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 KingdomNothing Really.
Brilliant location and had everything we needed. Stayed in the Duplex and had asked not to be opposite the large hotel but that was not possible. To be honest it was fine. We got the sun on the terraces pretty much all day which was great. It so close to bars, shops, restaurants and beach. Also close to bus stop for airport and tram stop to visit adjoining towns.

IrelandPullout shade over outdoor area would be a great advantage
Great 2 bed apartment across the road from Central Market. Within easy walking distance of Alicante centre, beach and marina. Great outdoor area for breakfast dining, gets too warm with no shaded area from lunch time. Lovely again late evening when it gets cooler for having everything drinks. Really comfy beds. Very spacious apartment with doors to separate each area so no noise if people move around while others sleep.

If this apartment was a hotel it would be 5 Star. Everything about this apartment is luxury. There is an open plan living area with lounge, dining table, and fully equipped kitchen, including coffee maker. There is a downstairs toilet hidden behind a “secret” door. Upstairs there is the bedroom and bathroom and plenty of wardrobe space and the safe deposit box. There are two terraces one off of the bedroom with 2 relaxing chairs and a table and chairs it also has an electric awning. Downstairs there is a larger terrace with 2 sun loungers and a table and 4 chairs. Off of this terrace is the laundry room with washing machine and drying rack. All the fixtures and fittings are quality and the apartment is well maintained. Location is excellent being opposite the Central Market and it is about a 10 minute walk from the sea front. I really recommend this apartment.

United KingdomIt would have been good to have proper sun umbrellas on the terrace as it became so hot and some shelter would have been great. More water pressure in the showers would have been good - but this is just a minor complaint.
The flat was gorgeous and in a great location! It was also very clean and was cleaned twice during our 2 week stay. It was quiet with very good air conditioning and comfortable beds. It was also very spacious and looks exactly like the photos. The parquet flooring was so beautiful - this was throughout the flat ( with the exception of the bathrooms, of course)- it gave the apartment such a luxe feel.

United KingdomNothing really. Although, might be useful to supply a proper patio umbrella for some shade on the terrace, as it gets really warm just after lunchtime.
Everything. Extremely spacious apartment, with plenty of room on the terrace to sit out and eat or to sit in the sun. Air conditioning excellent, as were all the kitchen facilities. Plenty cutlery and crockery. Loads of storage space for clothes etc. We had the two bed room apartment, as the other duplex was booked on the dates we required. Duplex has two terraces (Upstairs and down stairs, which are both larger). However, our terrace was more than enough for both of us. The sun tends to hit the terrace just after midday and then you have it for the rest of the day. Having two showers/bathrooms was great. Location was top notch! Beachfront 10 minutes away, and can be accessed by walking out of apartment and walking down any of the streets on your left or right. Hundreds of bars and restaurants with 5 - 10 minutes walk. Something for everyone. Central market is directly across the road. There are lots of different stalls selling all varieties of produce at perfectly reasonable prices. I'd suggest getting fruit and veg from there. Particularly, the local varieties of tomatoes. Also, locally produced wines, not available in supermarkets, for 5/6 euro a bottle. They are excellent. Lots of great wee tapas bars for authentic tapas in the market. For things like beer, milk, snacks etc, there are several supermarkets within 5-10 minutes walk. There are bakeries in the market, but there are a couple outside, Panadería del Mercado (side street to left of market) or La Masa de Tomasa II, which does superb cakes (turn right at entrance of apartment and head towards Supercor express supermarket).

The apartment far exceeded our expectations with more facilities than listed, including plenty of thoughtful extras. There was no skimping on towels, toilet rolls, dishwasher tabs, etc. The kitchen had a number of basics, including olive oil, a variety of salts, vinegars, etc. The indoor market opposite was one of our favourites. The abundance and variety of fish meant that several evenings we cooked our own feasts, enjoying sitting on the lower terrace, having made full use of the well equipped kitchen. Getting out of bed and wandering on to upper terrace for breakfast was perfect. Up in the sky with the swifts swooping in all directions.

United KingdomNo major issues – the wifi is excellent in the main living area of the beautiful apartment but very weak in the master bedroom. This isn't a showstopper, just a recommendation for improvement.
The apartment is beautifully decorated, with a very comfortable bed in the main bedroom. The air conditioning was a blessing, and the lift was a convenient bonus. The host was fantastic, accommodating both an early check-in and a late check-out. Christina provided excellent food recommendations. The apartment had plenty of towels. The biggest plus of this great apartment is its location and views. It is right opposite the markets, and everything is within a 7-9 minute walk. The views, especially the sunset, are amazing, and in the morning, it's a beautiful suntrap for breakfast on the terrace. We highly recommend this apartment.

United KingdomThe only fault was the shower, no power, and this needs to be sorted. When you pay the money you expect a good shower. Unfortunately, the host Cristina gave us the incomplete entrance code. Apparently, the code is followed by a hash key. We had no option but to call her out. She said she had a migraine. However, she showed her annoyance at being called out even though it was her fault.

United KingdomEverything about this property is amazing. It’s absolutely huge, and so are the two balconies/terraces. You’ll find everything you need here, including toiletries, hairdryer, 2 safes, washing machine, TV with Netflix, sun loungers and more! There is a bathroom with toilet on the top floor where you’ll find the bedroom, and a toilet on the bottom floor where you’ll find the kitchen and lounge area. The apartment is located on the 6th floor (right at the top of the property) but there is a lift, so no need to worry about taking the stairs to the apartment. This is by far one of the best apartments I have ever stayed in. I could live here and did not want to leave. I find it hard to believe that there are many other apartments in Alicante that can beat this place. Don’t think about booking it. Book it!! You will love it!!

United KingdomIt's another floor to ceiling IKEA flat. Which sadly doesn't reflect the local culture and has an overall cheapness about it. Could have brought some local brands from local stores. The kitchen knives are blunt, toaster is tiny, and utensils mostly plastic. Blankets are polyester. Plastic dining chairs very uncomfortable. Sad such little effort was put into such an amazing space.
The size of the flat is exceptional, with the wall of windows and two terraces it is a fantastic space Situated above the Mercado underground station, with an airport bus stop across the road and a short 10 minutes walk to the main line station as well as department stores the location is excellent.
