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.).

South AfricaHost said she wasn’t aware that people booked. No one was made aware that we booked. There was cockroaches everywhere including in the cupboards, all over the dishes & cutlery and all over the counters. It was an instant put off. Most light bulbs were burnt out so at night there wasn’t much light. Dstv was disconnected.

South AfricaLift is rusty and out dated building on the inside. You can tell by looking on the reception and lift that it's not what you expected for the value of your money. The corridors are dark and bathrooms are very old fashioned. Especially the shower floor is dirty and terrifying I requested it to be cleaned but it was not. There are small cockroaches moving around because the bin is kept inside the room and not cleaned as long as you are there.The bedding was had bood & oil stains. Cutlery set is shot and other basic bowls, to name a few there was no frying pan, chopping board, strainer, only one knife. There was a pack of opened condoms in the kitchen cupboard. The curtains are teared & not hanged neatly, there's a broken and dirty coach. The TV was fixed on the following day because there was only a security guard on the reception who does other duties and they don't have someone else available to assist when you need help. The name of the apartment & the address is not exactly the same as the one you get online.

South AfricaPlace was in a shocking state when we arrived on the 7th. Air conditioner was not working. Cutlery was dirty and greasy. Sliding doors were broken, drawers were broken. No towels or bedding supplied apart from thin blanket. Power to the second bedroom was via an extension lead. Main room lights were switched on/off from the second bedroom. Totally unnaceptable accommodation for the price and photos are misleading as well as the description
The only plus was location.
