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.).

United StatesStaff was not helpful. I am not used to taking off shoes out side the room. So I did carry some beach sand with my shoes. I asked them to clean, the lady at reception said no one was available and she dropped broom outside by the door. When I came back I had to broom the room.
Room was good size it was clean

Romania- very high humidity in the room, the walls were literally "sweating". There was a mold smell that could still be felt despite the agressive and cheap air freshener, which made the air in the room unbreathable -the room had no windows (only the bathroom had a small window) and was very small - the bed and pillows were not very comfortable - between 9 am- 6 pm there are workers making a lot of noise, as the hotel is still under construction - location not great
- very friendly and supportive staff (they welcomed us with a drink and booked the speedboat transfer back to the airport; as our speedboat left in the eveninig, after checkout they stored our luggages and allowed us to use the shower before we left to the airport). - pretty nice room, modern design - better breakfast options compared to a similar hotel we've been accomodated in on the same island

Oman1) Breakfast to be improved. 2) Transportation fees between Male Airport and the hotel to be revised as it's much higher then the operator used it self while there is no special services. Operator boat, operator staff, operator schedules. (actual 15 USD - Charged 25 USD by the hotel).
1) Friendly staff and manager. 2) Quite place to rest. 3) Snorkeling gear available for their customers with no additional charges. 4) AC works well. 5) Water pressure very good.

AlbaniaI would like to give a suggestion rather than calling it a dislike of something! Breakfast, if possible should have a little more options. Also the works that were being carried out for reconstruction, if it is possible to stop during the lunch break, so that you have the opportunity to relax a little, since the loud noises did not allow you to relax. But i hope these works will be finished soon and everything will be perfect at Arora View.
All the staff are wonderful! At any moment they make you feel comfortable as in your home. They come and wait for you at the boat and help you with your luggage, also acompany you with your luggage back to the boat. All for girls from Nepal who work at the recepsion and not only are adorable. They always make you feel welcome, respected, appreciated. They organized a special surprise for my birthday, decorated the room, take care of every detail. They deserve a huge applause, many thanks and a big hug from me. Many thanks to Asmita, Kabita, Apekshya, Shabnam! I can't leave without mentioning the chef Mahaj who was very friendly and professional with us, he cooked very delicious dishes and surprised me with a cake for my birtdhay. Also, the gentleman who helped us with the heavy luggage deserves a big thank you, he was very kind and friendly. A huge thank you to all of you!

SloveniaThe sound isolation of the rooms is quite bad. We had room just above the dining place and reception and could always hear people having dinner and breakfast preparation early in the morning. Could also hear the Tv and guests talking in other rooms and also the constant construction going on in the hotel all day that started around 8am every day.
Nice clean hotel, very kind staff. Drinking water available, also coffee and tea in room. Rooms also have AC and adapters. Nice location, close to port.

I liked that the admin was very responsive to queries before arrival, which was extremely helpful. The place was clean and located centrally on the island. The staff was nice, polite, and helpful. Pick-up and drop-off at the boat station were very helpful.
