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 reviewWe know it. We dont mind slumming it if its clean and quiet. We know the area so great for me and my friend.
Its ok but we realised its not that clean. Light switches were filthy and you can smell cat pee the moment you walk in. I can look past that though and would stay again.

Verified reviewBed was descent, AC was stuck on high level but worked fine., they didn’t tell me that it leaks to the floor.
Fair location! The liquor store which are few and far between is only about 12 min walk away. The bud station and major taxi hub is about 6 min walk. Very easy.

Verified reviewVery authentic & beautiful accommodation. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious and the staff was super friendly, communicative and helpful when I needed help with taxi/money exchange/etc.
The room allocation was a bit difficult and the facilities were rather minimalistic, you might have to expect cockroaches. But for a a short stay it’s good!

Verified reviewNice pretty Riad. Great roof top overlooking river towards Sale.

Verified reviewIts a bit shabby but its clean, quiet during the night and in heart of real morrocco which we like but others may not. There is a coat stand that doubles as a wardrobe but we dont mind things like that others may not be happy with that. The main square is a 30 mins walk but a stop at chez hicham for a juice on route is great we did the same on the way back too it was a daily routine. Traffic outside riad is mad but you get used to it and just crack on. We would go back again it was our 3rd time staying there it suits us but if you want luxery its not the place to go.
It was a little noisier at night this time but it did go quiet for a good nights sleep.

Verified reviewLocation was fine
Old and dusty room. Bed linen was gross (not a proper duvet, just a dirty blanket/throw used). The smell from the drains was so bad that it woke me up in the middle of the night. They offered a taxi service from airport but when I asked them about it and gave them a time and place, they ignored it. I only heard back today and I have been home from my trip for 3 days so obviously that is too late. Staff were unfriendly

Verified reviewLocation was great. Room size OK (I was a single traveller). Shower OK and did have hot water, all en-suit.
Could be difficult to find. I had a taxi from airport so was taken to accommodation otherwise maybe not so easy to find.

Verified reviewI had a very disappointing experience. The staff was incredibly rude and unprofessional, showing no interest in helping or even treating customers with basic courtesy. The customer service was terrible—slow responses, no willingness to resolve issues, and an overall lack of care. On top of that, the facilities were in poor condition: dirty, poorly maintained, and far from what was advertised. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone looking for quality service or a decent environment.
I recommend for you luxury
