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.).

United KingdomSome of the cooking pots are not compatible with the induction hob. The blinds in the bedroom don't block a lot of light in the morning if you are sensitive to that.
Very nice flat in a good location, close to Canning Town station. Spacious and clean with a well equipped kitchen. The host warned us the second shower was difficult to use, we couldn't get it to work, but we were all fine using the other one.

United KingdomThere were a couple of cleaning issues & some of the pans in the kitchen were quite rusty & small, we were a group of 4 so it was difficult to cook everything we needed at once.
Excellent location & price. The apartment is spacious and modern, comfortable beds. Loved the balcony.

United KingdomLuxury was slightly over exaggerated. It was adequate and we were comfortable but lacking in attention to detail. There were 4 of us staying and the couch was uncomfortable and not big enough for all of us. The bathroom mirror was dirty and some general Maintenance was required
The location was superb. The parking and the staff were brilliant. Communication with the owner was easy with quick responses, they gave me really good advise. I loved the fact everything was provided including spices tea coffee and toiletries

NetherlandsThe bathroom wasn't as clean as I would have liked it to be. But nothing I can't live with.
I liked that it was a spacious apartment relatively close to the underground and an event location where we were going. The price was also excellent. I needed a place to stay overnight, and hotels in the area were really expensive.

United KingdomNot too much, didn't seem to be any bins around, just some small buckets. Opening the dishwasher felt like it was going to break the kickboard. Seemed to be a few ants in one of the bathrooms.
The location was fantastic for what we wanted. Really close to the Canning Town station which is 2 stops over from the Excel centre. It is also about 5 minutes away from a supermarket, and a small area with a bunch of restaurants, and a great view, especially at night.

United KingdomThe toilets didn’t flush properly, we were alerted to an issue with the shower which seemed ok, but the toilets were incredibly difficult to flush if they flushed at all, one bed was far too low to the ground and really difficult to have a comfortable sleep in, the other bed had a better frame but the mattress was old and sagged in the middle.
The location and living area was fantastic, two bedrooms and two bathrooms were really useful

United KingdomThe direction and detail on how to access the property could have been clearer. There were 2 entrances and I spent 10 minutes trying to access the wrong entry. The property could have been amazing but there were a few basic things that were frustrating. Most the saucepans were rusty so I did not want to use them, some basic stuff like such as a jug drainer were not included. Also blinds in all the room would not close so woken up early by sunlight not good when competing. Apartment was not very clean found and lots of washing was left on balcony. In fairness owner was responsive just frustrating as it wasn’t cheap and most of the issues were easy to address.
The property location was great my son was there for a swimming competition and it was super easy to get to the Olympic park. Just 2 stops on the tube less then 30 mins door to door. Also loads of places to eat and shop so location was good.

United KingdomThe TV didn't work so we had to hook up our laptop to the tv to watch programmes. On arrival, all of the towels were still wet from being washed. The apartment was quite clean but the standard of the finish re decor ( for example walls not painted properly, mirror in the main bathroom was damaged) was ok but not a great look. The beds were extremely uncomfortable particularly the futon bed. There was no washing up liquid to clean up after meals so we had to buy some and there were a couple of cigarette butts on the balcony. There was a lack of restaurants/places to eat nearby (although the Italian round the corner was great) so it was a good walk to find anywhere to eat in the evening.
The location was quite good for us as we were working at the ExCel for a few days so it was only a 10-15 minute walk to the venue. Obtaining the keys was quite straight forward.
