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 KingdomCustomer service was lacking unfortunately, so a few queries were left unanswered. Also, the flat had lots of cupboards and shelves and knicknacks which made it look good but were unnecessary for a short stay. On the other hand, the ventilation in the bathroom never worked, the heating never came on (the main room was at the right temperature, but the bathroom was cold), there was no dishcloth to dry the dishes. Also, the view on each side was poor, but that's often the case in cities.
City centre location, clean studio flat

United KingdomCouldn't really let light into the living room because of how close it was to the main road. Some dead bugs and spiders in the bathroom, the terrace wasn't clean so not really useable unless we had cleaned it ourselves. Not the host's fault but another tenant had parked a large bike in the narrow hallway right outside our door, so it was difficult to get in and out of the property, especially while carrying suitcases.
It was a good stay for a couple of nights! The location is good, the bed was comfy and there was good cooking supplies, which was ideal for the weekend. Easy to collect keys.

United KingdomWe did phone the management service to try and get direction, as we were struggling originally. A man answered and said he was busy and put me to answer service. I left a voicemail, and he never got back to me. Fortunately we found it 5 minutes afterwards.The cooker could do with some instructions. We figured it out, but the hob only works if the oven timer is running. Also there was no shower gel and shampoo provided. Also the hair dryer advertised in the listings wasn't present.
Very smart, modernised well presented accommodation. Bag of nails, couple of doors down, is an excellent quirky pub. Cooker and fridge will save you a bit, with brekkie the next morning. We did brekkie and made a packed lunch from the Sainsburys for £10 for 2.

United KingdomThe not real negatives were I found the traffic outside a bit noisy but that is reflected in my location score. Turn this around and it was intact very well placed for the city centre. It is just that it is close to one of the principal access roads.
Well equipped and comfortable.

SwedenSpace was probably the best compromise of most facilities in smallest space, but some compromises made that made it feel a little claustrophobic. Especially due to the location of the apartment on the side of the park and with a tall building opposite.
Pretty good value for money and a great location close to the centre.

United KingdomIt was very hot and the windows wouldn’t stay open, so we had to prop the windows open, eventually buying ourselves a fan. It might be an idea to have a fan at the property or the ability to open the skylight. There wasn’t enough cutlery. We would have had to take turns of a spoon was required! We managed to get the hob to work once, but not again after that and it wasn’t ideal having to lift the microwave out of the cupboard as the cable wasn’t long enough to reach a plug.
It was in a great situation and was nice and clean

United KingdomI should have checked before booking but it's situated on a busy road, and I was able to hear traffic throughout the night. The apartment had good facilities and was clean but crockery, cutlery and cooking equipment was not complete. There was also a lingering sewage like smell.
Good, central location in close proximity to University of Bristol buildings.
