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.).

GermanyThe TV did not work. I really wanted to watch the Germany soccer game, but the TV was not connected for play. The description said the TV works…. yea, not really, but if you don’t care for TV, then book a room. Check in and out are easy and the location is pretty cool.

CanadaDon't expect to see the apartment which you see in the photos. In reality it looks different (we rented The Blue Moon room). The carpet was dirty and stained, the same story is with the mattress. There is no door between the washroom and the sleeping area. I mean if you rent this facility for two people, be prepared to share all the toilet sounds and smells with the second person))) On our checkout morning I found a bedbug on the bed. Not a pleasant moment at all. The sound isolation is poor. We were hearing every step from the apartment upstairs.
The location is really good: walkable distance to the city center, museums and cafes. The staff was responding quickly. Check-in and check-out went smoothly. There is a microwave, a good hairdryer, a coffee machine and a small fridge. The bathroom was clean when we arrived.

RomaniaIt was an unpleasant surprise to find out that the soap dispenser from bathroom was empty. We had just some shower gel. The bed linen was ripped. The neighbors were quite noisy and we couldn't rest very well. Unfortunately, even if we were announced that we will have some free water in the room, we couldn't find any.
The room was really pretty, I liked the room decoration.

BulgariaThe apartment needs renovation or at least better maintenance, the shower was leaking all the time, there are few places which were repaired poorly. There was no soap provided (only shampoo). There were lights that were not working. There are old objects all over the place left for decoration. The leather sofas were broken. There are no doors for the toilet and bathroom which could be an issue if you are not alone.
Easy check-in/out process with very clear instructions. The location is relatively OK close to a lot of shops, restraurants, etc. The flat was relatively clean.

PortugalThe surrounding was very noisy in the morning and at night. There was water dropping from the ceiling of the toilet, making the floor wet and producing noise at night. Because it was a business trip, I was very disappointed, that I did not receive an invoice or a proof of payment, even after asking via mail. The cafe on the ground floor was closed.
Overall the room was very nice, very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The location is central and the city center is in walking distance. The check-in was easy.

PortugalThe location is not ideal, as it is a bit far from the center and the main attractions from the city. Nevertheless, we never felt unsafe in any way. Considering the price we paid, I would say this is a very fair deal.
The check-in process is very easy whatever the hour you want to get into the room. Likewise, the check-out was also very simple, as we only needed to leave the keys in the room. The room was clean and very comfortable.

RomaniaHot water worked for 5 minutes. Once finished the boiler or whatever it was there in the bathroom area made noise for almost 3 hours...maybe it was heating more water, no idea but as things happened at 11:00PM we turned on some music to be able to sleep. More then annoying...
Interesting room, good space, looking pretty modern & clean. Coffee / tea available. Very good communication with the owner. Also could do an early check in as room was cleaned when we arrive in the area.

IndonesiaThe room is dimmer than that in the picture/description. The room is a lot smaller than what appears in the picture. No place for our luggage as the cupboard was full with property linen. No AC and no fan, the air circulation in the room during my stay in summer evenings was pretty terrible. It only has one window with very small opening. So, not an enjoyable rest during the night.
The location. It's in walking distance from the metro station and some main tourist attraction. Bathroom is small but very clean.

United StatesThe only issue for me was that the bathroom area had no doors which made it slightly uncomfortable at times to stay with friends.
The room was clean, spacious, and extremely comfortable. We had a coffee machine, cookies, and a kettle inside the room as well as a mini fridge. Even the room decoration was very nice. It is a 15 min walk from most places in Brussels.

United KingdomCould do with some attention to sort out a few things which were obviously not quite right, eg curtain hanging off the rail, small fridge not working, wobbly tap, dirty window. Note that the “water provided” means from the tap in the bathroom.
Beautifully designed room, comfortable and surprisingly quiet considering the buzzy central location. Fabulous bar downstairs with gorgeous cool terrace - but check opening hours online as only seems to be open Wednesday to Saturday evenings and Sunday lunchtime. Note that means more often than not self checkin so do check emails for those instructions - but that system worked fine for me.

IrelandThe room faces onto an alleyway that is quite busy – particularly first thing in the morning. There's a loading bay for a retailer (Action), so from 6am (!) they are loading and unloading pallets into the store. That's fine if you need to get up early for a flight, but if you want to have a lie-in, it's not ideal.
The room (White Lady) was beautiful, spacious, with a very comfortable bed, chairs, coffee machine and fridge and large windows – a lovely space. A bit stuffy during summer. The location is fine, but....
