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 reviewI like the layout of the property, it’s very spacious. The balcony is also nice and big and fits 2 chairs. The property is clean, and very comfortable and I hope to stay again.
The property did not feel safe and this is because the locks on some of the windows do not work. The key lock on the balcony also does not work, this needs to be addressed as soon as possible. The inside and the material of the sofa bed needs a good clean.

Just think that they should clean your room every day instead of having to request it to be cleaned.

Verified reviewThe room and the property were clean and nice.
I didn’t feel safe at night mostly. There were a lot of Guys just walking in on the property at night trying to sell us weed. Trying to talk to us when we at the pool side when I just want to chill and have a piece of mind. They weren’t wearing a band. One of them pulled out a knife at a security because he ask him for his band but a lot of them wasn’t wearing any. I was told that when checking in that you must wear a band to use the bar and pool. I didn’t go back to the pool side after my first night. I understand that different people operate different areas of the property but people just walk in as they please. I have been their few years ago and it wasn’t like that. That’s why I booked that location. I see no smoking sign and those guys would just walk and smoke there in the day when we using the pool and I watch the security just walk by and said nothing. If they want to do that at night at the bar then fine but not all over the pool side. If people is coming in to support the bar, security should always be around that area at night. That wasn’t the case.

Verified reviewThe swimming pool was nice and the apartment was basic but clean.
If the reservation wasn't prepaid, I would have cancelled upon arrival since the lady at the reception desk was very unprofessional and arrogant. Reception was often unattended and the apartment wasn't ready despite having mentioned number of guests in the reservation.
