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.).

QatarThe pool repair work was not mentioned, nor the building work opposite. Plus the lower floors facing the street get a lot of noise from the traffic

United KingdomIt was a shame the swimming pool wasn’t open as that would have been great for our children. It did state on the website it would be closed in fairness. Some of the pillows on the bed were a little hard but they would be the only faults and they are minor.
The location was brilliant - right next to the mall and central to most of the things we wanted to see. The apartment was clean, spacious and well-equipped and the staff were all lovely. Is definitely stay here again.

United States*Wish certain things could remain in kitchen/house for guests to use (just the essentials): olive oil, salt, etc., detergent, and there was no coffee maker. (I bought two large cups from Java the night before and heated them on stove top in the morning.)
Extremely spacious, really kind and helpful staff.

Australiavery little. Out of the property's control, but the street noise could be pretty bad at times - there seemed to be buses that would honk regularly to get passengers attention in the middle of the night. It mostly didn't bother me but would wake my girlfriend through the night.
One of those gems - comfortable bed, plenty of space, nice couch and table space. Barely anything to complain about, even if we were looking to complain. Location was great - near lots of great things, and having the mall connected to the building. Staff were super friendly and helpful.

United KingdomWe couldn't not use the Pool has it was under maintenance. we were infirmed by email 3 weeks to our arrival and we were hoping for compensations for this but we didn't get.
This was my second time in Yaya, i and felt safe and welcome. The hospitality of the staffs is first class. i felt safe as visitors ID were checked and recorded, even when an unexpected guest tries to come in, the hotels calls first to verify, which is great. All the staffs knew me and my team by name against our room number which feels like they knew us personally.

The ambience and comfort of the hotel. It's centrally located and close to shopping areas. Easy access to and from the airport. The staff are great, and the swimming pool is relaxing even when you can't swim. A great place to recuperate.
