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 KingdomWe were running late because of hours of delays on M6 and I was getting a bit stressed out because of the high late check-in cost. I kept the property informed of the delays but it was clearly not going to affect incurring the charge. Luckily we made it on time!
The property was just what we needed for a stopover. The lovely lady who greeted us was particularly welcoming, friendly and warm. She even found me a bottle opener when we realised there wasn’t one.

United KingdomNeeds a few more practical things - somewhere to hang towels in the bathroom and a shelf under the mirror would be useful. Bit short on mugs and no tea towel to dry them after washing. A toaster maybe as we wanted to do some breakfast. We couldn't get on with the shower...but that could be just us?!!
Very well decorated and furnished. Spacious and comfortable. Definitely value for money for our overnight stay.

Ease of parking and access to Edinburgh via train station across the road. The apartment was exactly as per photos, very comfy and full of style with a nice welcome basket :)

NetherlandsThis was not a loft (high ceilings, big windows)!!! This was an attic. With very bad internet connection. It was not Marrakech style. There were only some souvenirs, perhaps from Marrakech, in a very old British interior. That doesn’t make a Marakech style. The attic was poorly maintained. I don’t like to be deceived.

CanadaVery strategic location , the apartment is a stone throw away from Lanark but also there is a convenient railway station at door step and me and my husband and toddler went to see Edinburgh Zoo during our visit to Scotland . Would definitely stay way. The kitchen was well equipped and we managed to enjoy a proper breakfast thanks to that

United KingdomTired decor. Needs a good clean, dusty and dirty. Had to wash plates etc before using them. Described as "mountain view"!! This overlooks a big railway yard with lots of trains and noise through the night, oddly that wasn't mentioned in the description!! No dining table, only a small side table....but 4 dining chairs. Not kitted out well at all. 10 dinner plates and 1 cereal bowl plus cheap picnic cutlery. When the mugs are from Sports Direct you've really hit rock bottom. WiFi barely worked. Bed uncomfortable. Putting a few cushions on the floor does not make a Marrakesh style!!! Will definitely not use again!
Not much to say here!

United KingdomNo welcome pack. When I asked about milk and coffee they said coffee was there(it definitely was not). However when we got home later there were 2 bottles of water and sachets of coffee so they clearly knew .They said they dont provide milk cos they are vegan. The stairs up to the apartment are quite tricky. The oven needed cleaning . Just glad we were only in it for a quick overnight. We go to that area regularly and stay over. Very disappointing
