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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomBreakfast was ok but nothing exceptional
Nice place - not right in the centre but still it has a good position, We had a room at the front with a seating area and windows out on to the street. Slight trade off with street noise/Music from the shop opposite for the light and balcony but with the windows closed the noise was ok. Very helpful staff including Empanada the cat who was really in charge

United StatesI didn't like that I couldn't catnap Empanada.
First off, the staff were all super helpful and booked a couple of day trips for me. They don't have a tourist agency there so the staff was able to find something for me cheaper than I could on my own. And the trips were great! Now, any review would be incomplete without a mention of Empanada. She is the best cat in Ecuador (undisputed) but also quite possibly the entirety of South America. I love her. Also the rooms are very clean and comfortable! But....Empanada. She is everything.

FranceNo major point. Just there are two lovely friendly cats. I'm allergic it has been a little issue once one came to say hi. Nothing to complain about the place
A really nice hotel well located in the center. The place is quiet and is a nice location to rest in Cuenca near the Cathedral, the artists street and floral marketl. The personal is kind, available and really helpful. Bars and restaurants are at walking distance. The breasfast is delicious. Our room was cosy and clean next to a bright resting area. You have everything to enjoy a good stay in Cuenca definitely a family place to stay

EcuadorThe location was perfect, very central to the old town. Really lovely interior and design, warm and clean with a beautiful inner patio, the rooms are kind of in a little village almost with cute windows, the room was very comfortable and the bed was so soft and perfect. Delicious breakfast with lots of options, the staff are friendly and so helpful. Highlight has to be the three cats, especially chunky empanada <3
