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.).

United KingdomThe AC in the living room was a bit of a pain as we used it as a bedroom too, but it is our fault to not let the host know earlier. Nothing in the toilet to hang your clothes.
The hosts were really nice and very helpful particularly Hasan, he was very helpful and readily available. Location was great, just a short walk from major attractions, although a bit of a hill to climb on not so pram friendly streets.

AustraliaPerhaps they could add some hooks/rails for hanging in bathroom & bedroom & add small bedside tables. Kitchen is not well-stocked if you're planning to cook meals. More basic utensils are needed & it would be really helpful if basic condiments were provided like salt & pepper & cooking oil (they did provide salt).
The location was very convenient for walking to most major sightseeing activities plus there were plenty of restaurants/cafes within easy walking distance. The neighbourhood felt safe, even at night. There was a washing machine in the apartment which was a bonus when travelling. The manager was always available by WhatsApp to answer questions or if there was a problem.

United KingdomVery little to cause any problem. The apartment is a good size for two people, but would probably seem small for a larger group. The lighting is rather dim at night and would be improved by having a desk or reading light in the living room. Two of the plug sockets need repair. Kitchen was adequate, but a little basic (hob, kettle and microwave) and there could have been more kitchen implements, glassware, plates and cutlery etc.
An excellent location (bearing in mind steep hills), about ten minutes' walk from all the main sites, in a quiet and non-tourist, unpretentious neighbourhood. Close to normal supermarkets and shops. Comfortable and clean: bins emptied daily and towels changed frequently. Good heating and hot water in cold weather, good bathroom, washing machine and adequate kitchen facilities. Perfect size and good value for two people for a longish stay.

United KingdomThe hotel arranged a transfer for me, which was over an hour late, although the hotel owner apologised a lot and got some money taken off the total for the transfers for me. There was some miscommunication about cash / card payments which resulted in me frantically running to an ATM five minutes before my return transfer picked me up, but otherwise very good!
The apartment was comfortable and clean. It was very peaceful and quiet at night and I slept really well. I really liked the roof terrace and it was close to restaurants, shops, tram stations and most major attractions were in walking distance. The staff were friendly and polite.

United KingdomWhen we went there the electricity was the major problem . As we would leave in the morning and come back in the evening it was not big deal but one day that we stayed back the electricity was not available for 6 hours and this resulted in apartment getting hot and no Wifi .
The place is within walking distance of all the major attractions in Istanbul it has basic cooking facilities with fridge and AC . Tv is there but all Turkish channels . I think it's good if your plan is not more than 3 days .

United StatesThe lighting is very poor. The photos are not like what we experienced. There are only overhead lights and it’s generally a dark apartment (I was in apartment 2). It needs a lamp in the living room and bedroom especially during darker months. Kitchen had no paper towels or cloths. Easy enough to purchase at the market near the park down the hill. Also, toilet paper was brought daily but not enough for two people (again, an easy fix to purchase at the market). For the money, it can’t be beat. It’s just needs some TLC.
The property was functional and suited our needs. It has a fridge so one can keep food and not have to go out. It’s soundproof from road noise but noisy guests can be heard though the walls. Rooftop terrace offers stunning views. The manager helped me find emergency dental when I broke a crown enjoying one too many Turkish Delights and baklava. Lots of cats in the neighborhood 😀

Our actual room, when we moved next day was good in terms of it was good space, it was clean. It had little things like shower gel, soaps which was not available in the previous room. Faith area very hilly. So wherever you go, expect to walk uphill.
