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 KingdomThe apartment is finished to a high standard and is very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. The apartment is modern well insulated and warm. It is a short distance to attractions and shopping and there is a parking space. A minor issue with the washing machine was handled well by the owners. All in all it's a great place to stay.

United KingdomEverything. It was super clean, comfortable (the beds were great!), plenty single beds (perfect for a wee group) tugged in a back street but right in the town center, warm, awesome showers with plenty hot water, well kitted kitchen, and the wee boiler room was such a bonus for drying wet coats and towels. This time only one of the apartments in the building was available but if you have a bigger group and manage to find availability the place would be perfect for a bigger group. Brilliant accommodation!

United KingdomNothing I didn't like or could suggest improving on, in fact one of the most important things for us is when there is an issue how is it resolved and and when we contacted the Host (over an appliance issue) they responded very quickly and where happy to make sure we had everything we need. Cant fault that, it was an excellent stay.
Great location, clean, tidy and very comfortable apartment, close to all local amenities. Great for families, two large supermarkets nearby and it was nice to have a parking space outside the front door. Its our second visit to this apartment and we would absolutely look to book and stay there again.

United KingdomWe had difficulty with the lock to the apartment and the bathroom door. One of us got stuck in the bathroom but we managed to open it from the outside with a spoon. Also the building was difficult to find from the details given and the aerial photo sent was too blurry to make out. We asked a postman and he had never heard of it either.
Beautiful apartment, perfect for us. Lovely view of trees from the window. Nice and warm.
