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 StatesNo evaluation is legitimate without the cons. Ours are of little consequence; it is an old reconned St. Augustine home, after all, and that’s what gives it character! My single hope is that the next time we visit is that the mattress in the bedroom nearest the bathroom is replaced. “Lizzy, it is comfortable… but it slants (compressed) downward on the right side.”
My wife and I vacationed in the second floor two-bedroom apartment, “the Elegant,” the week before Christmas. We are Florida residents and often enjoy “mini instate vacations,” so, take heed, experience yields sage evaluation. The location is quiet and minutes from any attraction… worth seeing. It is within short blocks of Michelin quality restaurants in pastoral environments. The apt. lacks no kitchen appliance or tableware. Nor does it lack thoughtful amenities. As an example, there were enough assorted bathroom towels to supply a hotel floor. Water pressure was good and hot water was near immediate and… generous. There is ample space for clothing, chests of drawers, armoires, and closet. We had coffee/cocktails on our private balcony… “bathrobe appropriate.” There is a well-marked parking space in the rear, which is 15’ from the apartment stairs. Lizzy, is a congenial host as well as accommodating. She lives the American dream.

The bed were soft and comfortable. The kitchen was gorgeous and very clean. Loved sitting on the front porch in the morning.

United StatesI would prefer to have an alarm on the doors and windows, but the area did appear to be safe enough not to worry too much about not having an alarm.
The host, Lizy, was very professional and friendly. She made it all very easy to get settled in. The place was exceptionally clean and tidy! So conveniently located to everything! We walked to most of our plans. Will definitely stay here again!

Czech RepublicThe beds were creaking so that sleeping was not much easy. Also, we haven´t noticed "hidden" substantial cleaning fee (perhaps it was be displayed sometimes just before payment) which was more than 50% of advertised rental cost. Our mistake that we usually do not look for cleaning fee as it is normally quite reasonable.
When you enter the house, you feel true history of the city. Nice, very well maintained, decent combination of old times with modern ones (kitchen, bathroom), spacious balcony great for sitting out.
