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 reviewAmazing value for the money. It’s basically an apartment with balcony area in a quiet courtyard. The room is so beautifully decorated with foam mattress, kitchen sink, kettle, fridge, safe, slipper, bathrobe, free tea, coffee, even coke, milk and muesli. You check in at nearby cafe. However, the owner is not on site so it’s really like Airbnb. So the package I sent to myself was supposedly delivered to the hotel address but no one knows and forever lost. I should have communicated with the owner beforehand.
“Apartment” is more like it than “hotel”

Verified reviewThe room was comfy and clean with updated amenities and a comfy bed. A daily cleaning service. Complementary minibar items (soda, cereals, milk). Nice patio to sit outside. nicely located near coffee shops and restaurants.
No air conditioning. The windows are facing the patio which serves the passage for newgbor building. Check-in and check-out take place at the neighboring cafe. Unfortunately, the key fob didn't work once when I came back to the unit late at night. Luckily, the staff at the restaurant nearby were still there, and they could provide me with an actual key. All of these minimally affected the experience, and overall, it was a pleasant stay.

Verified reviewThe room was comfortable and clean and the location was excellent for the purpose of our visit.
This is not a hotel, it is just a room in a residential area. The staff in the restaurant in front of the room who do the check in are not welcoming because they are not connected to the room - they just do the check in for the owner. If you need anything - for example one day we were not left any breakfast - you need to email the owner and wait for a reply.

Verified reviewNice decoration ! Nice to have water and small breakfast
No smart TV. For non-German it is pointless. Netflix would have been nice

Verified reviewI didn’t eat breakfast but had coffee at the cafe which was excellent.
I didn’t ask about being able to leave luggage after checkout but it is always useful as our flight wasn’t until 9.30 pm and so we still wanted to explore the beautiful city of Hamburg.

Verified reviewSmall room but space is Very well organized and tasteful.
Cleaning staff did not provide some important items, such as sponges to keep kitchen and bathroom counters clean, and to wash dishes. Also we almost ran out of sugar in kitchen.
