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 location is the only thing going for it, the view from the balcony was nice although its so small you couldnt put a chair on it
Where to start. Wifi did not work, rooms felt like they were cleaned with dirty water. The room keys were dangerous having to lock yourself in each time (also only one key supplied) and I had a cockroach appear on my vanity. Friends in another rooms aircon did not work, after two days they switched rooms only to have belonging taken from their room.

Verified reviewThe location is amazing
I stayed in a single room with sea view, but the balcony only fit the air conditioner :( Also on the first morning I had a cockroach standing half dead in my floor, and had to ask twice the staff to remove it, because they din’t understand the need to do it. I asked for a different room and they allow it, but Inneeded to check out and check in again on the same day.

Verified reviewOur Room was lovely and spacious with a balcony overlooking St. Julians Bay. Location was excellent. Our Hotel was across the road from the beach. Breakfast was ok there could have been more selection of fresh fruit.
Noise from the traffic outside was noisy at night.

Verified reviewThe double deluxe rooms were lovely with a great sea view balcony. However the triple room was extremely dark with no balcony or terrace.
The shower glass doors came off the rollers & my husband s add most got scalded very badly. We reported it to staff however it wasn’t fixed for 2 & half days & was extremely dangerous as the glass doors could have actually fallen off.

If you want to be close to good beaches it's far, but this, we knew it, the problem is the room, veryy poor equipments, very bad smell of humidity, very very small bathroom. It doesn't worth it

The bathroom. Shower was too small and it was either too hot or too cold. Toilet so close to the sink that you had to sit sideways. The breakfast buffet wasn't very good but it was convenient not to have to find somewhere else In spite of the above it was still a brilliant room

Verified reviewWell located. Inexpensive. Helpful staff.
Some guests returning in the middle of the night (or early morning) were very rowdy & noisy - shouting and slamming doors etc. Staff generally managed to control the situation quickly but a good night of sleep was difficult.
