Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

United KingdomVery easy to find, a really good location with free on-site parking (no dropped kerb, but we were aware of this before arrival). The apartment itself was really big and looked exactly like pictures. Clean, comfortable and had everything we could have wanted for our stay. We could have stayed longer than one night, maybe next time! Within 10 minutes walking distance to city centre shops, pubs, bars and restaurants and the Quays shopping area. Host was easy to contact and replied quickly and kindly let us leave our car for a couple of hours before and after check-in.

United KingdomGiven that's its an old building and retains its original sash windows the problem is they allow quite a lot of road noise and the building is next to a stretch of road and the noise from which can be intrusive. Although the traffic died down after 23.00 light sleepers may want to consider this.
Ideal location with off street parking very close to all the amenities the city has to offer. The apartment was clean, comfortable and had all the provisions you could need. The hosts were very easy to deal with and the overall experience was positive. A quirky building with charm that beats staying in a sterile hotel with no character.

United KingdomSome areas for improvement include; the fridge had opened bottles of pop, the flat felt like it needed a deep clean and the shower, as has been noted in other reviews, has very little pressure. However, we really enjoyed the apartment and our stay.
My wife and i really enjoyed our stay at the river apartment. The apartment is in a beautiful building and has a lovely balcony with a lovely view out over the river and the nature reserve. It is West facing and enjoyed a beautiful sunset. The host was flexible with regards to our departure time which was appreciated.

United KingdomParking slightly awkward as there is no dropped kerb
Loved the decor, plenty of space, good location, on site parking (at the far end of the building, past the antique shop), close to the docks which is a nice area to walk around and has lots of places to eat.

AustraliaQuite a bit of regular maintenance needs to be done and the cleaning was not up to scratch. Guests need to be informed that the parking is at the end of the building over a kerb and not on the left hand side of it as that belongs to customer parking for the antique shop next door and the poor owner gets quite upset that his customer parking is taken.
Beautiful position on a narrower part of the River Severn.

United KingdomBedding had a damp smell possibly from the laundry not drying properly. Came across the stiff pillow from other reviews but there's more comfy pillows in the living room storage.
Brilliant location in Gloucester city centre but in a quiet location. Absolutely loved the balcony overseeing the river. Elaine was friendly and easy to reach. The flat had most amenities we needed for an evening in, it was very cosy on a cold winters night as well.
