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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

United KingdomAfter 10 p.m., the use of common areas is restricted, including no showering or using a hair dryer. As it was nearing 10 p.m., all bathrooms were occupied, and I was waiting. There was still 1 minute left until 10 o’clock, and I was confused about whether I could use the bathroom. There is a evening, Rainner saw this and immediately opened the en-suite room door so I could use its toilet. On the morning before I checked out, everyone was using the bathroom, so I had to wait again.
I had a wonderful four-night stay here. This place is perfect for a slow-paced solo trip to relax and unwind, and it’s also a great stopover during travels. The living room and bedroom have large floor-to-ceiling windows that offer beautiful views of the houses in the small town on the outskirts of Lucerne, with snow-capped mountains in the distance. On sunny mornings, it’s very comfortable to relax on the balcony, read, work, smoke, eat, or just daydream. I originally booked only one night, but I extended my stay for three more nights. I met young people from all over the world—mature, polite, kind, good energy, interesting, and cool. I was feeling a bit down at first, but my mood was lifted by the new friends I made, my new temporary housemates. Rainer, the host, is a fabulous person. He shared his favorite treat with me—‘coconut ice cream’‘ shaved ice’. I found an album in the cabinet where he documented the house’s construction process. He creats nice introduction video, website providing some travel suggestion. In the evenings, we watched Netflix on the big TV in the living room with other cool and attractive people. Efi, who’s from Greece, was also very nice and gave me a detailed introduction to the house and its facilities when I checked in. By the way, the kitchen here is really clean and bright. It has all the cooking utensils, tableware, seasonings, and a dishwasher, making it feel just like home. It actually made me want to cook something (to be honest, I’ve never cooked in an Airbnb before—partly because Switzerland is expensive, and partly because the common areas in other places always felt a bit dirty, but not here). After 10 p.m., the use of common areas is restricted, making the place very quiet for an early night’s sleep.

GermanyThis is absolutely recommendable! At first I was a bit skeptical - mostly because of personal reasons - as I’ve never slept in a shared room with strangers before. But the stay at Ray’s truly exceeded all my expectations. The House is beautiful and super spacey. There will most likely be people around to chat with but also the possibility to have some “personal space” if that’s desired. The host is just kind of living his own life there in the midst of everything, which actually brings a super good vibe in there. When I was there, he casually had some friends dropping by for a BBQ on the terrace, which is surrounded by the most incredible view. Safe to say that I’ve never felt like “being home” so fast. 😆 I know, that he states in the description, that this stay probably would be most ideal for people that are more outgoing/extroverts; but in case you’re not, I really don’t think that should hold you back! People were really respectful. What goes the hosts, I believe they’re used to be around all kind of people and therefore they’ll quickly know just how to approach you n meet your needs during the stay. If you travel on a budget, the house also offers you the great opportunity to cook yourself - and dine with the finest view. This is’nt just a stay - it’s a unique experience!

AustraliaThe internet switches off once per month in the early morning. I was the one got so confused and was wondering why there was no internet. No panic, it will be fixed soon when the host wake up.
The host is very supportive. If you encounter some people with bad behavior, please contact the host, and do not suffer it yourself. The host will sort it out for you immediately. Also, he is trying his best to keep the share area clean. I like the quiet time (after 10 pm). If you like to go to bed early, then you don't need to worry about others having partying in the house.
