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.).

AustraliaThe bed was far too small for a couple and collapsing in the middle. There is not enough seating in the lounge area. The shower is difficult to adjust, and bad water pressure. There was a smoky smell and wall plugin perfumes used to disguise it.

United KingdomThe bed- mattress all you could feel was the springs. Also for a couple who are 6ft/ 6ft.4 the bed was uncomfortable. Very loud neighbours- light switches to the side and heavy footsteps above. Stained rug which didn’t look very nice.
Location was great, we were lucky enough to be there over a weekend and bank holiday so didn’t need to worry about paying to park. Otherwise it would cost a small fortune. Kitchen facilities were great. Easy access and nice spacious room.

United KingdomIt’s not the property, it’s the grindingly painful process to pay a security deposit on the day of the stay. I’ve done this twice now and the process doesn’t work well. I spent the best part of an hour texting and ringing to get this sorted out, all the time fearing it would go wrong and I would have nowhere to stay. The staff at Hopewell were absolutely great, but the process is a disaster.
Location is great. Well equipped.

United KingdomThe bed was appalling, it's a tiny bed in a very big space. It's metal framed and very loose so it rattles persistently with even the minutest of movement. On the first morning nearly gashed my leg on a protruding spring from the mattress, my wife barely slept it was that uncomfortable which prompted an immediate phone-call to the managing agents, Hopewell, to demand that the mattress be changed (which in fairness they did). I have ticked the box saying that 'I wouldn't stay here again' based solely on the quality of the sleeping arrangements. If you want me to stay here again (& I would in a heartbeat) CHANGE THE BED. It threatened to spoil what was a very nice stay. I hope that this review informs other potential stays the BIG downside of a rather lovely apartment...
The apartment couldn't have been more perfect, the location, the space, the everything was perfect there is however, a but and it's a very BIG BUT...........

SwitzerlandNothing i can blame the hosts over, however, the Doors slam. (Safety doors). Neighbours left at 7 am and the door woke us up! Shower was a bit of a mystery on how to get the temperature correct. If I were staying longer I would have called about the shower for advice, however it was a small inconvenience for a few minutes in the morning.
Well-appointed and modern. Super clean in the apartment with a fairly quiet street.

United KingdomThe bed was so uncomfortable, there was a spring sticking out the mattress & it squeaked and creaked with every movement. It was a shame given everything else was lovely. Also I thought given the size and standard of the apartment too it was odd the bed wasn't king sized too.
Super spacious, modern & clean apartment!

United KingdomThe only couch in the living room was very badly stained - this was reported with photo’s immediately as a deposit of £150 was held in authorisation on my card - This really let the standard of the accommodation down . I was keen to ensure that we would not be held responsible. This was never acknowledged during our stay.

United KingdomVery small point - would have a liked a larger dining table, it was little small even for 2 people, though the room was huge and spacious enough to fit one! Apart from that minor niggle, everything was great.
Comfortable apartment, with spacious kitchen/living area. The ktichen was well-appointed, the bedroom very comfortable, the bathroom was slightly small but comfortable and the shower cubicle was spacious. Well decorated & clean throughout The location was ideal for us (close to Clifton) and lots of restaurants/bars on the doorstep.
