Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Saudi Arabia1- There was only one thing I did not like about the place, and that was the presence of a person named Akmal. He says he is the general manager. He speaks in a very loud voice. His loud voice woke me up more than once. He also enters the rooms suddenly and disturbs those who are sleeping. He uses the electronic shisha in the sitting area. I told him it is forbidden, so he says it is allowed and he also enters the room. Rooms and in a loud voice, as if we were in a prison, he would say to the visitors, “Do you want to go out or extend the extension?” in a very loud voice. He calls the worker Razan in a very loud voice that we can hear while we are inside the room 2- they charge me for Parking my car 35 UED
Close to the beach and the main Marina I liked the smell of the place very wonderful, and the workers in the place are Raza and another girl whose name I do not know, and also the owner of the place, Valentina, she care on every space and details of the hostel, as it is wonderful with all the details, the bed is very comfortable, the bathrooms are very clean, the kitchen is equipped with everything, and there is a wonderful balcony. really i like place

United States of AmericaMy stay at Alphatel Hostel in JBR was truly exceptional. The interiors exuded classic elegance, and the flat screen in the living room was a fantastic addition, perfect for watching movies and even playing PlayStation. The chandelier in the common area added a touch of beauty and sophistication. I'd like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the staff and management for their outstanding management of the hostel. Everything was impeccably coordinated and beautifully presented, enhancing the overall experience. The hostel attracted a diverse crowd of business executives and beautiful individuals, creating a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. It's undoubtedly a great place to stay if you're looking to connect with like-minded people without any discrimination. The gym facilities were a highlight for me, and taking a leisurely stroll along JBR at night was a delightful way to explore the area. Overall, my stay at Alphatel Hostel was nothing short of fantastic, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in JBR.

GreenlandI enjoyed my time there; it's incredibly clean and budget-friendly. The beach is just a stone's throw away, and the pleasant warm weather adds to the charm of the trip. Make sure to contact the owner Mr. Amr to guide you the place for the first time. I liked how the building is designed like a maze :D

Japantoo cold with strong air conditioning in bed room. if you have upper and next to it, you need to be ready to have warm clothes. long term travelers are occupying some spaces with their goods in the room and bath rooms. it’s better to provide detailed direction for the entrance or tips for coming from airport. bed’s mattress was a bit hard. shoes box is smelly and too small, so my shoes was squashed.
good location, comfy to stay, and good place to meet new friends. the owners and workers are nice and friendly. you can have an experience of staying at high towered mansion with great views. 10min walk to Tram and 18min to Metro.
