How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Nothing i didn’t like at all.
This property is exceptionally clean and warm.Also incredibly well equipped. Probably if I had realised I wouldn’t have ate out as much. This has everything you need and it’s very comfortable. No need to take the essentials as they are there. I can recommend to anyone. Good location for buses. Good for Queens Uni. I would look forward to returning in the future.

We had trouble finding the place, but my husband and son finally found the owner at a slightly different address, and she let them go through her house to get to the apartment. BUT...there were 3 codes and sets of keys, which made the location very secure, but also very frustrating to get into and out of. When we were leaving on early Sunday morning, we couldn't get out the gate, and she wasn't home, and we lost about 20 minutes figuring it out, as everyone on the block appeared to be asleep. Be sure to get GOOD and clear directions!
She provided milk and bread and a few other things, and we bought some more nearby. It was fine. The apartment was quite spacious and had 2 bathrooms, which is nice with 4 people. It is up a long flight of steps, however, which was hard for me with a bad knee. That fact needs to be made clear.

Myself, my husband and our 2 kids stayed at BT9 Granny flat for two nights. The host was super welcoming and even left a little hamper for us, which was a really lovely touch. The flat is in a great location, with Tesco just a few minutes away, private garage, really nice decor and spotless. A special host is the wonderful granny next door, we loved our chats in the afternoon. We really felt like at home. I would definitely recommend it for a trip with your kids to visit the city and Northern Ireland. Thanks Stephen for everything! We will be back!

Perfectly positioned for our visit to see my daughter who’s studying at Queens. Set back off Lisburn Road so nice and quiet but moments away from good places to eat and supermarkets. Private parking was a plus and there was a garden although we didn’t have the chance to use it. A nice welcome pack of Irish products from the host. There’s a smart tv, Wi-Fi and the beds very all extremely comfortable, mum and I both slept very well. Communication with Stephen was great, he replied quickly and was helpful

Only one shower, which is next to one of the bedrooms.
Quiet and well located for our purpose. Owner was very obliging for a very late booking. If you need to access the city centre it is walkable in about 1/2 hr. Otherwise there are buses. Convenient shopping on Lisburn Road - particularly M & S Food store and Tesco.
