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.).

The lovely ladies were very friendly and helpful! And they made us a nice and fresh breakfast every morning. Besides that, the riad was very beautiful and pleasant to stay at. With a good location close to everything

FranceThe A/C was working well but it was quite noisy.
Very good value for money. Nice and traditional riad and amazing staff. Good room with a big and comfortable bed, A/C and very well located. The host was extremely kind, she offered free tea and biscuits for the entire stay and she even kept our luggage for few days. I really recommend this as it s a very good value for money and you are in the middle of everything (shops, square for taxis and markets)

CanadaOMayma was an amazing host. She was very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was excellent. When we wanted it early, there was no problem. She did our laundry without any charge. We had a large, nice room. The shower had good pressure and hot water. It was nice to be a little away from the hustle and bustle of the main square. When going upstairs, we found the inconsistency in step height to be charming and fun, but it could be a problem for others.

Czech RepublicIt is a great place to stay in Marrakesh, a true island of quiet in the middle of the city's madness. The hosts were exceptionally kind and helpful. I highly recommend ordering breakfast here, you won't regret it. If we are back in Marrakesh, we'll definitely choose this place again. No jokes, it was one of the best experiences in Morocco in general.

NetherlandsBreakfast was great! We stayed here for 10 days. Every day there was some small variations, mostly including freshly baked bread, pancakes, yoghurt, jam, tea, coffee and warm milk. The sweetest women run the riad. Cummincation was easy, they make breakfast between 08:00 and 10:00, but if you need it at another time, they're very accommodating. The location is right at the edge of the medina, close to everything. We did everything by foot.

United KingdomJust be aware that some rooms are accessed via quite narrow and steep stairs, but that was fine for us.
Dar Mchicha is a lovely simple riad tucked away in a quiet location on the edge of the medina. It is not luxurious but has character and everything we wanted for a short stay. The two ladies who run the riad are exceptionally kind and helpful and provide wonderful breakfasts. They also arranged taxi transfers for us to and from the airport.

Riad Dar Mchicha is just a perfect place! Perfect location, tasty breakfasts, comfortable beds and helpful owners! I am sure I will stay there again when I come back to Marrakesh and also will recommend it to my friends! Really good experience ☺️ We had a trip booked early morning and asked for earlier breakfast and they had no problem with preparing that for us, such a welcoming place!

This is a nice classic riad type of hostel. Like in most places in Morocco your room will not have any windows. Otherwise most basic comforts like hot water are there. My room also had an heater that was very good in the winter time. They also have a tiny balcony upstairs. For 2 euros you get totally fine breakfast.

United KingdomBreakfast was amazing we enjoyed a host of options from pancakes, bread, eggs, yogurt and so on. The staff were also amazing as we had to leave early on 2 of the days and they had breakfast prepared for us in no time and even gave us breakfast to take in a lunch box and bag. Location was great as we were right in the heart of the city. Just of one of the main streets to the square you would walk past lots of local stores and were only around a 5 to 10 minute walk from the main square. We had the terrace room and it was so peaceful up there we could play cards, have fun and watch the sun set on the Riads in the distance it was beautiful. Would 100% recommend and would definitely stay again, the staff were exceptional.

Very nice traditional Riad in the Old Town of Marrakesh. We had taxi arranged from and to the airport by the Riad. They also printed out our boarding passes. The breakfast was delicious, cooked by the lovely ladies running the hotel. The ladies are very nice and make you feel very welcomed and comfortable. We stayed in the room with the rooftop terrace. The bathroom was clean, the room is spacious, the mattress is firm and comfortable. We walked everywhere, we like to explore on foot. The Riad is in a quiet street off the busy souks. Excellent value for money. Great base to explore Marrakesh.
