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...).

IrelandThe location was good for me . 30-minute walk to Boston centre. But there is plenty of food in the immediate local area. Facilities were clean and comfortable. The bathroom, although shared, was very clean . Didn't use tye kitchens, but it had everything one needs. I did not experience any noise at night , even though my first night was St Patricks Day, and the evening time was peaceful enough for me, the bar accross the road was not particularly busy on any of the nights . My room was on the top floor and to the front , with traffic starting outside around 7.30 in the morning, so not the end of the world . It's not the ritz, but it was clean and comfortable enough and served its purpose, and for Boston, which is generally very expensive, it offered reasonable value for money.

United KingdomHad everything I needed, as a place to sleep, and a base . It is basic accomodations Bed comfortable Quiet, I deliberately chose a room at the back. Bathroom seemed to be shared with one other room, decent shower. I didn't use the kitchen, but seemed to have all the basics, including washer and dryer. Decent TV with Google tv Would definitely use again.

United States of AmericaThere was nearly no parking anywhere. In this area, there is only residential parking in the night on the street and only 3 small public parking lots nearby and of course they were full. I think it should be more clear, that this accommodation is not good for people who travel with a car. AC did not work well, the room was very hot. Bedsheets had a lot of spots, it smelled washed, but looked dirty.
Was the cheapest option we could find.

New ZealandUnfortunately the room was very bright from the lights in the hallway, so I didn't get the best sleep there. Also being on the top floor, the smell of the food cooked in the communal kitchen was very strong upstairs, which was hard to escape with sealed windows
Bedroom was nice and clean, check in was easy, and they got the laundry working again the day after I asked about it

Costa RicaThe passcode that they sent us to enter the room was incorrect, we had to contact them and get a new one. It took them like 10-15min to wait. At the end it was resolved but it was a little bit frustrating. The room was in a 3rd floor and the stairs are really narrow, so it was difficult to go up with the luggage, nothing bad with this since they make it really clear that there is no elevator, but just take that into consideration when booking.
The property is really close by taxi to the airport. It was really clean, the description matched what we got. It has a lot of common areas that we did not used but it looked really nice and clean. The bathroom is shared with only 2-3 other rooms and it was really clean.

PortugalBad noise isolation, our room was on the ground floor near bathroom, and you can hear everything.(cars outside with really loud music, people going to the bathroom, going down the stairs, speaking in the corridor); tip - if you turn on the AC it helps a lot with baffling the noise. -About a 20min walk to the next T -It was great they let us keep our luggage after check -out, but I didn't love leaving them in the shared kitchen,. but i understand it's the possible solution being a staff less accomodation. They also have cameras, so I felt some safety leaving them.
Good value for money; -Easy self check-in/out -The room was good, minus the noise isolation. It has a comfy bed, desk, closet and tv with working Netflix account. -Bathroom was shared, but it was surprisingly okay cleaning wise (there is one per floor). Equiped with hair dryer, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner dispensers. -Host is super helpful and answers messages pretty fast -A lot of stores nearby -Tiny kitchen equiped with washing machines, great for longer stays; there is no dining table. -Exactly as described.

United States of AmericaOnly one towel pp for our whole stay. Loud doors and echoes in the halls. The bar across the street could get loud but we just put out air conditioner on to drown out the noise. The area is gentrified and very young crowds, we are in our 50's and gravitated more towards the seaport and north areas.
Very comfortable stay with enough amenities.
