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 reviewlocation and access to central chamonix
Inaccurate description there is no bedroom and this is a STUDIO with pull down bunkbeds in the hall way which then block access to the bathroom and block the only exit so in an emergency, it would be a danger to guests. Unsafe bunkbeds with no safety rail and ladder which does not fix well to the top bunk. Over crowded with kitchen equipment which leaves no storage for food. Some cupboards, but no room for luggage and jackets. When all beds, which are temporary, are put up for the night there is no room left and luggage had to be placed in front of the door. With the top bunk down, it’s so narrow that walking into the studio, you have to move to the side to avoid hitting your shoulder or head on the corner of it. Sofa bed uncomfortable and two friends sharing kept each other awake all night as this dips in the middle. I If you are skiing and have lots of clothes and equipment this is too cosy and the photos are deceiving, please see the actual layout of the property. This is only suitable for 2 people. please do not book this if you have children, the bunkbeds are too dangerous, they will fall out. AVIOD if you have any physical challenges or want to feel comfortable and move around with ease. UPDATE: response to owner – Complaint made to Booking.com who have given us a partial refund due to your listing being inaccuracy. You did NOT offer a FULL refund but partial. We didn't stay as we liked it but it was a school holiday and all affordable accommodation was fully booked. We had NO CHOICE we looked and wasted 5 hours of our holiday trying to find somewhere else. You don’t show the ladder attached you have to crawl under the ladder to get to the bathroom or exit. Bunks too low to store luggage and no space under table as chairs. Adults and older children will still have a serious injury if they fall from bunk and no mention of this in your listing!
Dear Melanie, I am sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your stay. However, I would like to clarify some of the points you mentioned. First, the layout of the apartment is exactly as shown in the photos. The pull-down bunk beds do not block the entrance or access to the bathroom in any way. As visible in the pictures, the top bunk does not have a safety rail, which is why it is recommended for adults or older children only, while the lower bunk is just 40 cm off the ground. Regarding storage, the living room wardrobe provides space for jackets and luggage, though, as with any compact apartment, larger amounts of luggage may need to be placed under the pull-down bed or table. The kitchen is fully equipped, which most guests consider an advantage, not a drawback. As for comfort, I take feedback seriously, which is why I offered you a FULL REFUND if you wished to find another place to stay after your initial complaint. You chose to remain for the entire stay, which suggests the apartment was suitable despite your criticisms. My listing is transparent, with plenty of photos, and I am always available to answer questions before booking. I believe my apartment offers great value for money in Chamonix, and it is unfair to suggest otherwise. Best regards Elisa

Verified reviewLocation was reasonably good and the host went out of her way to be accommodating and helped arrange parking
This accommodation is misrepresented. It’s a very small studio (think a small hotel room), not a one-bedroom flat. Installing foldable bunk beds in the hall doesn’t make it a bedroom. Two of us really struggled for space in the 4 days that we stayed, I would hate to think how three people would manage. The sofa bed is very uncomfortable to sleep in as are the bunk beds. Once you open them up there’s barely any space to move around. In addition, please read the fine print - parking is available at a surcharge and has to be booked in advance which I didn’t realise as the property description just says ‘private parking available’.
Dear Tatiana First thank you for your stay at my property and thank you for the time taken to review it. My apartment is a studio with a small space for the bunk bed. The classification is given by Booking automatically. The size is clearly stated in the property page and there are pictures of every corner of the apartment. It is also clearly specified that the parking is optional and costs an extra of 12 euros per night. The apartment is in the best area in Chamonix and it is one of the most equipped flats in the area. I am sorry you did not feel comfortable. I am always available and you could have told me and I would have cancelled you reservation for free and would have helped to find a better solution for you. I am always in touch with my guests so I wonder why you did not mention any of this during your stay.

Verified reviewLocation for the apartment was great, really clear directions provided by the host. From a couple of days in advance we were exchanging messages about how to find the apartment, how to access the parking, access the building, ski-locker etc. During the stay we had a bulb blow n the bathroom and after a quick message to the host - this was replaced by the time that we got back from the day on the slopes - Really couldn't have been more helpful and attentive
Not really a complaint because the description was really accurate but it would have been even better if there had just been a little bit more room in the apartment. However the location is easy to find, centrally based within few meters of shops and bars and a great base from which to explore.... and the host is most friendly and helpful host that you could wish for
Thank you for your accurate feedback Jon! It was a real pleasure to host you and you don't know how much I would also like to have a few more square meters in the house! ;) Welcome back anytime :)
