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 KingdomAbsolutely no idea why the person who was there refused to acknowledge that we had booked in spite of the overwhelming evidence & was refusing us entry until I regrettably had to get a bit aggressive. The guys who turned up after were lovely & apologetic but a bit of communication would have prevented the situation.
Excellent location for our purposes & a really good apartment for a longer stay than one night. Genuinely would book this in so many places we have stayed before if it was an option.

United KingdomI wanted to be close to the station as I was arriving pretty late but still felt a bit unsure walking to find the place on my own after dark.
Host couldn’t have been more helpful. I texted at 11.15 at night when I clocked I had forgotten my hairdryer and he went out to tescos to buy me one that night! It was a clean and comfortable studio appt. The fan was great on a hot June night. And wifi worked really well.

United KingdomIt’s not acceptable that we paid £115 for one single night to come into the house with dirty cutlery, dirty sink, no handle on the toilet, towel rack a hazard as it fell off, other utensils missing for example no spoons, faulty front door when trying to lock and unlock, no central heating just a small heater upstairs therefore not heating downstairs area and only just about heated the upstairs room. This is me formally asking for 40-50% refund on our booking as it was not up to the standard as expected online. I hope this brings you to make some changes. We do Thankyou for the last minute booking but this was still a complete let down. Aleeshya hooper 20/12/23-21/12/23

United KingdomDo not know where this world is heading to with gread, & our eager to make as much easy money as possible. As many other guests complaind about the rude behaviour of manager, we have been told off very rudely when asked to compensate us for not hot water, no blinds on windows on the ceiling. So it was like mid day at 3 o clock in the morning because of British summer, and manager says no one else complained about it before. God please help us !
Do not like anything , never again Very run down area. No parking No hot water. Kitchen not clean. Dirty carpet specialy on stairs.
