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 Africaa hot water bottle /or heater could make the bedroom warmer on cold days.
It's a cosy home away from home. spacious and most of the things one needs in a self-catering are provided. the host is not naggy. they are very professional and great hots. the natural sun gets into the apartment which I like very much. The apartment is spacious which helps so that you still feel at home away from your own home.

South AfricaI booked this place based on the reviews, however, the experience I had was totally different to the positive reviews from other guests. The unit is said to be spotless, however, unit 18 is not cleaned properly. The main bedroom was not clean. It had dirty marks on the wardrobe doors. Dressing table and side tables were dirty, I had to wipe them down myself. The room was dusty, had to eventually clean it myself despite reporting this to the host. Mattress protector had stains and was torn. Duvet inner was old and looked like it hadn't been changed in a while. The walls are dirty The second bedroom was stuffy and seemed like it hadn't been cleaned after the previous guests checked out. The bathroom is old , bathtub is dirty and cracked and taps rattle when you use them. The kitchen was not cleaned properly as well. Dish cloths were dirty as well as the glasses. The microwave had a build up of oil splatters and grime inside of it. I even asked that they clean the microwave and the host told me that it is caused by previous guests. The pictures are not a true reflection of the unit as it is old and not well maintained. Certainly would not recommend this accommodation to anyone.
The apartment is central and close to the mall and shopping centre. The apartment is spacious
