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 reviewWe thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ryad Salama! We only stayed for two nights but were treated with such great hospitality and care. Abdul ensured all our questions were answered, all of the facilities were clean, and our room even came with a private sitting room and balcony! We loved the pool and the terrace, and had a great time there. They even packed us a breakfast to-go and arranged a driver for our early train back to Marrakech. But what set Ryad Salama apart from other stays for us was the extreme care for us. I left my passport (!!) behind and Elodie immediately called when she found out. She managed to arrange for a staff member’s brother to meet us in Casablanca and hand us the passport, who then also refused to take any compensation (!!!). The only thing I can do is to thank the entire ryad’s team, Elodie and Mustapha especially, for being such amazing people. We wish them the best and hope that this business thrives because of their kindness!

Verified reviewRyad Salama is an absolute gem in Fes! Our room was very spacious, nice and clean. The pool/garden area in the center is beautiful, and they offer optional dinner and complementary breakfast which was great. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. On our last day, we had to leave early before breakfast started so they packed us a to-go breakfast before we left. Overall totally worth it for the price, would come back!

Verified reviewAll of it, my only gripe and this is a personal preference only. The breakfast start too late for me. And because of that I was without my morning coffee. All they need to make this a perfect boutique hotel is a kettle in the room with tea bags and coffee for their guests. The owner was friendly managers and all the staff was great and reliable. Very peaceful and enjoyable and a perfect location in the Medina.
Breakfast starts too late. Needs a kettle for hot water in the room with tea bags and coffee.

The location is a bit difficult to get to, although that is the case for most ryads in Morocco. You have to go through the market and different narrow streets.
