How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Nothing to complain about
Very good location, in the city centre but in a quiet street. Amazing breakfast! Many choices - hot&cold, sweet&salty, many different baked goods, dairy free products, fruits, extras like salmon, avocado, etc. It was surprisingly great compare to the fact that this is not a fancy hotel and on a fair price! Bed was comfy, bathroom was nice, we had TV with many channels. They have a safe bicycle storage.

Nothing i didn't like personally. For some people the rooms might look old and basic, but they were perfectly comfortable nevertheless. If it's really hot outside there's only a fan available. It wasn't hot when i used the room but i can imagine that if it's 35°C outside this might be an issue.
Great old building turned into hotel. Nice looking bar/restaurant which unfortunately i didn't get to use as i checked in late. Staff was friendly and most helpful ( i needed a phone charger and they managed to find me one). The bike garage is a plus also. The room was perfectly clean and comfortable.

More baggage space would be nice. There is allot of unused cupboard space that could be converted to bag storage.
Breakfast was wonderful. Staff were very friendly. The room was cozy and warm. We could walk to the city Center for lunch and a few groceries.

It would have been great to have AC in the room in the summer heat, but at least there was a fan provided in the room. Also, there was no fridge in the room -- also a nice-to-have during summertime. In my experience, the 15 EUR parking fee (which I luckily didn't plan to pay) is not necessary, particularly on a Sat-Sun eve. There is plenty of street parking available around the hotel, free on Sundays, as well as underground parking lots at good overnight rates.
The central location of the place and the breakfast buffet were the highlights of my stay! The coffee in particular was just great. The room was clean and proper and the front desk staff smiling and helpful.

Although the rooms did have their own bathroom, it felt like we were staying in the dorms of a school. Not bad, but just not what we were expecting.
Breakfast was amazing. Everything was fresh. Very healthy. Nice selection of self-service beers and wines in the common area. Close to the cathedral and Main Street with restaurants

Not any important dislike for us, we stayed only one night.
I liked the hotel comfort, cleaness and warm room. I liked the breakfast served both in the menu and cooked ingredients, the fresh fruit juise was expectional. The coffee was lecker, delicious! And the receptions took care and helped us in our request for printing.
