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.).

Czech RepublicIt is a bitty noisyas it is on the main street. It is a bit old fashion from the furniture point of view.
Very nice breakfast, lot of food. It is nearby old city center and in the new area with lots of restaurants. Staff of the hotel is very friendly, I was able to agree on later check out 12:00. Parking is on the street in front of the hotel, dedicated places.

PolandWay to the Old Center takes around 20 with very steep hill - this is not a minus of hotel itself, but something to remember ;)
Hotel is close (7 minutes) to the intercity bus station. Situated on the main city street, outside turistic Old Town, there are all local cafe, restaurants and shops nearby. Room was comfortable and very clean. There is a shared terrace linking all rooms. Staff very kind and helpful.

GermanyIn the morning there was a brief moment with no water in our room. Though after telling the staff they managed to fix the problem within 10 minutes or so. Apart from that there's really not much to criticize. Very solid place.
We got a great little room on the top floor of this hotel that had recently been renovated. Even though the hotel is located right next to a relatively busy street, there was very good soundproofing and the road speeds are quite low so there was barely any noise in the room. Beds were comfy, everything was very clean and it's only about 01-15 minutes walk into the old town. The staff of the hotel is exceptionally friendly. Would definitely come back another time.

NetherlandsThe rooms were fine, not that super spacious, but had everything you needed. Some of the rooms in our group had a very small shower, but overall it was fine :). One room was way too small, but we could change rooms straightaway so that was good service! PS. the location is good, but be prepared for the hike up to the city centre ;)
We stayed with a group of 30 people, and had a great time! The breakfast was very nice, the rooms were fine as well, and the view was superb! However, our main highlight was the staff! The owner/manager of the hotel was so helpful, and helped us fix a bus to Sarande for the entire group. He even helped us haggle with the bus driver when he tried to ask a ridiculous amount of money from us, so so kind! The bar on the second floor was also great! Nice and airconditioned, and big selection of drinks All the rooms had their own bathrooms and towels were changed daily!

Slovakia- Nothing of major concern. - The balcony is more like an open terrace for several rooms which seemed a little impractical. - Window curtains not that great so you may get light early on in the summer.
- Modern, clean hotel, kind and helpful staff. - Convenient location. Less than 10min walk to the bus station. For the Old town you need to hike up but it's well doable in 15-20min. - My room was on the 5th floor with great view of the castle.
