Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomWell, what could I possibly say? Nothing of any real consequence but we were surprised by the £150 returnable damage deposit. Whilst perfectly understandable, surprised as Ripon is hardly known for raves and hen nights and as seasoned travellers with over 50 stay aways over the last couple of years, only one previous request for a deposit. Delighted to say said deposit quickly returned.
Certainly one of the best accommodation over our three week tour now coming to an end. First impressions count and upon arrival we were immediately impressed, not to mention the rather lovely thought of some goodies provided for our pleasure, a Yorkshire parkin cake, local beer, crisps and sweets. To be sure, you will be impressed dear reader by this spacious, modern, clean and very comfortable apartment, especially the scrumptiously comfy big bed. The en suite is top notch. Well equipped with everything you need from egg cups to a handy washing machine, useful on a long vacation. Your host, Fenella, quickly responding to any questions. Free on site parking. Centrally located in the beautiful city of Ripon, ranked as one of the prettiest "towns" in the UK by the Daily Telegraph. Further full review on TripAdvisor Torbayaotearoa 🇬🇧🇳🇿

United KingdomThe apartment was spacious, comfortable and well equipped with everything needed for a self-catering stay. With a dedicated parking space and located close to the city centre, it made a perfect base for our mini-break in Ripon. Thoughtful touches like towelling robes, toiletries in the bathroom, and a welcome basket of Yorkshire produce all added to the enjoyment of our stay.

This lovely apartment was bright and warm and exceptionally clean. The kitchen was very well equipped and the bathroom was beautiful. Although in the city centre it was quite and the parking space an added bonus. Once we parked the car we did not use again until we left for home as public transport is brilliant in the area. Dealing with the owner was very easy and straightforward and we will definitely stay again.

United KingdomAs a stop over on my journey from Surrey to Bamburgh Northumberland this more than fulfilled my needs, and provided a more convenient and comfortable alternative to a more expensive and impersonal hotel room. As a bonus it was just a few minutes walk to the cathedral and a short drive to Fountains Abbey, both of which I had wanted to visit. I would have no hesitation in staying longer if I was in the area again.

United KingdomI can't suggest anything that would have made it better. I confess my wife and I are not completely au fait with the modern approach to coffee (with its multitude of options). So while the coffee machine worked perfectly, we were somewhat at sea with the Italian descriptions on the capsules; this of course is our problem, not the apartment's!
Well laid out. Appreciated the "welcome" basket of goodies. Plenty of coffee capsules! Very comfortable and plenty of space for two. everything worked. Regular contact from the host before and during our stay.
