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.).

SpainEverything was so rundown, overused. There was only a tiny pan and one pot for cooking. They gave us a tiny bit of paper towel and only 1 1/2 rolls of toilet paper for 4 people 4 days. The beds were not in good condition, the pillow lumpy from so many washings. The bathroom sink wouldn’t drain.
It was in a cool location. At first sight the apartment we got looked nice enough.

CroatiaNow, the things that made me write this review. Why let a nice apartment go downhill because of laziness??? First of all, there were six of us and the apartment is listed for six people, so why wasn’t the sofa bed set up before our arrival, especially since it was clearly stated that six guests were coming? Instead, we had to play Dora the Explorer, searching for bed linen around the apartment. Also, ONE TOWEL PER PERSON for four nights. Like, hello? Not to mention the host said someone would come after 2–3 days to bring fresh towels, but that never happened—“they’re working on it,” haha. They’re probably still working on it to this day. Also, only two rolls of toilet paper for six people over four days... it felt like some kind of joke. The apartment is poorly maintained—the bathtub drain gets clogged when you shower, and the edges of the tub and shower are dirty… overall, just not clean.
I'm not the type of person who usually writes reviews, but I believe this place deserves some encouragement, so for that reason I'm giving it a 7—otherwise, my rating based on the service alone would be LOWER. But let's move on to the positive sides: if the location suits you while you're in London, it's great—there are markets, restaurants, and breakfast spots nearby. The metro station is a bit farther away, but that's not a major issue. The apartment is spacious, and even though there were six of us, we had plenty of room to spread out, store our luggage, and get ready. The apartment is not badly decorated for that style, but it is a bit worn down (e.g. the drawers are falling apart, and similar small issues). It's great if you want to cook something for yourself—there’s a kitchen and full kitchen equipment. It lacks air conditioning, which can be an issue when visiting London in warmer weather, but I understand that AC isn't common there, so it's not a big complaint.

ItalyIn the end all good, but I would have preferred to find the same one as the photos, but I think the building was the same. In any case, good and quiet apartment equipped with all comforts
The apartment is located in a quiet, silent and very nice place. Equipped with all the comforts but it was not exactly the one in the photos, but very similar, all in all... good. As for the cleaning, it was discreet. For the rest I would certainly go back.

NetherlandsThe floor was a bit dusty, the beds are very small and noisy, the second floor has no window and it’s a very small room, it’s not really a bedroom I’d part of the giant living room closed with drywall! The bathroom has no curtains so it wets the floor, the fridge you need to turn the switch and we didn’t see that so it wasted our food!
Very well located in Shoreditch, close to many restaurants and bus station Goos reasonable price for London with 2 rooms and a big apartment! Very easy to pickup the keys, just follow the instructions and any time since it’s a 24h store!

SpainWe were eight people, cutlery and household in the kitchen was very limited. The apartment was too warm there was no control of heating. A little bit noisy at night due to the fact that there were a lot of pubs nearby and ambulance police all night
The apartment has a very good and convenient location. It is the perfect place for exploring the city. The customer service was really good, as they answered all doubts quickly and politely.

BulgariaThe key collection process is confusing and complicated. The company that manages a number of properties gives you wrong information about collecting the keys from an office in Camden, which is too far to walk. Then you have to contact them via Whatsapp so they can give you an extensive list of rules and instructions. You have to pay at least 300 GBP damages deposit. For people who have no idea what KEYNEST is they should have provided some explanation, not everyone lives in the UK. There is a handful of codes they have to provide you with - for the Keynest, for the front door of the building, for the elevator, for the starts (in case you decide to take the stairs). I really regret booking this because of all these complications - but it was a last minute booking and I did not read the reviews before booking. The security deposit has been returned as promised within 3 days after the checkout.
It is a good location, and the apartment was nice, furnished mainly with Ikea. Be advised that you may not be accommodated in the apartment you have seen in the pictures - there are a few different properties supposedly of the same quality as pictured.
