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 AfricaContrary to V's assertion, we had load shedding 3 days in a row, but she did promptly provide an emergency light after the second night. Otherwise faultless.
Very well located between shopping mall and a short drive to the beach. Loved the personal touch of all the artwork. Very compact but totally functional.

South AfricaThank you to the owner Veronica! She was kind and always available even giving us good tips on where to eat and best places to visit. The apartment is beautiful. So clean and everything we needed. We loved the view from the bedroom because we could watch the sunrise over the forest. Having fast wifi made working from home so easy. We loved watching Amazon prime and relaxing by the pool. WILL VISIT AGAIN

South AfricaThis was my second visit and it was even better than my first. The addition of two new comfy couches makes binging Netflix the best. The owner goes the extra mile and has great recommendations for restaurants etc. The swimming pool looks brand new and I love the view of the ocean while relaxing there. I highly recommend V's studio.

South AfricaThe host was very helpful after locking myself outside the house on the day 1. This was a good experience but I assisted me to know that I should not lock the door without the key in my pocket.
The arts in the house and the level of cleanliness with all the equipment that you need for the house. I was able to cook and make a lovely meal with all the pots. I was even washing some of the clothes and was able to hang them outside

South AfricaOne of the best apartments I’ve booked into. The place was clean and beautiful. I loved that the art in the apartment was painted by the owner. The paintings are beautiful. Good quality mattress in the bedroom. Wi-Fi provided with good connectivity. There were welcome drinks when I arrived which was very sweet of the owner. Excellent communication with the owner and V was always reachable on WhatsApp. The views from the bedroom are spectacular in the morning and at night. The apartment is well situated, in between the mall and the beach. Both aircons in the apartment worked well to keep the room cool during the day and warm at night.
