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.).

AustraliaThere was only 1 set of keys (one key needed for access to building & different key needed to access the flat) which made it difficult with 3 people leaving and returning to the flat at different times. Host unable to supply a second set of keys. And no microwave. Otherwise everything was excellent.

CanadaFaint smell of cigarette or vape smoke
The location was outside Edinburgh but the #11 bus was close as well as Tram a short walk away by grocery store. Very convenient. Beds were super comfortable and showers nice. Washer and dryer handy as well had been travelling for several weeks. There was no hair dryer, so we bought one and left behind for others to use. I don’t pack hair dryer on vacation! We wish there was a microwave. Nespresso machine only. No coffee maker. My only issue was that there was a faint smell of cigarette smoke. It wasn’t terrible but may concern others.

Apartment was amazing! We stayed in 9 apartments over 9days and this was the first and the best! Stunning apartment, beautifully put together. Owner definitely has an eye for design which we really appreciated. Nice artwork and mood lighting (everything aligned!) Acoustic panels everywhere for good sound absorption. Beds were really comfy. Apartment was huge, clean and lots of parking nearby. We really loved our stay here, highly recommend!

United StatesCould use a bench at the door for putting on and taking off shoes. I don't like to wear outdoor shoes into the apt. The table could go into the corner of the hall. That's my only suggestion!
Very quiet and lovely. Great place for a timeout before flying home. Restful and peaceful.
