Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

DenmarkThe hotel is more of a B&B than a hotel. The reception is a key box. We had trouble locating the code to gain access - it appeared to be sent by sms.
Nicely decorated room with interesting details. Very central. Close to restaurants and sights. Very good breakfast. Easy to find parking even in central Ystad.

United KingdomI think the bathroom is disappointing when you first see it. Even in a vintage hotel you expect a clean feel to the bathroom but it seems very unloved and not maintained. There are a few relatively cheap fixes that could be done to improve or. A nicer floor, tile grout refresh, painting the door. Additionally, it would be nice if the twin beds could be locked together. My partner and I wanted to cuddle but the beds just separated like a modern chastity belt of sorts.
Quirky, vintage style was my favourite, as well as a cosy, studio flat feel to the room. I love unusual hotels and it is very unusual. The bed was very comfortable and the cushions and the duvet very soft. I slept very well there. I really enjoyed my stay despite a couple of things marked below.

SwedenWhat could be better - hummus at breakfast for plant eaters. What could be helpful - a notice during the booking to the message that the parking is available and that it is a payable service per night (~10 EUR).
Breakfast was organised like an art exhibition and also had available plant based "milk" for the coffee and muesli. There were radishes and more other veggies and fruits, so the hotel is a decent choice for plant eaters. And top of all - the location of the hotel, just in the heart of Ystad and nearby the waterfront.

Swedenthere wasn't a lift to our rooms with were in an extension but normally this would have beenno problem but we were both having difficulties with our legs.
Very interesting breakfast area. Lots of artwork on the walls and mixture of regular lighting and candles. We thought it was like being on a stage set with figures dressed as historical characters and lots of unusual pieces of furniture and pottery. Our room was in an extension and was full of antique furniture and amusing pottery and plants.

DenmarkIts a shame that the standard rooms are really basic and mine (the twin room) was definitely too expensive considering the general standard of the room. Luckily, I didn't have to share it with anybody.
Breakfast was really good. The hot plates weren't hot, but that's normal for many hotels. Love the ambience of the hallways and breakfast room.

SwedenI am vegan and there were not many vegan options for breakfast. Breakfast is served in a beautiful room and there are lots of different types of food. It would have been nice to have vegan yogurt, vegan butter, hummus etc.
The staff is friendly and welcoming. It felt like coming to a family hotel (and this is what the hotel is), which is a nice change from impersonal hotels.

United KingdomBathroom rather small and the bedroom would have benefited from at least one larger bedside table.
Lovely genuine staff who showed real interest in us as holidaymakers. The hotel had a lot of character with beautiful art in our bedroom which overlooked the cobbled street leading to the central square. The bedroom was light and airy. Hotel very convenient for the town of Ystad. We enjoyed a good tasty breakfast.

United KingdomBreakfast was excellent - we loved the bread especially. Our room was nice and airy, with a view of the street. The room was quite minimalist - it had no wardrobe- but looked great and the beds were comfortable. There was a rack with hangers to hang our clothes - all you need really. Everyone was very friendly.
