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 reviewProperty is well located at the heart of the old part of the city and quite affordable.
My room wasn’t clean and also wasn’t properly ventilated. I have seen bugs in my room. Mattresses felt quite hard to sleep on (although this appears to be common for many places in the country). Property was well located but sometimes felt a bit unsafe - many people are approaching tourists right before the entrance to the hotel and ask for money.

Verified reviewIts a beautiful Riad. Tea on arrival, lovely rooms. Good shower and clean.
There was only one thing we didn't like. The noise on the road outside. Its not a main road, but whats looks like a quiet medina road, but there were motorbikes all night. We would have had the perfect sleep if it wasn't for this.

Verified reviewGood location right on one of the busy streets of the old town. Very beautiful house, but with very narrow staircase. Rooftop terrace is nice to have.
The bathroom is quite old and also a bit cramped, but it works in the end.

Verified reviewLovely old house in a convenient location in the Medina. Gives a real feel for life in the Medina as it used to be. Great rooftop terrace. Good breakfast. Staff really helpful with advice and arranging trips.. Gives a more authentic visit to Fes than one of the bigger hotels.
Quite noisy being on a main street but quietens down later in the evening

Verified reviewI’ve been welcomed very nicely by soufian. We had some tea, also called „Moroccan whiskey“ and he gave me some good advice on where to go and what to do. The riad was amazing, and the Breakfast that was included was also very tasty - brought by a very friendly lady. I’ve spent a lot of time on my favorite place - the roof terrace - with the turtles. Thanks, I’ll come again when I’m in Fès.

Verified reviewIn my six weeks of travelling Morocco, this was one of the most beautiful places I had a chance to stay in. Actually this place only made me stay in the city of Fes longer than I originally planned. Location is very convenient, rooms are clean and comfortable and family who runs it is just lovely. They all speak good English and are very helpful. If I ever came back to Fes, I would definitely stay here again. :)
Nothing comes to mind :)

Verified reviewI loved everything about my stay. The beautiful Riad is perfectly located in the old Medina, easy to find on the main road close to the Blue Gate. The room was nice, clean and calm. The breakfast was really good and I enjoyed it every morning on the wonderful rooftop (with two super cute little turtles). What really stood out was the incredible hospitality. Hatim and his family are amazing. Absolutely kind, welcoming, caring and helpful with everything. I had a problem with my credit card and they were so supportive and solution-oriented. I highly recommend staying there. Thank you for everything.

Verified reviewPerfect place to immerse yourself in the authentic Fes style at this enchanting place, where meticulously detailed tiled walls and painted timber accents abound. Run by a welcoming family, they graciously accommodated our breakfast times to suit our schedule on a couple of occasions during our stay. We enjoying breakfast on the terrace, accompanied by the presence of two charming tortoises. Location is perfect to explore the city.
Common spaces and the room are a bit dark, but it's part of the charm and you can always turn on the lights! Breakfast could improve with the addition of some cheese or boiled eggs and coffee.

Verified reviewLocation is great and easy to find when you are in the Medina. They will meet you and escort you into their property which is helpful for this Medina. They can also arrange hammam and provide escorts for this. They also provide you with WhatsApp to call in case you have problems or get lost so you don’t have to pay someone to guide you back. Customer service is very good here.
WiFi could be better in the rooms themselves. Also didn’t like the price for car, luggage, and tax was provided in Euros then converted back to dinars to pay at more then to 10 to 1 exchange which is what you get everywhere else. Feels like I overpaid. Just provide the amount in dinars next time.

Verified reviewThe staff (Omar) was so nice; helpful, friendly and polite.. Location was great: in street full of shops (called Talas Sghira) so you feel safe.. The room was big and comfy.. and bathroom is inside which is great.. It’s Ramadan so they offered me Sahour meal instead of breakfast and that was so kind..
Even the property itself was quiet, but the noise from outside was annoying.. Facilities were excellent, but it’s kinda dark, just need more lights.. and the window needs a curtain
