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 reviewNice rooms, very clean and friendly environment.
The code to access the gate on the floor was extremely long! Like a 10 digits code may be a bit of a nuisance each time but after all it always worked.
Thank you, Sardi. We're happy to hear you felt comfortable and welcomed. As for the gate code, unfortunately, it’s a central building code, so we’re unable to change it, but we’re glad it worked smoothly for you in the end.

Verified reviewThe accommodation was easy to access using the detailed information provided. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. There were a couple of bathrooms, so i never had to wait. The free coffee pods were appreciated.
The accommodation was a little away from the centre, but the tram stopped right outside.
Thank you, Kevin. We’re glad you found everything clean and comfortable, and that the check-in information was helpful. Sorry if the location wasn’t exactly what you expected, but most landmarks are actually very easy to reach from here, either by public transport or even on foot. You're always welcome back.

Verified reviewThe kitchen is well equiped and organized, spacious and comfortable. Many bathrooms, clean and convenient.
It is really hard to contact staff, even cannot contact. We had to stay hours outside as noone picked up the phone or replied message to give me security code to go inside. After all efforts, we got the help from another guest to go inside. The situation happened again in the next 3 days. We had not get the door code until we left. The staff never reply nor say sorry.
Thank you, Tran! We’re truly sorry about the communication issues you experienced, that’s definitely not how we want any guest to feel. We always aim to respond quickly and make things smooth for everyone, so we’ll absolutely look into what went wrong in your case. There must have been an exceptional reason, and we’ll do our best to make sure it doesn’t happen again. We’re glad you enjoyed the kitchen and the shared facilities, and we’d really love to welcome you again for a much better experience next time!

Verified reviewNice and clean common spaces. Shared bathrooms enough for the number of rooms. Close to the center to reach by walking. Clear instructions to self check-in received in advance. You can easily access also public transportation and city rental bike station Free coffee and tea. Possibility to leave luggage for free before check in and after check out. I highly recommend it!
For the light sleepers it is a bit challenging since apartment it is close to a main road with tram running even in the night. Bring your earplugs!
Thank you, Paolo! We’re really happy to hear you appreciated the clear check-in process, the shared spaces, and all the little extras like coffee, tea, and luggage drop-off. You're absolutely right, the location is super central, which is great for exploring, but can come with a bit of nighttime tram action. Earplugs are definitely a good idea for light sleepers! Thanks again for the thoughtful review, hope to welcome you back one day!

Verified reviewWe loved our stay at Gellerico! Our bedroom was quiet and cosy, and the bathrooms and kitchen were extremely clean, bright, and welcoming. Well located, with great bars within walking distance, and genuinely one of the best bakeries I've ever been to directly opposite as an added bonus.
Thank you, Muller-Heyndyk! We’re so happy you loved your stay with us! And yes, that bakery across the street really is something special! We’re big fans too :) It’s great to hear the peaceful room and bright shared spaces made you feel at home, and that you enjoyed the neighborhood vibes. We’d love to have you back anytime!

Verified reviewExcellent location on a convenient tramline. Felt safe and surprisingly comfortable despite the older building and communal set-up. Thanks to the staff for recommendations around Budapest and making the accommodation welcoming. The coffee machine also went a long way in making it feel like home.
Worth noting that it's a noisy location, though I adjusted to the trams very quickly. Most guests were quiet and considerate.
Thank you, Evan. We’re really happy to hear that you felt comfortable and at ease during your stay, even with the quirks of an older building and a lively location. We do our best to emphasize the importance of quiet hours so everyone can enjoy a peaceful stay. Thanks also for highlighting the atmosphere and our team’s local tips, we're always glad to help. We’d love to have you back anytime!

Verified reviewThe location and price are really unbeatable. Staff were helpful and responsive. The room had everything you needed, which is rarely the case with these types of accommodations.
The accommodation was more communal and hostel-style than I had expected. This wasn’t too big of a deal for me, but wouldn’t be a fit for everyone. My room was also quite loud, facing the Main Street and with constant traffic, and next to the kitchen.

Verified reviewSuper location, very clean, everything that you need is in there. Big kitchen, comfy showers. Feels like home.
In summer was very hot, doesn't have air conditioning (only fan was in the room) In our room there was broken curtain and we couldn't close the window properly at night. But these little minuses are really not so important, everything else was great!
