Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

The set-up is BnB. The rooms were spotless, the towels and the bedroom linens felt like being laundered at home. Located in a beautiful and peaceful neighborhood (Oasis). Had an extension with several outlets conveniently placed on the bedside table.

My wife and I loved the accommodations. The room and bathroom were very clean.The bed was very comfortable. The host was very accommodating to our needs and she was very nice. My wife has continuing training throughout the year in the area. The hotels in the immediate area are very disappointing . Thus, we were very fortunate to find this jewel in the area. On our next training session, we will select this room again.

United States of AmericaThe only thing that could have been better was trying to find a place to stay. After hours of searching online, I finally found Marlens place that was available. Once we arrived we were ecstatic with the accommodations and hostess.
Marlen was a great hostess. She welcomed us at the door and gave us a thorough tour of the house. She showed us all the kitchen options for food or drink, showed us the living area and the back yard/porch area. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was great.

Marlen is such a wonderful person and I really enjoyed talking with her. She has been trying to help me a lot and I felt like I was at home. I am so glad that I stayed here. Very beautiful and quiet place. I saw cute baby deer outside.

GermanyI can't think of anything
Our stay at Marlen's was great. Marlen is a great hostess. She is originally from Germany and therefore speaks perfect German and English. My son and I stayed with her for one night because we wanted to go tubing in San Marcos on our road trip around Texas. Our bedroom with its own bathroom was very comfortably furnished, the bed was very comfortable. We were allowed to use Marlen's kitchen and living room. Everything was very neat and clean. At breakfast, our wishes were taken into account and because we got along well immediately, she kept us company while we ate. Unfortunately, their rooms were already fully booked for the following days, otherwise we would have spontaneously stayed longer.
