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.).

CanadaThe property is in a great location, nice neighbourhood, with lots to do within walking distance. The space was very clean and comfortable. Property host was very responsive to communications and provided us with very clear instructions and a helpful list of places to eat nearby! I’d definitely stay again and recommend to anyone visiting the area. Parking was difficult to find as it was a beautiful day and very busy, however, the host did warn us about this in advance and provided options!

United StatesIt was not a big deal, but parking was a little confusing. I did arrive on a weekend day. The area was busy because of the lake, and me being from out of town was overwhelmed. There is pay to park 1 block over and that made everything better.
The location was in walking distance of the beach, restaurants, and the concert venue (history). My trip was about a concert and this property was perfect.

United KingdomWe had a lovely stay. The suite was cozy, and we had everything that we needed. We were sent clear and detailed instructions on how how to check in, and we were also sent information about the area. The Beaches is a beautiful area, and the suite is right by the water. It does take approximately an hour to get to the location from downtown via street car. However, we were aware of this when we booked the location, so it wasn't a surprise, and the street car route is simple.

CanadaThe room is in the basement of an old house, therefore as expected you can hear steps and noise from upstair. I didn't stay for too long in the room during the day, so it didn't bother me much, in one of the nights I could hear steps and noise (probably flushing) upstairs around 1am.
The check-in was pretty easy and had detailed instructions. The room is well equipped, the bed was comfortable for one person, the shower was hot. The location was ideal for me as I mainly stayed there to go to a concert at History which is like a 15 min walk, however I have not used the public transportation so not sure how easy would it be, by car it was a bit far from downtown. I think it would be nice in summer given the proximity to the beach.

CanadaWhen returning in the dark it would be good to have a motion light in the access area as I could have tripped in the dark-I was able to use my phone flashlight so no big deal . A suggestion for spare batteries as the main TV remote battery I felt was going to die soon had to be very close to Tv for it work -again just a minor suggestion.
I loved it here. Owner communicated very clearly and promptly with checking in instructions. Every detail and convenience was thought of . The bed was very comfortable , with a choice of 3 different types of pillows. Wish I could have stayed longer . As a single traveller it felt very secure and a safe location . Easy access to downtown Toronto too.

IrelandThe narrow alleyway and steps down to the room are a little off-putting, especially as it was getting dark when I arrived. There is a step down into the bathroom, which I felt should be signposted - The kettle and toaster can't be used at the same time as a fuse will blow - a wee bit on the basic side, but as I was only there for one night, I didn't mind.
The cleanliness and comfort of the bed The owner, Consuelo, promptly responded to my queries. The proximity to Lake Ontario (10 mins away) - it's a great area - I had a swim in Lake Ontario. The owner kindly allowed me to use her shower after checkout, which I really appreciated.

FinlandThe apartment above was sometimes a bit noisy. It was told beforehand in the suite information that there might be some noise so it wasn't unexpected but still a bit louder. However, we were mostly elsewhere during the days and in the nights there were silent so it didn't bother us too much.
The suite is very comfortable and spacious enough for two persons. It's easy to travel to the city centre by a streetcar and the environment is nice (located near the beach). The small kichenette is great. The host was very friendly. We really enjoyed our time there.

United StatesConsuelo, mille grazie! This was one of my favorite places to stay. Wonderful location and a fantastic value for the price. I will definitely stay there again, if possible, and I highly recommend. The room was clean and the futon was very firm and comfortable. I felt very safe there and the area is beautiful! I actually might see if they are available again soon. I live right on the border in NY and I love to spend the night in Toronto for concerts. If I could master the parking, I'd go to this location over many others. Although I didn't personally need to meet Consuelo, she was a wonderfully communicative host and a pleasure to chat with. Five out of five for me! :) Thanks again.

United KingdomThe bed was not the most comfortable, it was so difficult to sit on the bed as you would just sink into it. I was advised on the information prior to arrival to expect some noise between 6-8pm which was understandable as the room is below their dining area, however the noise was also in the early hours of the morning which at times woke us up and unfortunately the noise does sound quite loud in the room. The shower was good however it is very difficult as there is no shower caddy to put anything in which means it all has to go on the floor of the shower which is already quite small, especially difficult trying to wash long hair in the space available. The parking situation was another thing that wasn't great as you could park outside the residence until midnight but wouldn't be able to leave it there overnight and this meant having to move it every morning at 7am. We were given recommendations as where to park and also able to apply for a residence permit but for the daily prices it didn't make sense. It is still a good accommodation and I think with some improvements it could be great; especially the mattress and the bathroom.
I enjoyed the location of the property and the room was well designed. The information provided by the host was detailed and very informative. Easy to get into the property with the door code which made check in very smooth.
