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 KingdomJust a couple of little niggles - some of the blinds in the flat do not close properly and need replacing, TV did not work as batteries in the remote were dead and there were no spares. Reserved parking spot is underground, which was not clear from the instructions. Spaces are quite tight, and there is not much height clearance when parking.
Our second stay. Great location overlooking the marina, short walk into town centre. Flat is clean, comfortable and spacious (1 double, 1 twin, 2 bathrooms, kitchen / lounge / dining room and balcony). Oven as well as hob, microwave, fridge, dishwasher. Bed linen & towels provided, plus shower gel etc and coffee / tea / sugar. Free parking just opposite.

United KingdomArrival Instructions were a little vague. For example, tell people that the allotted parking space is in the basement, that outside entry to the flats is via the little disc on the key chain, and that the apartment is on the 5th floor (though there is a lift). TV remote not working. Noise from restaurant staff on ground floor of block late at night.
Lovely spacious and well-equipped apartment and fantastic location right opposite the Arena. Very comfortable. Lovely view, only of the marina, not the beach, as advertised. Good WiFi. Lift.

United KingdomWe went to check in at 4.30 but the key wasn’t in the key safe, I had to call the manager who let me know the cleaner was still in the flat and they then brought the key out. The instructions for the building are quite vague as there are lots of flats and buildings in the area. There also wasn’t anything to tell us the flat was on floor 5. Parking instructions were also very vague, you have to use the fob to open the shutters to go to the basement of the car park - I found this out by reading reviews rather than instructions from the property manager. The flat needed a bit of TLC, it wasn’t particularly clean, had quite a few light bulbs not working, bathroom extractor fans not working and was missing things like batteries for remotes, empty hand soap and used open toiletry bottles in the showers, and all of the blinds were broken.
The location, view and size of the apartment and bedrooms was great.

United KingdomFirst of all, the instructions to finding the property were non existent. We assumed it would be in the same block as where the key was. We walked round for ages wasting time until we found someone to help us. The car park instructions were also poor. It didn’t say to go to the bottom floor and use the key fob to open the shutters. The twin bedroom is very basic. There is no mirror and the lighting is poor. The bathroom lighting is very dull too. There is no toaster in the kitchen which is an essential appliance. Most of the blinds were broken and looked very untidy.
The apartment was amazing! Spacious, clean and a great location. We had a great weekend and we would stay again.

United KingdomCollecting keys from their 'hiding' place is not that easy. There are limited places to pull in to access the key boxes, which are a little way from the flat. Parking although free is not close to the flat, but over the road and quite difficult to access, so if you are bringing provisions, or find difficulty walking long distances, it's a long way to transport. We parked in the car park next to the flat on Trawler Road, which cost £5 a day. There is a lift to the flat, however you need to climb several steps to get to the front door. There is a car park under the building and we have surmised that if you had access to this car park the lift would take you straight from the car park to the flat. We were puzzled as to why the flat parking was not provided underneath the building, opening this lovely flat up to disabled/wheelchair users. There is no ordinary toaster in the property. A sandwich toaster is supplied, but you can't do your morning toast in this. There was insufficient cutlery for 4 people and only 1 frying pan, 1 large saucepan and 1 'rusty' looking oven tray, so self catering was difficult. We could not afford to eat out every night. There are no instruction manuals for the equipment available in the flat or a welcome folder with information. These are small things that do not take too much time to correct. The double bedroom shown in the Booking.com info shows access on both sides of the bed. This is not the case and access to the left side is very limited due to an overlarge bedside cabinet on the right side pushing the bed very close to the wall. Squeezing down the small gap, with a 'gammy' leg, (as I could not climb over the bed), was difficult each night.
Large flat. Lovely view. Good heating. Access to a small supermarket is very close, as are pubs and eateries. There were a number of small problems, which I have detailed below. Should the owners consider correcting these the stay would have been improved.

United KingdomDescription was given for where to collect the keys. But not that the apartment itself was in a different building. No directions were given for where the flat was. So had to phone and got given a confusing set of instructions for how to locate the property. Eventually found it about 20 minutes later. A clear map with where the keys were located and where the property was would have helped immensley! Facilities were a bit basic and a few things lacking. Would have liked to have had a Caftiere coffee maker and a toaster! Also the refridgerator was turned off when we arrived and there were no tablets for the dishwasher. Blinds in the living room were damaged and missing so couldn't be closed all the way. But overall it was very good, but just a few things missing that would have made it an excellent place to stay.
Excellent location, close to the seaside and centre of town. A lovely big apartment with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Comfy lounge and bedroom. Very clean. Lovely view of the balcony.
