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.).

Verified reviewThe room was clean, it offered a decent bed and a nice garden view. The parking had sufficient room for enough cars and offers good maneuverability. The bus stop is only a few minutes away on foot.
I had never seen before a bathroom right across the entrance to the room. While functional, this did not strike me as a great arrangement. The location is rather far away from downtown Hamburg and requires more than 40 minutes of commute to reach it. The area did not strike me as particularly safe. It struck me that other guests could be heard screaming or yelling from their rooms. The staff only worked until 3PM, which meant that you are forced to pay by card if you arrive any later. There was no soap in the bathroom and the staff did not address my question through the Booking app.

Verified reviewEasiness for check in. View from the window. Price and location.
We wish someone would've at least given it a quick once over before arrival. The floor was dirty, crunching under our feet and several spiders who looked very comfortable hanging in several places easy to walk into. We requested a double bed but got two singles put together with a big gap in-between. Not comfy for a couple at all! All furniture was old and slanted. Shower doors so badly, they didn't even close properly.

Verified reviewAffordable pricing and within short driving distance from HH center. Free parking when parking space is available. Not guaranteed space.
Disgusting cigarette smell! Every afternoon and night cigarette smoke on hallway, with smoke passing through thin walls to our rooms, despite this being a non smoking hotel with visible non-smoking signs. Our clothes stank like cigarette smoke. I wrote to the hotel with this concern during my stay, but they choose not to respond at all. Finally found a reception worker and issued the problem with cigarette smell. She just told me; "there were nothing they could or would do about the smoking". Completely ignorance towards customer and own hotel policy. Loud and noisy from 5:00 AM 2 nights straight. Very thin walls that makes the stay pretty loud. Not much privacy.

We didn't get the opportunity of getting breakfast due to public holidays maybe. So struggled a bit for food and had to travel in search of restaurant.

Verified reviewGreat place for short stays. Easy check-in with key box, and the private parking at the back of the building is perfect. It takes about 1 hour and 40 minutes to walk to the city, or 30 minutes by bike or Voi. There’s a nearby gas station with a small shop, which is perfect if you need a late-night snack or want to fill up the tank before leaving.
