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.).

PakistanRoom was smaller as compared to other property but as this is a budget hotel so no complain at all in this price.
Room was OK, hot water 24 hours available. Good location 5-7 mins walk to Lake. Everything was ok as per standard of the property and Ms. Lucy was really a helpful person.

ItalyThe pictures doesn't correspond to the actual room. They look much more nicer but when you get there you feel a bit disappointed. This was a bit all over Vietnam tho. Late night was a bit loud in the hallway.
The lady was nice and waited for me cus I arrived quite late there. Overall if you looking for a place to sleep and are not too bothered about the conditions I guess it's ok, good location, close to train street.

New ZealandThe in-room facilities such as the TV and kettle are dated but I found them unnecessary anyway.
Convenient location and surprisingly quiet. Morning markets on your doorstep. But the star of this property is the wonderful host, Ms Lucy. She went above and beyond to facilitate my airport pickup, and helped out with other things like washing and organising taxis. She’s very busy but I always felt supported, with attentive communication over WhatsApp at virtually any time of day.

NetherlandsThere were people a floor above us who were screaming a lot. Thankfully they didn't do this at night but it was still weird and it got crazy sometimes. Also there were cigarettes in front of our door every day. Not a huge problem but it shouldn't be there. It was unclear if and when the room would be cleaned. After a couple days we found a "please clean my room sign" to hang on our door in a drawer but it would be great if the host would have told us this. Minor things.
The room was big and clean! Location was great. Host was sweet. The room was dark which was nice for sleeping. There was an elevator which was nice! We had a pleasant stay for 5 nights!

1. Perfect location - in the middle of Old Quarter. 2. Accommodating staff - we were able to check in at 3AM. 3. Room cleaning, fresh towels every two days. 4. How water and good pressure in the shower. 5. Good working WiFi and AC.
