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):
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.).

GermanyThere was nothing to complain about :)
Although we arrived very late, the host was super nice receiving us and additionally had a really nice music choice :) the breakfast together with the view on the terrace were really enjoyable and the whole living room area is very comfy as well as our room which was the smallest, but very cozy!. We could even store our luggage until the evening at the day of our departure.

SloveniaThere were a few harmless to humans tree bugs in the room. Not critical, but for someone may cause discomfort.
It's a charming beautiful place. Very responsive staff. We stayed one night in a private room. The room and common areas were clean and warm. The wifi worked well. Simple but delicious breakfast with a great view. Close to a large park, shopping center, bus stops. We walked to the center via the promenade and bridge (about 3 km). The room and services fully correspond to the description and photos.

CanadaWe couldn't get the heating function to work well on the A/C. A communal kettle in the lounge would be good too. Lights could be brighter and having a personal lamp in the nook. Having access to a communal mini cooking station or a microwave would be a bonus.
We liked the view. The room was small but cosy. Access to the sauna was appreciated. Appreciate that we can leave our luggage for when we return.

United KingdomNo problems at all with Arka Barka but useful info is that it's easy to find the hostel but don't rely on Google map's directions (a problem with all Google maps in Belgrade it seems). It's not easy to get taxis to pick up there using taxi apps but a nice guy from the hostel (sorry I forgot his name) saved me by booking a Pink Taxi to the airport and giving me super clear instructions how to get picked up!!
A very nice, varied breakfast with sweet and savoury options. The setting by the river is beautiful and the decor and comfort were both great! I felt relaxed and welcomed as soon as I stepped through the door.

I have travelled quite a few times this year to different countries for work and I can say that this hotel has been the most enjoyable experience of all! Taking breakfast literally perched on the river, watching the mallards and swans, set my mood for the day, and I attended my conference energised. I also had a free day at the end during which I took a sauna (included with the price) that further boosted my good feel. The staff were very helpful and accommodating and they have a 24 hours front desk. The hostel is some half an hour's walking distance to the centre, mostly a pleasant walk through the park. You can of course take a bus just outside the hostel if walking is not for you. Just a 5-minute walk away there is bus no. 72 that takes you to the airport for 1 Euro! My room was basic and overlooks the park, but there are different combinations, including a balcony facing the river. By the way, the coffee in the lobby is pretty good :)!

BelarusDidn`t quite understand the situation when we asked the receptionist if they have fried eggs for breakfast (while she was making some kind of omelet), she answered no, and after a while she served it to the men next to us. Were they vip-guests?
I have no words to describe that beautiful view we had. Hostel is located in park zone, so it is calm and quiet. 1 km away it is a public parking, good chance to have a walk.

Although not so close to city center nor the main points of interest, the location by the river makes it very special if you like this kind of atmosphere. Park and shopping mall at walking distance. Simple but good breakfast.
