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.).

ItalyCheck in is done via code. There is no one to contact from the staff in person, so you can only contact by phone. Even though we had some problems, once we called the staff, they helped us solve them promptly.
Great location, room is spacious and pool area is very nice. Breakfast is basic but you can find both salty and sweet foods.

PolandThe pool is actually quite small, but it's not a big deal since the sea is about 5 minutes away The breakfast, however, was the weakest part - the options were limited, with nothing warm to eat.
The check-in was easy. The room was nice and well equipped, really tidy as well. The balcony was tiny, but just enough, with a nice view.

IrelandPool area was quite small and sometimes there was no cushions to sit on the sun beds with. There was no one on reception for the full week I was there. I didn’t book a room with a balcony but I should have as the rooms were very warm at night time. There was a digital lock on the doors all doors in the hotel. The front door digital lock worked well but the digital lock for my room was very faulty and sometimes took 10-15 tries to get in.
Location is perfect, rooms were very clean and spacious, pool area was nice but very small

SwedenThis is an Airbnb style hotel, and there is no receptionist present most of the time. The location is also not searchable on Google Maps - if you look up the name of the hotel it shows a place on the other part of town. The wifi connection was pretty weak on the upper floor and I wasn’t able to stay connected on both my computer and phone most of the time. The walls are thin, so you can hear people on the same floor, also when they unlock the door. Although on the days I stayed there the weather wasnt great, the pool didnt look clean. Another thing is there was a carafe of water in the room which could have been there for days?! instead of bottled water. Even if my overall impression was positive, considering the above I think the price is too high for the value you get.
The place is new or recently renovated, so everything was fresh and clean. The location is central, and it’s easy to get around. Staff was accessible and helpful, which was much appreciated considering I had to speak to them a few times

SwitzerlandUnfortunately the organisation was terrible, and it caused us a lot of troubles, and wasted our precious time waiting. We arrived and the room wasn't ready, it was past check in time and no1 could help us. The toilet of the room had something that was in the middle of repairing and the room was dirty. We wanted to shower, change and go out, but we couldn't. And the worst part is that no1 was there to help us understand what was going on. We had to contact the numbers given in the emails provided prior arrival, and that was sort of a call center. People on the phone couldn't help, no1 knew what was happening, how long it will take. And meanwhile there were multiple people responding to my phone calls and messages to whom I had to explain the issue again and again! Really Really frustrating start of the holiday! And it took all our afternoon out to get this resolved. Still i didn't get any follow-up to make it up for the lost time and inconvenience caused! They told me there will be someone contacting me soon, and it's been over 2 months and no1 contacted despite my numerous reminders to them! It's not about the issue itself, things happen everywhere, it's about how it was managed that was a complete mess! And thats where they failed as an organisation to keep it low cost efficient! Where no1 is available and no1 is going to look after any issues!! I honestly don't recommend it to anybody!
The place was nice.

RomaniaNothing major about the place as it was truly great. One small detail to take in consideration is for the patio around the pool to be a bit more clean. Seemed kind of dusty.
Great value for money, excellent location, nice room with a very comfortable bed. And the room we had even had a little balcony overlooking the pool.

SerbiaCame here for the 2nd time. In hope that things that were not good will be OK this time since the property is more less new. But unlike the first time when issue was I didn't have a certain in the room and sun burnt me in the morning, this time this experience was something worse I had in years of traveling. (didn't even write any reviews on booking so far not good nor bad). Customer service, reception, forget about it. You will have generic chat bot responses, and once it is not it will be completely absurd and without a chance something can be solved. I came with a daughter, 4 years old, and booked another room for my business partner. Our rooms were without windows. View on a wall(like those small windows you have in a toilet usually). Even I overpaid this (980euros for 2 rooms for 4 nights) and came for a 2nd time I got NOTHING, not a discount, not any care, not any support. But it's OK, rooms disaster for a descent amount of money. Coming for a business meeting with daughter and entering the room. There are no hangers and not even a hanger rod in the room. Noone can solve anything for you after morning. It's a chain of properties poorly managed and with zero understanding for quests and requests. It was solved the day after somehow. No sorry, nothing extra. And also ok. And than the cherry on the top was a request to leave a five star review for this complete disaster of hospitality and place.
Food is ok, clean, nice pool for afternoon and morning stay, coffee in rooms, nice interior.

AustraliaSmoke alarms went off in the hallway quite often, which would wake us up while we slept. Otherwise, it was a great hotel
Overall, we had a great stay at St Doris. It is a newer hotel, that is set up very well technology wise, and requires limited staff to run the hotel. The room was normal sized and comfortable, and the location was perfect-one street up from Spinola Bay, very close to the Bay but still quieter at night.

United KingdomBreakfast was poor. Nothing was refrigerated, yoghurts were warm, bread was hard from being left out in the heat. Chopped veg was dried out, there were flies all over it because nothing was covered. We had to buy breakfast out. The fridge didn’t work - it actually made things warm. We were told there would be a refillable water bottle provided - it wasn’t. The hairdryer in the room was not compatible with the plug sockets in the room. Shower was warm for about a minute and then cold for the rest of the day. The WhatsApp number is an AI robot who says that things will be addressed ‘right away’ but they aren’t. An alarm went off in our room at 4:30am on our last night. We had to stand outside for half an hour and we never found out why this was or whether it was a real emergency. When I called to ask if this was a genuine emergency, they did not understand what I meant.
Very clean. Good room, modern with nice decor and spacious. Nice outdoor area and pool. Great location. Nice for a budget hotel. Good air conditioning.
