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 KingdomPublic parking is a considerable distance away and pulling luggage on cobbled streets is not an easy task, recommendation would be to use a taxi to take you to the location or to use the parking facility available at the apartment.
The apartment was in a perfect location - the room itself was equipped with all necessities - Juan was very helpful - the absolute highlight is the roof terrace which is amazing and gives a personal view of the Alhambra. Will definitely return

Excellent location with fabulous views of the Alhambra from the roof terrace. Our host, Juan, was extremely helpful and the optional extras - particularly breakfast was really lovely. Our studio room was small, but comfortable and spotlessly clean. The other staff members we met were really helpful too.

The apartments are really well positioned, within a short walk of the top attractions. The views of the Alhambra from the roof terrace were a big attraction for us but we hadn’t realised just how amazing they would be. Breakfast overlooking the Alhambra was a real treat and the breakfasts were generous and good. Juan and Nacho were super friendly and helpful including offering advice, recommending places to eat and drink and ordering a taxi to take us back to the train station. The rooms themselves are spacious, comfortable, well-equipped and clean. There are ample supplies of coffee, fruit etc provided in reception.

IrelandThis is not a criticism of these apartments, just advice that this area is part of the old town that was not designed for cars, so parking and driving around there is very difficult; especially in a medium to large car. The upside of this is that walking around these old streets is so interesting, with so much to see and do. Just beware if you are trying to get there in a large car to possibly leave it elsewhere. Juan was very helpful with this also and has great knowledge of the location and went above and beyond to help make sure we got in and out safely. There was nothing about the apartments that we didn't like.
The location is excellent, with the terrace providing one the best views of the Alhambra. What a lovely place to relax and to eat your breakfast, which by the way we found to be very good quality and good value too. Juan and his staff were all so helpful when we needed them and yet provided such a relaxing environment that it felt like we were guests in his house and he looked after us like we were old friends. He is very knowledgeable about the area too and was happy to tell us about the place. His communication was excellent throughout with a very personal approach. His English is excellent also which was great as my Spanish is not unfortunately..... The building itself is built around the very old stone walls of Granada. The structure is interesting and well done and the rooms are well equipped with all you would need for a stay in Granada. We especially liked the attention to detail all around, including in the rooms, with shutters providing an authentic feel and making it fully dark if you wanted it to be, allowing you to sleep in if you needed. There was complimentary fresh fruit, tea and coffee with a coffee machine and kettle in the room, as well as cooking facilities if you needed them. We didn't use them much, as we were in Granada and as so, made the most of the tapa culture, with most bars providing some tapas with every round of drinks. And there are endless amounts of restaurants in the city with what seems to be every type of cuisine covered.

United KingdomIt wasn’t a problem for us but the Albaicin area is very old with narrow cobbled streets and driving to the apartment would be difficult. We parked in the San Cristobal car park which was very easy to find, secure and made for stays of up to a week. The walk down to the apartment was about 15 minutes although you could take a taxi and get closer.
In the Albaicin area with excellent views of the Alhambra from the terrace - view was better than from the viewing point higher up the hill! Very atmospheric area. Apartment was in old property with part of the old city wall incorporated in it. Juan was very welcoming, informative and helpful. Apartment was well equipped, clean and comfortable. We had an excellent stay and would definitely return if in Granada.

United StatesNot really a complaint, but just be prepared to climb a big hill and then a few flights of stairs, in the heat, at the end of any outing. But it’s worth it to stay in the old part of town.
Beautiful place in a fun location. Great views. Spacious room.

AustraliaFrom the bus stop from the train station it is a reasonably challenging walk with luggage up to the apartmentos (for old people like us). We left by taxi which Juan arranged and which was much easier.
A wonderful host Juan (and his associate) offered advice and assistance on everything to ensure we had a great stay (getting about, local eateries, transport). Good coffee, tea and even some fruit were provided free. Our apartment had a view onto the street below which was good for people watching. The view from the breakfast terrace has spectacular views of the Alhambra (which entrance is a 20 minute walk away).
