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.).

MaltaI bought a 5 days travel pass, but the location is so good I hardly used it. Sad to leave
The location is amazing, 5 mins walk to Rembrandtpl or Waterloopl, metro, tram, supermarkets and bars, cafes and shops on the streets nearby. Facing the Amstel, the apartment is located in an island of tranquility overlooking the hussle and bussle of the city. You are in the heart of the city but away but away from the crazyness, you can take a coffee to the bench and watch the city wake in the morning. You can walk almost everywhere in the city centre in 20-30 mins. The apartment is perfectly sized, spacious for this city, with quality furnishings and all the amenities you will need for week's stay. the bed is comfy, plenty of space to unpack your things and a small kitchenette to prepare meals. There isn't a stove due to fire regs, but I was still able to eat many meals in the apartment. Tastefully designed with a view into the river. The apartment is impeccably clean and organised, it makes staying here really easy. The host, Guido, was professional, friendly and flexible in his communication, you can feel the pride he has in his apartment and his joy in enabling visitors to experiance a slice of it. Guido lives upstairs and was available to welcome me and to say goodbye, we had a great chat and he was meticulous in explaining how to get the best out of my stay. Otherwise I didn't see Guido, so I still had my privacy and independence. I consider myself lucky to have found this place and to have stayed there. I have stayed in many hotels and apartments in Amsterdam, and I would definitely stay here again if it was available. If it is available for your dates, I advise you to book it before it goes.

Lovely little apartment on a quieter street while being a short walk away from quite literally everything. We loved enjoying our morning coffee on the bench out front and watching the boats go by. The service from Guido can not go unsaid, incredibly welcoming; his personal touch is becoming a lost art in this modern world.
