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 StatesStaff became very cold to me when I asked to leave my backpack at reception for a few hours after checkout. he said no so I asked can I pay a little. He said I would have to pay close to the amount of a whole night stay.(I took my backpack to another hotel and they charge me 1/6 of his price.)Then in the morning he text me telling me I need to check out exactly at 12, no later. (This whole time he had a very unfriendly attitude) Loud music at night coming from nearby(this was on a Tuesday night)
Air con is very strong and adjustable with remote Affordable

United StatesBathroom needs a deep cleaning. Not handicapped accessible. The description said handicapped facilities. From the street to the ground floor was 2 sets of a few stairs. Then it is on the second floor with no elevator. No big deal but the description falsely says handicapped and it wasn't. Description also says terrace, there is none. Cash only, foreign currency. All of these are minor, I honestly give it a 9/10 for a $9 USD a night hotel
Middle floor of a building with a view, but the trees in front of the window needs minor trimming. Location was excellent. 4 block walk to busy late night streets, Haram (spinney supermarket and Exception bakery) and King Faisal St (fast food). Also, filtered water in the kitchen. Overall a great value for the price range. THIS IS THE AREA YOU WANT TO BE IN AT THE PYRAMIDS! THE HOTELS NEAR THE SPHINX ARE IN A DEAD AREA. To be clear, there are 2 areas with cheap hotels near the pyramids; near Marriott Mena and near the sphinx.

EgyptBreakfast, breakfast, and breakfast, please. No catring for food or drinks. Gotta depend on yourself when you are hungry or thirsty. The noise of the DJ from the neighboring hotel can prevent you from sleeping as the banging shakes your pillow.
The super friendly staff, Mohab in particular. Very close to Street where you can find almost everything you need. Some shops are open 24-7. The hostel is very safe and secure. Wifi is available and seldom crashes or slows down.

JapanI don't have anything to comment as everything was perfect
The location is 1 minute drive to the pyramids and close to many good restaurant, which makes it in a wonderful location. The staff is great. Me and my wife have no words to describe the care and level of professionality that Sheriff have. Always ready and always available to give us insight and support us on anything we need. The level of professionality is beyond 5 start hotel. Me and my wife felt like at home and safe. The service they provide is tailor on every single customer and provide 100% of the attention day and night.

EgyptNothing major, really!
The location is great and easily accessible from most available public transport, and very close to the Giza Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum.. The staff was extremely helpful and supportive.. They managed things extremely smoothly and they were very friendly to me.. The room was very clean and they provided towels and soap, which is not a common finding for this price.. Excellent value for money... Everything went really well this time, far beyond my expectations!
