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 reviewComfortable location, good-size room with kitchen, and wide bathroom.
Shower head broken, water in the sink is clogged, air conditioner works questionably. After the workers who were smth fixed next to the door, garbage was thrown around in the room all the time, even though the hotel maid was in the room.

Verified reviewThe location is excellent, right in the city center, with easy access to all main attractions. The price is also very good for the area, making it a great value overall.
The room wasn’t cleaned for three days despite our requests, and we had to ask several times for fresh towels. We booked a king-size bed but received two single beds joined together. The air-conditioning couldn’t be adjusted and was always very cold. At night, some noise from other rooms and outside could be heard.

Verified reviewLocation was amazing, by the sea and loads of shops + nice cafes and felt safe to walk around at night. Breakfast was good although could get repetitive. Helpful staff, great value for money.
Cleaning service was bad, e.g not leaving toilet paper/ slippers once and not cleaning the room properly. For instance, toilet wasn't cleaned.

Verified reviewGood location
They say daily housecleaning but they never cleaned our room once during our 5 night stay. This is not a problem normally if we are expecting it, but they kept promising to come each day and never did. While breakfast is fine, we often had to ask for coffee when the pot ran out (and we always arrived early, not at the end of the breakfast period). Again, no big deal, but it is little details (and there were several more like lights that didn’t work in the room, a constantly dripping water valve in our bathroom that created a constant pool of water on the bathroom floor. I mentioned it to the manager, but it never got fixed) and the lack of attention to them that made our stay “just ok and not great”

Verified reviewExcellent location. Right at the foot of the buzz of Izmir with hundreds of restaurants, cafes and shops. Aircon was very welcoming after a hot day in Izmir.
They were busy renovating, but we can't wait to see what it looks like when finished!

Verified reviewThe room was clean and comfortable. The position of the hotel was very central to alsancak and near to the station.
I sent a WhatsApp message to the number of the hotel, asking for a taxi. But i did not receive an answer.
