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.).

South AfricaThis was a beautiful, comfortable apartment with everything we needed for a comfortable stay in Istanbul. It's close to shops and restaurants and a 5 minute walk to Taksim metro and Istiklal. Our host was lovely - extremely helpful and responded quickly. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this to anyone else visiting Istanbul.

New ZealandAt the end of an old, pretty run down area, yet a one minute walk to the Beyoğlu area which is excellent. All in all a good location. Main drawback for us was being up 3 flights of stairs, not ideal if you're older like us. Some of the units are lower, worth asking for if available. Handan was a great host, responsive and great to deal with.

United KingdomThere's no AC in the bedroom so a bit warm at night in summer.
The spacious apartment comes with natural design in a restored traditional house, which made us very comfy. The location is excellent to connect the metro station and tourist spots in walking distance. The host is extremely nice to provide us the help we need. Really recommend it.

JordanI wish there was an elevator in the building. Regardless, we enjoyed the 3 bedroom apartment in the building. It had a lovely balcony that overlooked the area. I enjoyed my morning coffee.
I liked that the apartment was close to Taksim Square. We just had to cross the road and we were there. Lots of coffee shops, restaurants, and retail in the area. We really enjoyed it.

MoldovaNothing to complain about.
We have really enjoyed our stay at Kunterbunt, and this is largely due to our charming and friendly host Handan who put a lot of care and attention to make it comfortable and stress-free. She provided us with all the property details beforehand and gave us a warm welcome. The apartment is as described, it has everything you may need there. The kitchen area is well-equipped although we mainly had our meals out in the city. The apartment balcony provides a nice view of the area. The location is also great, neither far nor too close to the nightlife buzz of İstiklal Avenue, so we could sleep well at night. AC and the Internet worked Ok. Thank you, dear Handan, for making our first stay in this fantastic city so amazing.

Romania- the view from the bedroom is not the best, it is towards a part of the building in ruins (we ignored it) - the apartment felt quite annoying humidity at night
The experience was great at this accommodation, we highly recommend it! -very close to the center of Taksim where you can find anything you want (food, entertainment, promenade) -close to bus and metro stations -the apartment looks very nice, it was clean and was equipped with everything I needed -the host is extremely nice and the self-check-in was helpful p.s. We recommend eating just around the corner near the accommodation at Sofram (good and cheap food), but also a few steps down the main street at HK Hebap House (Halil Ibrahim Kebap Evi)

AustraliaThere's nothing really to complain about!
The host is fantastic, very genuine, extremely helpful, and goes above and beyond to assist with you. She was the highlight of the accommodation. The room is neat and clean, and what you need for a long or shirt stay. Close to Taksim Square, restaurants and main shopping strip. Also close to local bus stop. Very very close to a mini mart, which is 24 hours, and it was our main source of snacks, milk, water, etc.

United Arab EmiratesWould have been great if the place had a lift since we were at the higher floor. Though it is not a major hassle to move the luggage up and down during checkin and checkout respectively, you may feel it if you had a lot of luggage. For me I felt it was only a negligible matter considering the value the place offered.
Great location, neat and clean apartment with balcony! Close to Taksim Square and Istiklal Etreet - just 6 to 10 minutes walk depending on pace! Easy to travel to all tourist locations and get Uber! The best part is the host. She is so nice, adorable, pleasant, kind and such a lovely person. I think I like the host more than the place!! My kids loved staying here since it had a duplex set up and had staircase connecting the mezzanine floor to the base floor of the apartment. Will love to stay here again. This place is value for money!

Everything was amazing. We booked two apartments for all our family and they both were fantastic. Handan is a property owner and she was amazing and very friendly and helpful. She is very dedicated to her guests and the best thing about this property was that although we were quite a big group and sometimes there was noise of kids but they were really supportive.
