea. The place is very clean and spacious with a large bathroom. The location is close to the busy streets of the medina but the street itself is small and quiet. It is really easy to get by foot to the main attractions and nice restaurants.
Thank you Maggie

Verified reviewThe property was lovely, very comfortable. Nadia also, although no English spoken so a little difficult with the language barrier. I think it would have been good to replace the towels during the weeks stay but it didn't happen. For me personally the location was a bit far out and not easy to find, especially in the dark.

Verified reviewNadia was the best host ever; she came to greet us to the taxi, helped with booking a hammam, and so on. Despite the language barrier, we could discuss everything. We really felt at home and had perfect, tasty, homemade breakfasts. The Riad is about 15 minutes walk from Jamaa el Fna, but is in a more quiet area. Nadia was also very flexible, as a lot of programs in Marrakech start at 8, so we had a few early breakfasts as well. We slept extremely well; it was quiet and relaxing. Highly recommended!
Nothing.

Verified reviewNadia is a great host, the absolute best that you could imagine and she is so generous and very helpful. She really cares about her guests and their well being. She is a fantastic chef and the meals that she made for me were better than any restaurant. When I needed directions to go somewhere she offered to escort me there, when I needed help with anything, like getting a SIM card they went and got one and assisted me with it's instructions. The accommodation was great, the bedroom and bathroom were very nice and the bed was really comfortable, I slept like a baby. After I left to continue my trip in Morocco she messaged me a few times to see how things were going and to ask how I was doing. She is a wonderful and caring person.
Everything was beyond my expectations, it is a great place to stay

Verified reviewThe riad is very easy to get to via taxi (You can't take a taxi to the front door, but you can use Poste Bab el-Khemis as a good drop-off/pick-up point). It's about a 5 minute walk from there. The riad is on a side street on the north side of the medina, which meant it was very calm. I liked not immediately stepping into a crowed when I exited the front door. At night, the riad was quiet. Nadia is an attentive host and makes delicious breakfast each morning. She gave us a restaurant recommendations and suggested using InDrive to request a cab. I appreciated her sharing her local knowledge.
We were almost charged for playing backgammon. The charge was removed, but it seemed odd. If you see the game out, I don't recommend playing it.

Verified reviewNadia was a welcoming host. I felt as if I spend a few nights in my auntie’s house. She is very caring and her breakfasts are wonderful. Highly recommend.
I was a little surprised that there wasn’t any hand soap. Luckily, it wasn’t a problem as I carry my hand sanitizer everywhere.

Verified reviewI had a lovely stay at this Riad in Marrakesh. The location was ideal—quiet yet close to the main attractions. Nadia, the host, was welcoming and helpful, making the stay easy and enjoyable. The breakfast was fresh and tasty, a great way to start the day. I’d definitely recommend this Riad for a comfortable visit to Marrakesh.

Verified reviewI couldn’t have had a better stay here. The riad is beautifully decorated, functional, perfectly peaceful and quiet in the busy medina. Everything in the room was extremely well thought out and it was the cleanest riad I stayed in during my trip, with the best shower I experienced on my whole trip. Nadia is a perfect host, she is extremely kind, helpful, and accommodating. Always available to help! Made me feel like home and she makes the best tea and breakfast that I had during my trip. Everything at this stay was perfect and there is attention to every detail! I know exactly where to book when I come back to Marrakech and will be recommending to everyone.
Not a single thing I can think of.

The car doesn’t arrive to the door. You have to walk a minute or two to reach the hotel. But the hotel staff was excellent and responsive, if you call they will meet you and help you with your luggage.

Verified reviewI stayed at Riad dar karmen for 6 nights. Nadia is super nice and very welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. The room was as in the picture so I got what I expected and it was very comfortable. The rooftop terrace was my favourite spot but I also chilled out in the communal area which is beautifully tradicional when it was raining. The breakfasts are substancial and very tasty, I love all the different types of bread and pastries served. Nadia doesn't speak English and I only have school girl French but we had some nice conversation with the help of Google translate!! I also had dinner in the Riad twice and I can honestly say itwas better than the other dinner I ate outside, very good value and again substantiantial and very tasty. The riad is a short walk to most things and at night its very quiet. I definitely recommend a stay here, it is very good value and Nadia makes it feel like home.
Would've been good to know about the tourist tax when booking as I wasn't aware.

Verified reviewThe location of the riad was great, very central and could walk to most places around the Medina. The rooms were well sized. The host (Nadia) is amazing and was very accommodating of anything we needed during our stay. She also let us leave our bags on the day we checked out. She doesn't speak any English but we managed quite well by using google translate. Breakfasts every morning were delicious - freshly squeezed orange juice, eggs, traditional moroccan bread and spreads with mint tea!
The only thing to call out would be that the bathrooms (shower and toilet) didn't have any doors so that might be quite awkward
