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 reviewI liked the location in the heart of the city, the size of the room, the architecture.
Many things could have been better. In order to access the room, especially at night, when the reception closes, you have to enter two 8 digits codes that you receive at check in, one for the building and one for the room. We had a problem with the access code to the building at 10:30 PM with a child who needed a bathroom. The code did not work so I have called customer support who gave me another code, maybe the master since the building remained unlocked after we got in. The customer support person reminded me that her work schedule has ended. Second thing, we were there during the weekend. Friday and Saturday we couldn't sleep since there is a outdoor disco nearby. The music was so loud that you could still hear it with the windows closed (our room had a street view). We were not informed about that. From the reception they told me that they could not do anything since that disco is authorized by the mayor of Sighisoara. Moreover, when trying to close the bathroom window, the curtain rod fell on my husband head. The customer support said that my husband stepped on the curtain and that is why the rod fell. Very disturbing attitude of the stuff. I have never encountered this in any of my many journeys in Romania and outside my country.

Verified reviewPlenty of room, spacey. Comfortable beds. The location is excellent, close to the castle.
We were 3 indicated, but the bed was only prepared for 2, had to look for the extra sheets ... In case of floor carpet, stg. would need under dirty muddy shoes.

Verified reviewThe room is very clean, and the sheets and towels are fresh. The location is excellent, and the building is charmingly old. The staff is polite.
Although the room was located on the top floor, it was surprisingly noisy — sounds from neighboring rooms were clearly audible, and the floors creaked with every step. Most disappointing, however, was that despite booking a deluxe room, I was given a standard one. It lacked the promised city view and king-sized bed, and instead had a very small bed. When I brought this to the attention of the staff, they refused to acknowledge the error. Additionally, the air conditioner dripped continuously whenever it was turned on.

Verified reviewExcellent location, and lovely old hotel with a traditional feel.
There was nowhere to eat or drink in the hotel; granted, there are cafes close at hand, but it would have been nice to have some facilities in the hotel itself.
