Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

A very clean, comfortable and well-furnished apartment that exceeded our expectations. The A/C units were in good working condition. We also found the location to be very convenient and secure. The off-street parking was also nice. I would recommend this apartment to others. Definitely good value for money for a group of 3-4 people.

The cold water tap in the kitchen was terribly hard to turn off. Tap needs a new washer. Tv remote was intermittent. May need new batteries. Towel rack in bathroom was loose and came away from the wall. The location of the unit at the back of the building needs much clearer directions as well as number, name of apartment and street number clearly shown outside the building.
We really liked the spaciousness and well appointed kitchen. Linen was lovely too.

Apartment did not have wifi. Very disappointing and made it difficult to make our onward travel arrangements and contact owner. On a personal note I prefer white bed linen.
Location was great. Right in the centre of town which was what we wanted. Felt part of the town. Nice old building with wooden floors and high ceilings. We stayed in July which is cold in evening and morning and appreciated heating in apartment.

we loved the property. The only inconvenience was that we were given the incorrect code to get in, new batteries in the A/C were required and there was only 1 wineglass.
Excellent location and com for table.

Not really a problem, but some of the floor boards are very noisy! The apartment is on second floor if steps are an issue.
Lovely light-filled apartment downtown, convenient to shops and hotels, with a partial view of the Line of Lode. It is in an old building with high ceilings and has been sensitively renovated, keeping touches like the terrazzo bathroom. Very comfortable and clean.

Location and parking was terrific, many of the sights are within an easy walking distance,the place itself is very roomy and the airconditioning works well on those hot occasions.Host was friendly and gave us terrific advice.In fact everyone we met at Broken Hill was friendly.

It was difficult to access. There were 16 very steep steps from a back entrance which was hard to find and not safe to park in overnight. We are elderly and it was very difficult carrying luggage up and down the steps. There was no way to use the dishwasher-no cleaning agent, no tea towel or sponge for washing up.
The location was good. And it was light and airy

Stairs..if you were “old” or had a mobility problem you would find the stairs almost impossible to climb as they were vey steep. In the kitchen, the dishwasher was held together with a plastic strap and there was a gaping hole where the exhaust fan would go. The floors were wooden and very loose and therefore when you walked, the noise was very loud. The unit needed a spruce up as it was very “used” and rundown. The owners didn’t contact me the 24 hours before with the key code and therefore I had to call them( through the tenant of the downstairs) for it.
The location was good
