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.).

AustraliaBeds were terribly uncomfortable. Good size king bed but mattress needs replacing as it is like sleeping on a bean bag. A few more kitchen utensils would have been great.
Location is outstanding. 2 minutes walk to restaurants, cafes and waterfront bars and attractions. Provides off street parking in hidden back yard

AustraliaStairs are a little steep and narrow, this didn’t worry us but may be something to mention for those who aren’t good with stairs. There was also a small amount of noise from clubs/pubs near by at night but didn’t keep us awake.
Apartment was great! Very good location, super clean and well maintained. Everything you need for a few days in Hobart. Super short walk to Salamanca and great restaurants/cafes. There was also a smart TV which was handy. We enjoyed our stay and definitely stay again.

AustraliaAs we were in the middle of our holiday a washing machine would have been great but for most not needed. The hosts had thought of everything to make it easier for us - where to eat, see etc
The location was excellent and there was secure parking available for a small additional cost. The room was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Even though it was a studio apartment it had everything you needed apart from a washing machine.

AustraliaNothing at all. Beware, for people with mobily issues, steps maybe an issue. (This is to be expected in a 150+ year old building, we loved it ourselves)
Lovely comfy accommodation in a beautiful historic building and location in Battery Point. Easy process to check in with car parking at small fee.

AustraliaA minor issue but some people would be particular about a few stains on the lounge, that would probably be difficult to remove. It did not distract us however.
The owners were very cooperative and facilitated an early check in. They were very reactive and assisted us in managing our luggage on the stairs. For this, we were very grateful. Our executive suite was compact, clean, well appointed and largely modern. The location in Battery Point was perfect. The surrounding streets were rich with superbly built and maintained colonial cottages and mansions. The short walk to the CBD, the waterfront and Salamanca was a very positive aspect.

AustraliaThe stairs are very narrow and reminded us of our accommodation in Ireland!
From the start, all information delivered to us was extremely easy to understand. The old renovated rooms had lots of character - I could only imagine if the walls could talk! Had a great time here exploring Hobart, MONA and the markets - would definitely recomend!

United KingdomThere was some road noise (not constant by any means), which probably wouldn't affect many people but we come from a place that is silent at night so it disturbed us a little.
Clean spacious studio apartment, well resourced kitchen, great location for city centre and Salamanca area with it's bars and quaint shops (we missed the markets by a day though). Great hosts.
