How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWe really enjoyed the location of the apartment, which is very close to the main points of interest in Sarajevo. The host was exceptionally kind and welcoming; he greeted us upon arrival and had the air conditioning already turned on, creating a very pleasant atmosphere. The host also responded promptly to all our requests, which we truly appreciated. The apartment’s interior design was lovely, especially the very bright living room. There is only one air conditioning unit available, but it was enough to cool the entire apartment. At night, after a certain hour, we could comfortably sleep without the air conditioning by opening the skylight windows. Being close to a mountainous area made the nights cool enough, even though we visited Sarajevo during a heatwave. Free parking was provided right on the street in front of the building entrance, which was very convenient. Check out was also very simple, we just left the keys in the apartment and informed the host that we left.
Minor issues: In the bathroom we could not open the skylight window for air after having a shower. Probably it was us that could not see how it shall be opened, but maybe instructions should be left for the future quests. Also, we did not ask, as it was minor issue, for sure the host would clarify it. One thing I did not like, although it’s not related to the host, was the attitude of some neighbors in the building. They seemed suspicious and somewhat disturbed by the presence of tourists, and an older man even tried to complain to me about something when I was exiting the building, but I couldn’t understand what exactly he meant.

Verified reviewThe apartment is very spacious and clean. The location is fantastic, it's in a quiet neighborhood and you only need to cross a bridge and you're in the centre of Sarajevo. The hosts were very helpful and the communication was great. I'd definitely book this apartment if I go to Sarajevo again.

Verified reviewWe loved the apartment. It has everything you could need. The owner is very kind and provides everything. There were charging cables for our phone ect available and all the extras you could need in the bathroom and kitchen. We really enjoyed the view from the window right down onto the square. We spent more time in the apartment than we would normally on a short break as it was so light and airy, skylights in all rooms. Its so quiet, great sleep. Location is 10/10. Communication was brilliant and meet on arrival. We would recommend without hesitation. Loved it.

Verified reviewNesso, our host, was very communicative, helpful and very clear with the instructions. The apartment is stunning, bright, comfortable and very tastefully designed. It's located right in the heart of Sarajevo but sufficiently distanced from all the noise, so you can sleep very comfortably. All the facilities are perfect and clean, and he even has a bottle of wine waiting for you! Highly recommended place for a stay in Sarajevo!

Verified reviewThe apartment was in an excellent location, less than a 2 min walk to the old town. The view from the windows was superb over looking the river & City Hall. I rnjoyed sitting in the loungers watching yge eirld ho by. The flat was spacious, with a small but well equipped kitchen that had everything we needed. The bathroom very ckean and well appointed & there were TVs in both of the bedrooms. The flat was warm (very cold outside) and very clean. Both of us slept well on the comfortable beds.
The shower head could have been mounted on the wall a little higher to get our heads under it.

Verified reviewAmazing location and kind host! The apartment was big enough for 4 adults, had all necessary amenities and had a perfect view onto the city hall, and the festival square! Not to mention that we were impressed by the cleanliness and hospitality of the host, including helping us with parking! We really enjoyed our stay in the heart of the city, and would definitely come back! Thanks!

Verified reviewThis apartment is quite a find. It looked exactly like the pictures and further wowed us once inside. The decor, spaciousness and natural lighting make it inviting and hard to leave. The location cannot be beat. The view of the city hall and #Sarajevo sign at night is stunning, and it is just steps away from the old town, the brewery, Latin bridge and a road that leads up to a spectacular view of the city. To top it all off, our host was exceptionally helpful and generous. He offered to pick us up and drop us off at the bus station.

Verified reviewAbsolutely wonderful apartment that we would highly recommend and come back to in the future. The view is amazing and very entertaining too, our son loved to point out the trams passing by. It's very spacious, well laid out, tastefully decorated and has all the amenities, including airconditioning, washing machine and dishwasher. Location can't be beaten - the Old Town begins just across the road. It exceeded our expectations!
Only a few minor things that would make the apartment even better: the bedrooms do not have their own airco units. We therefore slept with the doors open - a minor inconvenience as a family. The blinds on the bedroom windows don't block a lot of light, meaning our toddler was up at 6 am daily thinking the day had begun. The apartment is on the third floor without an elevator which didn't bother us, but could be an inconvenience for some. We drove a very large rental car (Opel Zafira) and it didn't fit into the provided garage. It was however no problem to park in front of the garage or directly on the street, as we mostly did. These minor things will certainly not keep us from coming back in the future!

Verified reviewCommunication with the property was very smooth and quick, they were ready and waiting - very polite, friendly and helpful. The property is light, spacious, comfy and well supplied with everything you'd need - we even got given a bottle of local wine (which was delicious)! The location was absolutely perfect, so central to everything we wanted to see and do!
Fortunately I'm fit enough to tackle stairs, but I'd imagine for those not so able, the stairs could be an issue - but otherwise absolutely fine! The shower could do with having a higher up holder, as it was chest hight - otherwise, the temp and pressure was fine.
