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.).

Poland- noise. it seemed like somebody was washing drying every night. Air-climate system is strange, it turned on regularly and almost blew me out. And of cause it was extremely noisy. Sometimes something turned on at the night and the whole apartment vibrating. - Everybody in the street can see you inside. Curtains are very helpful. - A street is narrow but quite busy. You can see tracks roofs in front of you. - Homeless people around. One of them had breakfast on the stairs to the hotel, left a lot of garbage and then nobody cleaned up after him.
-Great location - close to metro, railway station, downtown, grocery in the building. -fully equipped as a usual apartment, everything of good quality. -clean inside. - 24 hours digital access.

CanadaUncomfortable and worn couch for sitting! The only area that wasn't impeccably clean was the ceiling fan in the bathroom which was furry with dust and dirt. Took a long time to get hot water from taps.
Location was walkable to hospital and downtown. Building was quiet. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking real meals. Hasty market downstairs was convenient. Easy access instructions.

United KingdomThe bedroom was next to the aircon engine so there was a constant buzzing that could be noisy at night. The bed was smaller than expected. Also the TV had very limited available programmes.
Very central location, easy to walk everywhere. The apartment was new and very well equipped. There were supplies for breakfast such as coffee and teas.

CanadaOur unit faced the street. In the first morning, construction workers operated noisy equipment right under our bedroom window (second floor). It was unpleasant. However, the rest of our stay was very pleasant.
The unit (we had a one-bedroom condo) is lovely. It is very clean and well equipped with excellent appliances. The location is fantastic. There is no lobby/reception there. However, we had one small problem with the tv, we called them and they fixed it very fast. Finally, the Sonder app is very helpful. I liked the digital key.

ThailandSonders has personal that answers emails which weren't helpful. The email responses were slow and everything we asked for was a big no. Early check in -NO, Every hour we checked in early would cost us 25CAD same as late check out. House keeping would also be charged. I'm not sure how Sonders want to position themselves Sonders should be a bit more understanding for travellers. Sometimes, we can't get the flights we want and we are stuck. We got to Sonders at 2pm and we wanted to checked in immediately because we're tired. If the room is available, let the guests check in. Same as the late check outs.
This is my first time using Sonders so I was a little apprehensive as it's not a hotel. But when we arrived we met the most wonderful Sonder personnel Allison. She is caring and understanding. We had just landed after an 18 hour flight and were exhausted and hungry. Allison immediately arranged to have us checked into the apartment at 2pm and helped us settled in. She took away the baby cot , opened the sofa bed for us, showed us where the amenities are, and approved our late check out. She made us feel welcome and that's why we will use Sonders in the future. Sonders have a fully kitchen which was very useful and we appreciates the washing machine and dryer. All personnel we met at the apartment was polite and helpful. We had a wonderful stay at Sonders and looks forward to more Sonder stays at different corners of the world.

United KingdomThe pictures on booking.com do not reflect that actual room you are booking. There are only 3 Sonder apartments, so I feel it wouldn’t be difficult attach pictures to each of the different rooms so you know which one you are booking. That said we knew we’d be happy with any of them, so wasn’t put off booking, although I’m sure this could be a deciding factor for some.
You can walk to a lot of central locations from Elm Street. The apartment is situated above a minimart so really easy to stock up on essentials for your trip. I’d you are renting a car there is a car park opposite the main entrance. It’s charged at $4 per 20 minutes but capped at $20 for the entire day. The Sonder team leave you cleaning materials (inc dishwasher tablets) and also leave plenty of bathroom essentials too. There is an essentials cupboard in the apartment block that has plenty more of these items in case you run out and it can be accessed at any time of the day. You can also book a room clean via the app, we didn’t use this service as our stay was short and we didn’t spend a lot of time inside. Having a washer/dryer during our trip was really handy. WIFI was fast and reliable and is unique to your apartment. The apartment was spacious and clean with modern decor, and is definitely one I’d recommend for a city break in Toronto.

AustraliaFlooring is a little worn (vinyl and also the carpet).
Location was very handy to downtown (20 min walk to Union Station and CN Tower), and the facility feels secure. Kitchen equipment is in good condition. There is a Handy Mart next door and a diner across the road for breakfast and lunch. Communication from Sonder was very good, with fast response to online queries.
