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 reviewAs someone who also works in the hospitality industry, I tend to notice the small details that make a big difference and I must say this hotel truly impressed me From the moment I arrived the service was warm professional and genuinely welcoming You can tell the team here takes pride in what they do The atmosphere throughout the property was inviting and well-maintained creating a relaxing environment that felt like a home away from home The location is also perfect convenient and easy to access with everything I needed close by What really stood out was the staff: friendly, attentive, and always ready to help without being overbearing. It's rare to find such consistency across departments and as someone in the same line of work I deeply appreciate the effort and coordination it takes to deliver that level of service. Highly recommended and I’ll definitely be returning. Keep up the great work! Mention to Fatimazahrae and soufian;)

Verified reviewSocco hostel was great, would definitely go back ! Very friendly staff, amazing rooftop view, great breakfast. We booked the 6 bed private room and it was perfect for one night. Also very good location for the old town
Since it is in the Medina the hostel doesn’t have an elevator, but this was not a big deal for us

Verified reviewRocco hostel was good for the solo travelers, services & cleaning is good. They take care for each room. Property is best & clean with awesome view from roof. You can meet with new people, it was awesome feeling.
I didn't like the location , especially for the family if you come. But it's good for the solo traveler.

Verified reviewEverything was clean , I had everything I needed :) it was in the Medina and really near in Walking distance to Petit socco, the Beach and Lots of food options nearby. And I really felt like leaving as a Family.I loved the staff, I already miss them honestly !! I will definitely go back .they helped me with a lot of things and recommend a good restaurants nearby the hostel as well !
Just that if I have a luggage it’s unconvenient to get there . I just had a small one but with a big one it would have been really difficult. And maybe one or two more possibilities in the room for plugs.

Verified reviewIt’s one of the best hostels in Tangier, because of its location inside the old medina, where you can truly enjoy the vibes. It has a cool, modern decoration, and you can’t miss the rooftop, which offers the best view of the medina. The staff were incredibly nice, especially Soufiane and Othmane, who were the friendliest and most helpful people.

1. Too expensive for what you get 2. I forgot my swimsuit and told them right after I left and where is it. They said they found it. When I asked to send it, they suddenly could not find it. It was a very expensive swimsuit.
Hello Avishag! Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the positive aspects of your stay — we’re happy you enjoyed the rooms, our location, and the rooftop. We’re sorry to hear about the issue with your swimsuit. As clearly stated in our policy, we cannot be held responsible for lost or forgotten items in COMMON AREA. In your case, a swimsuit was indeed found, but it did not match the description you provided and was confirmed not to be yours. While we understand your frustration, we believe it’s unfair to base your overall experience on the loss of a personal item, especially when it’s not due to the fault of the hostel or staff. We appreciate your understanding and wish you all the best in your future travels. Warm regards, Socco’s Team Manager - Reda
