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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

Didn't realize apartment was split across an upstairs and downstairs when booking. Not a big deal for us, but could affect people traveling with disabilities if they don't know ahead of time.
Amazing location, nice accommodations. Great for our family. Easy check-in, check-out.

The apartment was situated in a quiet and safe neighbourhood. A great location for bars, restaurants or simply strolling its quirky streets. It is also in easy walking distance to many transport hubs that proved to be an ideal base to explore this wonderful city. Bathroom and laundry facilities were great and the modern well kept kitchen would make any home chef happy. The building is secure and well kept and you also have a nice balcony to look out from. Communication with the staff was clear and prompt. Their offices are close to the apartment and they are also able to look after your luggage on the day of departure.

Concerning the property everything was just perfect! The free transfer from the airport was a bit difficult, had to call the WeTransfer company to get a driver… but it was sorted out eventually.
Excellent location, most landmarks within walking distance. Quiet, well equipped. We were able to store our luggage until the room was ready at around 14:00. The Inside Barcelona staff was very friendly.

I thought it was a bit mean charging us extra because we didn't arrive until 9 pm. It's an automatic check-in which would have been exactly the same if we'd arrived a few hours earlier. It's not like anyone had to wait to meet us or anything.
This apartment is really lovely. It's cosy and very comfortable in a great part of the city. Close to everything, yet peaceful at night. Spectacular views of El Born. I would highly recommend staying here. A perfect place to stay for a long weekend.

The singelbed was a bit to soft. It would have been nice with some oil, vineager and spices in the kitchen.
The apartment have a fantastic location on a quiet street and walking distance to a lot of tourist attractions and shopping. For us, two friends, was it perfect with two separate bedrooms. We visited Barcelona in the end of January and the heatingsystem was easy and quick. We did not use the terrasse due to the the weather, but no doubt is it great in the summertime while there is no sunshine at the backyard.

Location, Location, Location...... the the apartment was centrally located at the door steps of the Gothic District, near the Ciudadela Park (just like New York Central Park}, and walking distance to port, the beach and Barceloneta. Many restaurants, and stores. The 2-level apartment itself was amazing. Very modern, fully equiped, including a great rooftop deck with a view of the area.
