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.).

HungaryYou can't park in front of the house, because the market vendors unload at dawn. The street is not very trustworthy, it is littered. However, this did not spoil our mood, we would go back.
It is close to the city center, wonderful corridor, nice, tidy, well-equipped rooms. Kettle and tea, mineral water prepared. Double soundproof curtains. Equipped bathroom, bidet. Symbolic but delicious breakfast in a nearby cafe.

PolandNothing actually to point out.
The communication with the host was excellent, we have received all necessary advices on how to get to the location, where to park our car. The public parking is just around the corner. The host waited for us in front of the building for easy finding the apartment. The rooms were very comfortable, equipped with a small fridge, security box, water, kettle, tea, towels, toiletries. Beds were comfortable. What is also an advantage of the apartment is the location - close to the city center, walking distance to the Catania cathedral, Teatro Bellini and different restaurants and bars. It is a great place to explore Catania.

AustraliaAccess to the facility was a little difficult due to markets being located directly out front of the building in the street below. The markets are there up until 1pm - so arrival is easier after that time. There was no noise heard from the market set up or dismantle. Markets included fresh fruit & veg, shoes and clothing etc.
The host appears to own or manage the entire floor of the building. Rooms were side by side, well equipped and clean. Ideal if travelling in group or with family.

Czech RepublicProperty is old, not very maintained, location is nothing you travel for. But the vibe of the local life is there I guess authentic.
Location is above busy cheasy market. The place was quiet just between 2-6 AM. We also didn't understand this part of the city as safe. But the place was okay so far. Price/value balance was acceptable.

United KingdomThings are a bit worn though not critical. We could hear the noise from the market outside and from the corridor, though it didn't bother us too much.
Amazing location - close to the shopping streets, attractions, supermarkets and the station. Great size of the room and handy tables and chairs.

RomaniaYou need to sleep with AC on, and the evacuation is inside in a canister. You get used to it.
The room was clean, the staff really helpful and offering tips. The position is good and yes in the morning there is a bazar on the streets, not annoying, I even bought some linen shirts and pants at really good prices. The breakfast was really good across the street, one coffee or chocolate milk and two patisserie pieces.

SpainIt was very difficult to enter the building and there were many steps to follow with very unclear descriptions. The host appeared 3h later than what he had said and made us pay the room at his own desired time. The location is not very comforting and as young adults we felt very unsafe. The breakfast was a piece of paper where we had to go to a bar and order there (only available for the stay in the hotel a piece of bakery and one thing to drink). The worst thing was probably the location and the entrance to the building because of the sketchy neighbourhood. Everyday there is a market happening right under the room, meaning there is a lot of fuss and no peace and quiet. The cheapness is not worth it! SPEND SOME EXTRA MONEY ON A BETTER PLACE AND YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT
The room was okay

United StatesPictures lie. Flat sits smack in the middle of a rough neighborhood with men shouting, fighting, and staring at my girls like wolves as we excited their hood. Being former military, the area appeared controlled at every corner by groups of males posting as watchmen and shouting to the next group of men as we passed through their turf. Not a place to relax and enjoy. The property manager was not on site at check-in, instructions sent vie WhatsApp
The description and fancy picture of coffee and breakfast... but that is outside, through the roughneck groups of men lingering on every corner, and two blocks away.

AustraliaThere was some noise from the street during the night.
The location was perfect, so close to the main centres of town, amazing squares and restaurants. Alessandro was the perfect host and went out of his way to help us with parking (you cannot drive or park as there are markets on in the street) and then organised a car for very early pickup for airport. The service alone deserves a 10! Room was spotlessly clean with comfortable bed, it was so lovely to have tea and coffee making in the room.
