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 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.).

AustraliaAlthough I was aware of the fifth-floor apartment without a lift and had two big men in the family, it was challenging to bring suitcases up and down and climb those narrow, winding stairs daily. Additionally, people could see into our apartment as our window only had a sheer curtain, and due to the door location of the next-door apartment, they had to walk past our window to get to theirs.
The location and size of the apartment were excellent. Efficient communication and helpful staff enhanced the overall experience.

United KingdomThese are really minor points, but a bin or box in the kitchen for recycling would be handy, and a shelf in the shower to put your toiletries. These things would be helpful, but did not impact our stay :) .

United KingdomThe toaster kept tripping the electricity up, unsure about how the cooker worked. As we were a group of 4 staying for a 5 nights we needed extra towels and toilet paper. The stairs are a bit annoying as if you forget something you have to walk all the way back up, but was very good exercise. If someone suffers from body pains etc, arthritis or muscle pains, this probably wouldn’t be very suited for you, also not for families with children.
The property is spacious size, is in a great location with lots of restaurants and shops local, and the beach is within walking distance. There is air conditioning, and fans available to use. The shower room is nice, and there is utilities such as fridge, microwave, toaster etc. And free Wi-Fi. Love that we have our own balcony section aswell.

United KingdomOur windows opened up onto other people's, and often they had their windows open and they can clearly see into the apartment, unless you close the curtains. This unfortunately made the apartment feel clostophopbic even though it was spacious, and a couple of us struggled with feeling dizzy in the apartment, not sure if this was the building in general or apartment. You can hear the low rumble of the metro under the building which is frequent, which is a struggle if you have sensory issues.
The grey apartment (2 bed, 2 x singles) that we stayed in was spacious and clean. You can't hear the noise from the streets below, but there is some doors and people moving around in other apartments that you can hear. The stairs weren't actually too bad. Great to have a washing machine. Good shower and beds were good. The location is brilliant as it's so central and the metro is a 2 min walk.

CanadaThe hosts need to HIGHLIGHT (it is currently hidden) in the listing that this apartment is on the 5th floor of a tall building, and not suitable for families with young children. We have a one year old and had a very difficult time staying here: - we were not provided the apartment in the listing, which was on one floor. Instead we were provided an apartment split on two levels, at the top top floor of the building. - carrying all our luggage up with baby in hand was extremely difficult - bringing stroller up and down the stairs everyday - there is a club on the 3rd floor of this building - no door on second floor bedroom, which leads straight to the stairs. We had to rent a baby gate from a third party. - baby cot provided does not have a mattress. We had to DIY one with blankets. When we booked, we alerted the host that we would be here for our honeymoon with our young child. They should have warned us!!!
VERY central location! And the apartment itself was clean and spacious. Beautiful balcony and rooftop views. Great spot for young people with no kids!
