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 KingdomThe bathroom floor was very slippery when wet. A warning notice would be a good idea. The road right below the flat was very noisy and busy even with the windows closed Some wine glasses and a small sharp knife in the kitchen would be good. Somewhere to recycle and some hooks to hang coats in the flat would be good additions.
The flat was clean and well appointed with a comfortable double bed and a sofa bed that was comfortable for one person. The walk in shower was large and easy to use The flat was in walking distance to shops and a pub right opposite

New ZealandSome basics like milk sachets would have been nice to start us off after a long flight. Has a coffee machine, so some coffee pods would have been good to go with this instead of the instant yucky coffee. And some washing powder sachets so we could use the washing machine on arrival. A few little things would make such a difference. Bathroom needs the heating fixed as quite cold in there. Heated towel rail broken. Also no plug near a mirror to use hairdryer.
Location. walking distance to the shops and cafes. Car park just across the road.

United KingdomI cannot find fault with the accommodation, location or management company.
It was excellent value for money. Spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Very much a home from home. The responsiveness of the staff was terrific and it was a pleasure to deal with them throughout.

United KingdomYou could hear the neighbours every now and then arguing with a child in the background screaming. Shower was blocked which meant the water seeps out onto the carpet, a slight smell but nothing major! Just throw a towel down by the door. No aerial on the tv.
Nice and clean, also a good location for being in the town centre.

NetherlandsA bath mat was needed around the shower area. We bought one and then donated it to our daughter. As the weather was unexpectedly hot a fan would have been handy.
Modern, clean and quiet apartment. Kitchen area is well equipped. In easy reach of many shops, cafes and a park. A visit to the lock is a must.

As Iam short the shower head is too high up and could not rinse the shampoo all out my hair . Could not get the cold to run in the shower . There is no way you could shower a child without them getting burnt . So only had one shower in the 3 days could only have a wash

United KingdomSofa bed uncomfortable. Had to buy cover for the duvet for the sofa bed. TV aerial not working - hopefully it will be fixed soon. Could watch Netflix but BBC iPlayer and ITV player couldn’t connect. Heating appeared to be on, on the hottest day of the year so far and couldn’t switch it off (think I may have broken it). Mirror in bathroom is upside down for some reason we couldn’t fathom. All issues reported. It’d be interesting to discover when / if they are fixed
Modern and spacious, nice kitchen and bathroom. Decent sized bedroom. A few niggles in the didn’t like section, but don’t let them put you off. It’s a really nice property.

United KingdomWe arrived at the property to find it unclean, the bedding unchanged and dirty. There was nobody around to help us as it is managed my a remote company. We left immediately and had to find alternative accommodation. We contacted the company but were only refunded less than half what we paid.
Nothing. Unfit for stay.

Spaina couple too many little lights from all the electronics at night. They are pretty shiny and light up the room a bit too much (But still an amazing place to stay and would come back any time)

United KingdomThe light in the stairwell did not work which was outright dangerous, we had to go up and down using lights on our phones. The communal areas were all filthy and obviously had not been cleaned in a long time. The shower did not work properly, we couldn't get it to work at all so had to phone to be told you have to push your whole body weight into to the tap to get it to turn on and off. We were told previous guests had also complained about this so it seems to have been broken for a while and they have not bothered to fix. The apartment looks nice in the photos but has been poorly fitted in reality and lack basic amenities you would expect when stating in a flat like this.
The location was convenient.

United KingdomThere was no where to hang clothes as the wardrobe was full of duvets. No bed side tables so water and phone on the floor. And the marbled floor in the bathroom was very slippery coming out of the shower. Maybe a bath Matt would be a safer option.
Really nice apartment, light and windows that you could open. Nice layout and all mod cons
