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.).

United KingdomSitting room and bedroom were very small, and there was a bit of noise transference from the restaurant downstairs (not too much of a problem once we realised that's where it came from and that it would stop at midnight). Very steep stairs up to the flat.
The location and views were brilliant, the heating worked well on a very cold weekend.

splendid view normally. On our visit there was scaffolding up that was a little inconvenience, however the owner recognized that and adjusted the price. Very thoughtful, thank you. The kitchen facilities were great.

United KingdomThe flat is situated quite close to a busy road, but noise was only really an issue during the daytime as very few cars pass through at night. As other reviews have stated there is a flight of steep stairs into the flat which wasn't an issue for us but might be difficult for those with reduced mobility or lots of luggage, there are plenty of handrails to hang onto. Our trip unfortunately aligned with some building work being performed on the property above the apartment, but the hosts were very upfront about this and did everything they could to minimize the impact on our stay.
My partner and I stayed for a long weekend in September and benefited from a late heatwave. The apartment is perfectly situated for beach access, trips to many of the main Margate attractions and gets an uninterrupted view of the famous sunsets! Modern and spotlessly clean, close to all of the traditional British seaside activities, it worked perfectly for us!

United KingdomIt's very hot in the apartment after 3 pm and dark roller blinds make it even worse, shower has some difficulties to have a right temperature (again just wanted to use it for a baby, for adults it's alright ), the sofa needed to have some deep cleaning. And we really were upset when on the last day we woke up very early because of builders working on sky folding and making a lot of noise, and no one notified us.
The location and the view are amazing, really enjoyed watching sunsets and waking up with a an empty beach view :) the kitchen has everything for a comfortable cooking (we were travelling with a newborn so couldn't really enjoyed restaurants a lot).

United KingdomThe stairs are narrow and steep but that’s my opinion :) everything is 10/10 but the place had construction poles I front of the window but the beach and the sea can still be seen so still good😊
The place was lovely, clean, and had a sea view. Everything was organised neatly and definitely worth the money.

United StatesThe location of this property is excellent with fabulous views of the beach. The apartment was very clean and well equipped and had everything we needed. We were able to get the keys for one of the apartments from the lock box which was had the code to. The other code was obtained from the restaurant next door which was easy. We highly recommend and will stay again. Margate is a nice town and this apartment was in a great position.
