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.).

Our sink in the room was clogged and full of brown water and some type of debris. Unable to use

Verified reviewThe room I was originally assigned had water all over the bathroom floor, and the ceiling light was leaking. I tried to call the front desk on the phone in the bathroom, but it did not work. I had to use the phone by the bed. I packed up all my things and went back downstairs to be given a new room and an apology. I was also given breakfast passes for the inconvenience, which was nice.
Dear Audrey, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m truly sorry to hear about the condition of your original room and the inconvenience it caused. A leaking ceiling and water on the bathroom floor are certainly not the experience we aim to provide, and I understand how frustrating it must have been, especially with the added difficulty of the non-working bathroom phone. I’m glad our team was able to promptly relocate you and extend a gesture of apology with breakfast vouchers, but please know we are actively addressing the maintenance concerns you encountered to ensure they are fully resolved. Your experience is not reflective of our standards, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to do better. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide a much smoother and more comfortable stay in the future.

Verified reviewSuper convenient location to UD campus. Breakfast was ordering from a counter, super yummy along with my Starbucks Chai Latte. Beds were comfy, room was clean.
We specifically booked here as they listed an indoor pool which was sadly closed (and apparently about to be renovated into a large gym). My daughter was devastated as she had been looking forward to swimming all day - super let down.
Katherine, Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Please stay tuned for our new fitness facility!
