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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

AustraliaUnfortunately the property could have been a little cleaner, a few roaches around property and splatters on bathroom mirror.....a quick clean over BEFORE we arrived at the property would have sufficed for the amount of money paid for the stay, BUT in saying that before check in we were offered professional cleaners to come if we had noticed any visible cleaning needs. We just picked up the few roaches and cleaned the mirror with antibacterial wipes nothing too difficult, preferred to do that than have the stay interrupted with cleaners coming in. As we were only there a short 3 days. Let this little hiccup not deter you from the property as I'm sure the hosts in future will be mindful to do a quick check over prior to any guest checking in. Despite these small findings the property is well kept. A quick clean before arrival would have made all the difference and alot more satisfying.
Instructions were very clear in locating keys, photos provided for step by step instructions. Communication with host was very responsive and prompt which was very necessary when we mistakenly went to the wrong address for key collection. (Entirely our mistake) Upon realising our error we were so thankful for hosts quick response to assist us. The host is very professional, polite and lovely to interact with. Overall property is wonderful, fantastic views!

AustraliaIt's just a little bit far from the city, but was very close to the Ferry station, bus stop, and train station. I personally would prefer a location close to the city to cut down the commute time.
The apartment was spacious and comfortable. Got good views of the river.

AustraliaThe fact that there was only one key to the apartment. As we were a group we constantly had to work out who was going where and who would be back first etc and then that person was responsible for letting everyone else in even in the middle of the night. The complex was also u der going renovation work which we weren’t told about when we booked and there was alot of noise at various time during the day.
I loved the location and size of the apartment it was perfect for our group

AustraliaThe maintenance of the apartment was done in poor condition. For example, the toilet paper holder was broken but wrapped with some white tape so it wouldn't fall; we had to give the showerhead a thorough clean before use because of the dried soap left from the last guest; one of the side tables had a black patch on it that was so sticky, etc. Unfortunately, we didn't rest well during the stay because of the mattresses - the quality of the mattresses were very poor. Also, the building was constantly in maintenance - drilling sound from the rooftop since 6am and most of the time we couldn't access to the lift from the garage.
Spacious apartment with huge balcony.
