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.).

TurkeySome person in the Red room (they have 3 different colors for room naming ) was sleeping with their door open, I found that weird. This is not related to place but to person :( The house is not that bad, the neighborhood is a bit shady but it was fine. I can relate to some people's similar comments about it.
room and house were fine to sleep for a couple of nights. Good kitchen downstairs if you want to cook or use the fridge during your stay. Good for value but it is hard to reach the city center by Bus, using Uber makes a lot of sense there.

United KingdomThe area around the flat is quite dodgy. Also, I was able to hear one of the other resident's voice during his virtual meetings. Maybe it was because the walls were very thin but it was difficult to focus on my work or sleep.
The room was exceptionally clean and all the furniture looked new.

PeruThe cab left us on the back side of the property and that part of the neighborhood didn’t seem very nice, but once you get inside the property is a totally different world.

Exceptional interior comfort, clean. Sketchy neighborhood but I chose this location because it was in walking distance to University of Chicago hospitals.

United StatesThe townhouse complex is very blighted and slum-like, and one must walk through the complex to get to the unit. It is very poorly lit at night and feels scary and unsafe. If you come in after 9 pm there is absolutely nowhere to park on the street. Since I couldn’t park my car, I had to forfeit my stay and go elsewhere. The property is not near the Hyde Park business district or the lake at all, in fact it isn’t even in Hyde Park. I’m used to urban environments, but charging $70 a night to share with two strangers - which isn’t clear in the booking description- in such a dysfunctional environment is, frankly, outrageous. I sent several messages to Andy via email and text which weren’t returned.
As others have noted, the unit itself was clean, updated, and in good condition. One of the other renters (Michael) was very kind and helpful when I decided to leave instead of spending the night.

United StatesNeighborhood community is bad. Many slums poor homeless and criminals running around. Guy urinated on sidewalk mid-day. My car was broken and ransacked middle of the night. Someone did steal many roadside assistance items and documents to my car. Buildings are run down not kept up. Even though it's by a university but that doesn't matter it is not a safe area. Police told me to relocate.
Private room was clean and nice inside.
