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 reviewModern bathroom, good lighting beside the beds for reading, good access to power points to recharge devices, kitchen well equipped but no oven or hobbs
The venetian blind in the kitchen wouldn't lower to the window sill
Thank you David for your thoughtful feedback! We're pleased to hear you found the apartment comfortable, well-equipped, and conveniently located. It's great to know the lighting and power access met your needs, and that you enjoyed the modern bathroom. Regarding the kitchen, we appreciate you noting the issue with the Venetian blind — we'll have that looked at promptly. While this large studio doesn’t have an oven or hob, it is equipped with an electric stove, frying pan, and other essential utensils for light cooking. If you're looking for a space with a full oven and hob for future stays, we also have another apartment available that includes these features. We’d be happy to help you choose the best fit for your needs next time. Thanks again for staying with us!

Verified reviewConvenient location. Comfortable beds. Full kitchen and a full-size fridge & freezer. Plenty of hot water and shower had good pressure.
Very tired looking, couches not comfortable. Bathroom badly needs doing up, mold on windowsill. Had to ask manager to get cockroach baits after we had to kill two of them. Entry difficult to negotiate due to odd parking layout and overflow carpark badly needs potholes fixing.
Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you found the location convenient and appreciated the kitchen amenities and shower. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered with the bathroom, furniture, and pests — these are not the standards we aim for, and we’re already addressing these concerns. We also appreciate your comments about parking and will look into improvements. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Verified reviewI got a good night's sleep, which is really what you pay for. I guess the place was pretty much what it said on the label.
It was far smaller than I anticipated- the fridge was within an arm's length of the bed and I had to pull the plug out each night. The only big thing about the place were the cockroaches.
