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 KingdomCheck in was odd; had to queue with customers buying coffee and cake in the cafe. We didn't expect the amount of steps to apartment 2. Beds and pillows were sadly uncomfortable, and single beds squeaky. Kitchen is not "fully equipped" as described - no oven glove, no dishcloth, only one tea towel, knives were blunt, no potato masher, no grater, not even salt and pepper pots. Oven tray hadn't been cleaned prior to our using it. Never stayed in a self catering apartment so poorly equipped and which is in need of some repair and renovation. No information about wifi (only spotted on this site when we came to review). No leaflets or any useful information for visitors. Toilet was slightly leaky, water leaking from somewhere into a bowl housing a houseplant on bathroom windowsill. Dust webs from lounge ceiling. Not what we expected from a large business that owns several pubs in the town. Grass had not been mowed in garden. Yes, it's been very rainy but looks like it hasn't been touched since last year. Spotted a live woodlouse on the bed after getting out of bed on the final morning. Husband said he had seen several during our two nights' stay. Photos do not include the kitchen of apartment 2. The short staircase leading from the kitchen to the lounge and bedrooms has no handrail; there are however some hot pipes which could be mistaken for a handrail by a child.
We want to include some positives. Location was excellent and accommodation was quite cosy and very warm. Nice lounge. This could have so much potential if much more care and attention paid to small details.

United KingdomThere was rubbish on the floor of the apartment the fabric on sofas and a scatter cushion were dirty. There was no tea towel to dry up and no cloth to wipe tabes etc. The internet was not working and being with a teenager as you can imagine they were not happy, not that they are on there phone lots but it did say internet was provided, so we could not connect to the Netflix via smart tv to have our movie night. I have four children and we give doing presents at Christmas. It was time for my daughter and me to have some fun away from our reality… it’s not the end of the world but it was a little disappointing.

United KingdomAlthough clean, bedding, bathroom, kitchen, in desperate need of addressing damp/crumbling plaster and some TLC could be an amazing little find!!
Great position, far enough away from the clock tower. Although lots of steps, manageable. Cafes and bars with restaurants all close by.

NetherlandsThe apartment was not clean. It also has not been cleaned for a long time. Almost everything is worn and maintenance is very poor. Upon arrival there was chattered glass on the kitchen table and chairs. Cigarette ends in the hallway. Dirty bath (hair from previous guests), dirty bathroom, dirty floors and dirty carpet. Dirty windows. Mould in the bathroom. Dust everywhere. The toilet leaks water when you flush it. There are strong signs that it has been leaking for longer. The drain of the bathroom sink emptied slowly. The drain of the bathtub was badly clogged. All chairs, couches and the stools have worn or damaged leather. From the 7 doors, only 2 where closing and locking as they should be. The front door has a (not very secure) lever tumbler lock. It is supposed to be a self-catering appartement but there was not much stuff that we could use. No dishwashing soap, no dishwashing brush, no dishcloth, no tea towels, no kitchen towels and no toilet cleaner. Only a few plates, glasses and mugs. No bread knife and no coffee machine. The bed was as hard as rock.
The fridge was large and had a freezer. The oven worked well.

United KingdomIt was not clean, too large for a single traveler. Curtains falling off in places, carpet scruffy, not inviting didn’t include breakfast- I would have preferred breakfast to such a big flat. No cleaning. Kitchen hot tap didn’t work on the first day. Only one kitchen cloth and no kitchen paper.
