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 reviewSuper location
Few technical issues (the window was not closing, the bathroom ventilator did not function). It would be good to state the size of the parking discount clearly for those traveling by car (instead of 25 one pays 22.5 per day).

Verified reviewVery very friendly staff that was very accommodating and flexible. Good, tiny room, with a comfortable bed and everything you need to explore the city. Location is superb!
A bit tricky to find. Shower could be better.

Verified reviewThe private double room was great, private bathroom small but overall excellent for the price. Comfortable beds, bedding, pillows. Great location. No issues with sound either.
Not much of a vibe at all compared to other hostels but clean, organised, practical, well-located and very affordable.

Verified reviewIt was an ad hoc decision to stay in Groningen, so I appreciated the fact that we found cheap accommodation the same day. The location is great, right next to the city center, there are bars and restaurants all around. Checking in and out was fast and unproblematic, staff were nice.
The facilities were really basic, and I am not a demanding person. The bathroom is basically a barely ventilated plastic box, the sink was filling immediately as soon as I opened the tap. The shabby bunk bed was screaching and shaking every time my husband turned around, so don't put anyone heavy onto the top :)

Verified reviewFriendly staff and very good location in the inner city near a major bus station, where the bus to Lauwersoog is departing. Many restaurants, bars and shops around, as well as a big supermarket nearby.
We asked for a room that is accessible with a wheelchair in advance and were assured it‘s no problem, but there was a small step on the way. But to be fair: we just mentioned it at the end of the stay, because we were staying there for just one night and were quite exhausted when we arrived. The barrierfree way at the back of the hotel was often blocked by parked cars of other guests.

Verified reviewPersonnel was amazing ! They save the place. Everything was very clean, good location.
The bathroom was extremely small and the matrasses were so thin I could feel the springs of the bed. It was pretty noisy, both guests and outside.

Verified reviewThe location was convenient, close to the city center, and the room was adequately sized for three people. Breakfast was satisfactory. We also visited the hotel’s bar-restaurant in the evening, which had a pleasant space, polite staff, and decent drinks.
The room's cleanliness was quite basic and felt minimal. The beds were also uncomfortable, metal-framed and creaky, more like folding beds than proper ones, which made sleeping difficult.

Verified reviewGood Location. Staff is very nice.
Room is quite small compare to money we have spend. I think because of that week, there are many events in this town, so all the hotel is very expensive than usual.
