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.).

AustraliaThe bathrooms were a bit of a mixed bag with some minor grime and low water pressure in the shower, but these were small details that didn't detract from our overall experience.
Our stay at this beautiful Riad was an absolute delight, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were simply amazing. One attendant in particular was unbelievably helpful and organized us a delicious breakfast, even though we were leaving early. He truly went out of his way to ensure we were ready for our adventure. The Riad itself is a sanctuary of calm. It's so beautiful, clean, and has a wonderfully serene atmosphere. The rooftop terrace was a standout feature, providing a sense of spaciousness and a lovely place to relax. Our rooms were also a highlight, thanks to their incredibly effective air conditioning, which was a huge win on a hot day. Comfort was paramount, and the beds and pillows were immaculate, providing us with an incredibly comfortable night's sleep. If you're someone who values a good-quality mattress, I would highly recommend this Riad. Perhaps the best part of our stay was the Riad's central location. It's just a few minutes' walk from the main square and is perfectly situated for exploring the surrounding souks and attractions. We felt so well-cared for and would highly recommend this Riad to anyone visiting the area.

ItalyRoom: Our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable and clean as they changed the sheets everyday. There was also an electric kettle if you want to have some tea/coffee. The air conditioner was a plus too especially after walking for hours under the heat. Location: The riad is very much accessible by foot going to the main square and to the main road if you want to get a cab. There are also lots of places to see nearby such as the Medersa Ben Youssef and Le Jardin Secret. Service: The service they provided was top notch. We arrived late (around 2AM) because our flight was delayed but Kassim still waited for us outside the riad. Every morning of our stay, Mohamed served us an abundant breakfast. There were coffee, fresh orange juice, mint tea, 3 types of bread, and eggs. A big thanks again to the whole staff of Riad O-Ly for making our stay a memorable one and for helping us with everything we needed, there’s nothing more we could ask for.

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Location was in the heart of the medina. Transport arranged by Riad was excellent and they had arranged a porter to carry luggage to the accomodation. Nice breakfast. Very quiet for being in the midst of it all.

Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed with traditional Moroccan tea and biscuits, which set the tone for a truly pleasant stay. The room was spacious, well-appointed, and featured comfortable beds, along with a charming terrace that enhanced the experience. Breakfast was of high quality, and on the day of my excursion, the staff kindly prepared a takeaway breakfast for me. The entire team was exceptionally friendly and respectful, offering valuable tips on the best places to visit in the city. Housekeeping was also excellent, with the room cleaned and tidied daily. The location is ideal—just a 10-minute walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa Square.

United StatesThe walk from the main path through the Medina to the riad door is a bit confusing at first. Posting some signage might help.
The staff were exceptionally kind and attentive to our needs. For example, packing us a breakfast when we needed to leave early one day, and walking me & my luggage out of the Medina to a pick-up spot for my airport ride, which they arranged. Great location in the Medina. Breakfast included a variety of choices, on the scenic rooftop. Good wifi. Would absolutely staying here again.

United StatesThe room itself had no view, but there were other places in the riad where I could sit and absorb the view.
Marrakech can be sensory overload. Riad O Ly was a true respite. I felt cared for. The staff took care of everything, even when changes came up in my itinerary. I had flexibility to sit in the courtyard or rooftop areas when I needed to recharge after exploring the city. And the staff gave me a paper map and told me of a wayfinding app that didn't require wifi.

BelgiumThere is a mosque nearby so you will be woken up by the call to prayer. Nothing you can do about it but good to be aware if you like to sleep in.
Very nice riad near the heart of the medina. We stayed in a couple of different riads in Marrakech so had a chance to compare a few in the same price range. For Riad O Ly, the staff were very helpful and welcoming. The Riad is beautiful, but probably not as renovated as some of the others we stayed in. It wasn't really an issue, just something we noticed. The location is really central. Breakfast on the terrace was among the better breakfasts we had. Rooms were a reasonable size but could be cramped if you are traveling with several suitcases. The riad arranged airport pick-up for us and I do recommend it. The riad is not easy to find and a taxi cannot get very close to it. The car dropped us at one of the medina gates where someone from the riad met us and walked us to the riad (about 7min walk).

GermanyFinding the property on the first day was quite difficult, there are no signs and Google Maps is only somewhat helpful. But the locals quickly helped us and showed us the way there. Our room had a window towards the medina and it was sometimes a bit noisy at night, but that greatly varied with each individual day.
The warm and heartfelt welcome we received when arriving allowed us to very easily settle in in Marrakesh, and the location in the medina made exploring the souks very convenient. The breakfast was exceptional, being freshly and thoughtfully prepared every morning and featuring a changing variety eggs, jams, bread, and Moroccan specialties. It was a wonderful, quiet harbour and place for relaxation in the busy hubbub of Marrakesh.

United KingdomHard to find anything i disliked. Except, it was hard to find the Riad, specially in the dark after a flight. Nothing much bad about the riad, except the loud doors when closing/opening the lock. Everything else is excellent.
The experience of staying was made way better by having the welcoming and friendliest of the staff. Specially Wahid and Mohamed. Location was perfect, centre of medina, yet tucked away so it’s quiet.
