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.).

GermanyThis apartment is really great, we would book here again at any time. As described before, everything you could possibly need is there - amazing. And yes, the apartment faces the back and is really quiet, we slept very well. Everything was very clean. You can easily go to the city or take the bus in front of the house. Everything was fine, thank you very much!

GermanyI liked everything about this stay. First of all, Stella is simply the best host: she provided all the useful informations beforehand, she contacted me to ask if I needed anything, and her place was just perfect: If you are looking for a clean and cozy apartment equipped with everything and very close in Helsinkis city center, then this is your place! Also, the neighborhood is quite vibrant and there are a lot of restaurants and bars and other amenities! The area is quiet and dotted with green spots and parks, I loved it!!

BelgiumI left the appartment (and left the key as agreed in the appartment) and forgot something inside. I called Stella from who I rented the appartment who was very friendly, she was helpfull in finding a solution. The owner of the whole building came with a key but charged me 20 Euros, which I found very expensive.

Great location, walking distance to all interesting places in Helsinki. There were no problems with the check-in, very detailed clear instructions. Tiny but cozy and quiet room, clean, everything is enough in the kitchen, delicious tea and coffee. The bathroom is also good. The owners are very friendly and hospitable. Excellent for its price.

LithuaniaThe communication with the hosts was very fluent and easy, as well as the pick up of the keys. The apartment is located as well in a great area of the city. I highly recommend this studio for those who are coming for a quick trip and want to live in a comfortable area of the city. The place and the host were simply great!

EstoniaWell, the opposite house can see straight in from the window, unless the blinds are closed. But they have added everything necessary (like the foggy section on the glass and blinds + curtains), so we didn't feel like it was actually an issue. Netflix kept disconnecting for some reason, forgot to write to the owners regarding that. Again, not anything important.
I liked that it has a secure access, so not just anybody can come into the house. There are full-functioning appliances and all necessary utilities. My favorite were the Moomin cups! The bed and the couch were also really-really comfy. Didn't want to leave... Everything was so clean! Also loved the instructions folder in the apartment, made us feel warm and welcome. Like everything was thought of. The access to communal transport is also good. There's a bus stop right in front of the house and a tram stop close by. Even a few bars were right around the corner. All in all, a fantastic place to stay at! Thank you!

Australia-Not so much a “didn’t like” but just something to consider if you’re sharing the bed with someone as it’s against a wall - you’ll need to climb over the other person if you need to get up in the night like we do! But there is also a sofa bed you can use :)
-Detailed check-in instructions with photos were very helpful -Welcome guide was informative and recommendations for local spots were great -The space is small but the hosts have really thought of everything that travellers might need e.g. washing powder and a clothes horse!
