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.).

SpainIt's a bit far from the center (around 30 mins walking). It is very easy to jump from one room to another through the terrace, which made us feel a bit uncomfortable, even more since the terrace door didn't close properly. A/C was a bit noisy.
Very comfortable and clean. The room was spacious, with a nice terrace as well. Breakfast was pretty decent, and there are lots of parking spaces around. Very calm area at night, and the staff was overall friendly. Good value for money.

RomaniaRoom 21 needs some big improvements. The ceiling is about to fall down because of some water infiltrations and the windows are very bad at sound proofing because you hear all the street traffic.

BelgiumThe matrass and the pillow are not good 😐 . The breakfast was very simply (no fried eggs, no bacon, no omelet...and so on). The coffee was good but very very limited
The location is a bit far from the center but the bus stops just front of the hotel Elena. By food also is not very far from the center, just about 15 min to walk

RomaniaRoom: The beds were very soft and thus it was hard to rest properly.
Breakfast: You can choose between 4 or 5 versions to your own delight. It was decent. Staff: They were very helpful and very nice. This made the stay from average to good. Room: It was big and bright and clean. The TV worked fine and the balcony was nice. Location: It was relatively quiet as it is not on the main road that goes through the city. Bathroom: The toilet flushed properly and there was always hot water. The shower cabin was properly sized.

Continental breakfast was what we expected. Room was large and quiet, bed was comfortable and nice to have restaurant and cafe in the same building. Walking to old town takes not too long. And extra plus is the green market near by. And ofcourse, parking is safe.

Poland-
We had a great stay at Hotel Elena in Veliko Tarnovo. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming — truly one of the highlights of our visit. We arrived late in the evening, and although the restaurant was about to close, they still made us a pizza, which was a very kind gesture. There’s a nice little terrace to relax on, à la carte breakfast in the morning, and smiles all around from the team throughout our stay. There’s also a convenient parking lot right across from the building, and the hotel is within walking distance to the city center. Highly recommended!

Breakfast was okay. You can choose from several products, but the pancakes had a sour taste, not sure if from any of the ingredients. The staff was very friendly. There is a parking space which is a plus.
