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 reviewNone
I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. The cleanliness was far below expectations – the rooms and common areas did not feel properly maintained. The staff was not helpful or welcoming, which made the stay even more uncomfortable. On top of that, the food quality was very poor, with limited options and nothing fresh or appealing.

We had the worst experience staying at Grand Unal. We booked two rooms and spent almost $1500 but in return they ruined our trip. The rooms were soo dirty, dark and small with dirty old carpets, broken fridge, dirty walls with algae, broken towel rail, very small shower n toilet, uncomfortable beds closed to walls, poor aircon. Outside window view was horrible.

Verified reviewThe location is not bad, about 10-12 mins walk to the tram/train station. It is fairly clean. Good furniture all around. The pool and sauna are a good addition. Even though it gets extremely busy in the evenings.
There was no bottle of water neither on arrival nor any other day. We checked in around midnight, it would be nice to have a sip of water on arrival. No kettle either. Our room had a very bad smell from the bathroom/toilet. The shower was weak. Extremely tiny lift, takes long to get to any other level. No towels in the pool. I found some members of reception having a very aggressive attitude when opting for activities outside of those offered by the hotel. "How much did you pay?" sounded like a normal question to the guests. None of them smile nor say "hello".

Verified reviewI extremely liked the ease of early check in as we arrived early and the staff was very friendly and understanding.
I would have preferred complementary water bottles, kettle in the room. The swimming pool should be open 7 days even on Monday with reduced hours for cleaning the pool.
