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 KingdomAbsolutely nothing that I disliked.
I had a truly wonderful stay at Martin's apartment, and was completely satisfied with everything. The whole upper floor was neat and clean and well designed, the bedroom is spacious, and the bed was super comfortable, there is also a convenient desk and chair in the bedroom itself. Martin the host is a incredibly kind and friendly person, and I'm truly glad I picked this place for my 5 nights stay in London. Martin always communicated very well, and gave clear instructions for everything. As soon as I checked-in I straight away felt like at home, I especially appreciated the sense of privacy of knowing that the upper floor is for exclusive use for the guest booking it, + there is also a lock on the bedroom for added privacy, and of course the bathroom and kitchen on the upper floor is private, which although it's technically not a entire apartment for yourself, but rather the exclusive use of the upper floor at Martin's home while he is residing on the ground floor, but in fact it really felt like I had stayed at a entire private flat for myself.

United KingdomAs I arrived at around 23:00 parking was limited but one day I was working from home/this property I noticed in the day there are plenty. The layout of the space is a little different from how I thought but as mentioned above there is a lock for your bedroom for extra privacy, and I’m 100% sure Martin would never come upstairs unannounced and break that boundary. I was working from home one day and there wasn’t a desk, there is a pop-out table in the kitchen which could definitely be used but didn’t suit me at the time. I noticed the fridge and freezer weren’t working as well as it could have - I’m sure if I messaged Martin he would have sorted this without hesitation.
Even before I arrived the communication was excellent as I was due to check in at around 23:00 which Martin said was absolutely fine (he lives downstairs in a separate locked space) he was very attentive from when I first arrived, giving me privacy and space after showing around the space I had - and sending me a message to check I was happy with everything. The bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen were so clean and organised, it really did have everything you needed, he even had a phone charger with different adapters to suit your devices. The blind in the bedroom was a very good blackout allowing me to have a really restful night's sleep, in a lockable room for that extra layer of security. Comfortable bed, bathroom, and bedrooms are huge with plenty of space. It was lovely and warm! The area is great for restaurants and shops - a shopping center is about 15 min walk from the property with a takeaway and corner shop about 20 houses away. It was a lovely and quiet neighborhood with free residential parking.

United StatesWe are sensitive to perfumes so simply placed an air freshener in a plastic bag replacing it when we left. Otherwise this place offered great value. Note that unit is up a flight of narrow steps. Not for anyone with mobility issues. Also bed is very firm (which we liked)
Loved how quiet it was on a side street. Window in bedroom opened for fresh air. It was located very close to a bus stop. If we chose to walk to The Tube it was a mere 15 minute walk. Kitchenette is small but we didn't need a lot of space to eat our breakfast before heading out for the day. Martin, our host, was incredibly friendly and helpful to us with suggestions and information to maximize our time in London and finding our way to surrounding areas.

United KingdomI go to London very often for work or just to spend a weekend so I'm a regular customer of Airbnb or Booking.com... I must admit that this time I was really happy with the choice of the room. You have an entire floor of the house with a spacious room, a bathroom that is also spacious and a small kitchen with all the accessories you need! Super provided! Martin was spectacular with us, from our arrival until our departure, very helpful and very kind. My fiancée forgot an item in the room and he was super helpful and sent it back to us in Manchester! An absolute legend! Great room price for the area and perfect cleanliness of the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen. Free parking right outside the house. We will be back for sure at Martin's 🙂

Saudi ArabiaIn general, I really didn’t notice any thing unpleasant to report although some people say the location is not the ideal ones. However, if you are looking to explore London, I would recommend you to find another location because this place is far south London and it will cost you money to reach the centre of London.
It was clean and comfortable to stay in
