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.).

United StatesThe front desk girl, who works the day shift, was very low energy, bad manners, and unprofessional. She acted like everything we asked in terms of service was a nuisance and always seemed very annoyed that she had to help us. My fiance and I never have issues with other staff who are friendly. This is not our first encounter with this same young lady. We have stayed here before. She has the kind of bad energy that ruins your entire stay. She's not good for business. The front desk is the most important area in a hotel because they are the gatekeeper who set the entire mood of a customers' stay. Im a US Merchant Marine, and I stay hotels all over the world. Her bad attitude ranks as the worst I've experienced. This will be our last stay at the Galaxy.
I like the accommodations. The location is good and central to everything. Free Breakfast and Room Service. Nice Roof top restaurant.

SwitzerlandBooked via booking.com in USD but at the reception I was told that they only accept UGX. So they took my UGX but at a very bad exchange rate. Making 5% profit extra by charging UGX instead USD is not a good idea. Loudry service is good but overpriced.
The workers are friendly.

NetherlandsThe flexibility in the restaurant. I could not exchange saucidge + chip for omelet. Extending one night at site was confirmed by recption, then rejected while having breakfast, confirmed again, rejected again while working in the room and then in the end their problem was suddenly solved, so confirmed again. Very annoying and disturbing. A bit noisy due to a bypass (illegal??) directed by a guy with a refery whistle. Is ear drums must suffer.

KenyaThe location was a bit noisy. When we left the hotel to go shop or something, we were asked to leave our room keys. That was odd to me, I don't know if it is the policy in the country or just the hotel.
