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 property is reasonably close to the centre of town - about a 5 minute walk from the main restaurants. It is a bit dark walking home alone.
The rooms are very sparse without a fan or much bedding, which made it quite hot.

Verified reviewExceeded expectations. Great value for the price. Right across the street from the lake and next to a small reserve. Very quiet. Incredibly friendly family runs it. I will definitely come again and I wish them all the best with their business!

Verified reviewThe view is perfect on the upper levels. The terrace has an amazing view. It's at the end of the main street but only a short walk to the centre. Easy to escape the noise when needed.

Verified reviewRoom is okay with private bathroom and table, also a hammock and table on the balcony in front. A small kitchen for common use.
It’s a little noisy. Thin(ish) walls and loud noises from street/ lake, that eventually stops later at night though.

Verified reviewGreat location, very friendly staff. Right on the lake, amazing view. Room had a nice queen-size bed which is a nice surprise for places I've stayed in similar price ranges. Definitely can recommend!
No complimentary coffee which is usually a minimum at places I've stayed.

Verified reviewThe location was amazing, but you do need to have the balcony with lake view, at least on the second floor. It is a family business, and they are all so kind and helped us with everything. Small kitchen with really only the basics, but it was enough for us
A few electrical wires were loose in the shower

Quite noisy on the weekend even if the hotel is located the end of the street.

Verified reviewThe owner was very kind and always available on WhatsApp. He responded quickly to any requests and made sure we had a great stay.
The hotel is located in the second row from the waterfront. The pictures can be a bit misleading. While you can reach the water from the street, there are only large rocks and no proper beach area to relax or lay down.
