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.).

AustraliaI thought when you booked a house and rooms, with shared bathroom, it would be just your family sharing the facilities. It was disconcerting to find someone else's toiletries in the bathroom. Dishes on the sink, although clean. Although there weren't any problems, perhaps in future descriptions of facilities, it should be noted that other unkown guests may be present in the home.
The home was lovely and clean, very secure.comfy beds.

AustraliaThe bathroom and toilet area could be a little cleaner, but I was still very comfortable to use the facilities. Needs to have hand towels and tea towels where they are easier to find, as I had to go searching around the house for some. Having Netflix available , would add to the experience, but obviously not necessary.
A very nice property on a quiet street. Beds were very comfortable, newly renovated kitchen, coffee machine, and massage chair. The couches were very comfy to sit on as well.

ChileThe toilet and shower weren't really clean, the toilet was really smelly. The room is a little bit small and without space for putting the bags, but it was okay anyway.
Really close to the airport, the massage chair was a good extra, the bed was great, and all the privacy and system was really good. We felt safe. The common areas are big and clean.

AustraliaBooked for two adults since the unit was advertised as having three beds but when we arrived the owner told us he had locked two of the three bedrooms and would require us to pay an extra $100 per night per room to have them unlocked. A couple cockroaches seen in the kitchen and several long black hairs around the sink. The bed was quite firm and only had one thin duvet with no additional blankets or pillows available. The unit is at the back end of the property, while a house at the front appears to be also a shared rental with a smoking area in the front yard, which generally had people present and smoking most of the time, as well as a dog that hung around the driveway when the owner(?) was out smoking. In general the whole situation was a bit uncomfortable for us so we ended up sleeping elsewhere for the last two nights of our stay.
The unit appeared modern and stylish, and for the most part was clean.
