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 KingdomI like a standard check out at 12pm, don't always know what I'm doing to ask in advance for late checkout, but not a major issue.
Lovely apartment with a fantastic view, extremely clean. Everything was easy, the details on access, how to work things, enough places to hang towels etc, unlike some places which are equally attractive, but aren't well thought out and have endless hassles.

From the moment you enter the apartment through its own quality composite front door you get the quality beyond that implies. The bathroom is spacious with a large shower cubicle, kitchen has all the appliances you would need (and more!) Fan oven, electric hob, microwave, air fryer, toaster, coffee machine, large fridge freezer and a washing machine (could have been washer/dryer, don’t know never used it) After reading some comments about the bed, it did indeed feel a bit unusual to sit on but once lying down it was very comfortable. The lounge was lovely, TV very good and reliable using iPlayer and other streaming services (no buffering as other reviewers mentioned). The overall feel of the apartment was excellent, down to having really nice ornaments and pictures. The location is excellent and the ever changing views from the large bay window would be hard to beat. A real home from home and definitely worth a revisit 😊

United KingdomThe main thing was the bed. It wasn’t very comfortable for us, although I am 5’ 11” and my husband is 6’ 5” so we always have issues! The shower isn’t very powerful either, but that’s not a dealbreaker for us. Possibly a blind in the kitchen would also be a great addition as you do feel a bit exposed at night.
The property is perfectly placed for all the local amenities. There are lots of shops pubs restaurants and takeaways within a 10 minute walk of the apartment. It had everything we need for a few nights away.

United KingdomI had a problem with the key safe. Standing on your own, unable to access your holiday property is a bit stressful. To be fair, I think the problem was with booking.com as there is 4 digit PIN on the confirmation email and I thought it was the key code. I got in touch with the owner who sorted it out for me straight away. Thank you, Priya!
I loved the location. The view from the living room window was amazing, straight over the bay. I enjoyed watching the ferries on their way to Cumbrae and back and, icing on the cake, the Waverley steamed in and out of Largs 3 times during my 4 night stay. The sunset on the first night, looking out over the water and the ferries was spectacular.

United KingdomA very high standard in an excellent location. Well equipped kitchen and very clean. Parking can be a bit of a game, but by the end of the day, we always had a space outside. Despite being a seafront apartment, it was very quiet both internally from neighbours and externally from gulls and traffic etc

United KingdomSome of the amenities were a bit clunky, such as the bedroom wardrobe. The property also lacks a full-body mirror and most things such as the remote or heating control pads need new batteries, which should not be a visitor’s worry.
Beautifully located property with amazing views. Everything we might’ve needed as tourists was available.

United KingdomThe bed was a small double, the mattress springs dug into us and it creaked every time one of us moved, prob could do with an upgrade to a full double divan. Parking is impossible in the vicinity but there are payable car parks not too far, not so handy if you have mobility issues though.
The views were fantastic, the apt was very clean and very well equipped, kitchen had everything you would need inc a washer/dryer, there was also an iron and hairdryer. Lots of storage. Brilliant location for walks, shops, bars, etc. Would recommed The Three Reasons and ROOM for food, both delish. The apt felt safe and secure. We stayed for a week and had a fantastic time, would def book this apt again.

United KingdomParking. No designated parking & it was very busy so only managed to park on the street once in 6 days. Would recommend the pay car park on the seafront. Only £5 for over 3 hours & we left the car there overnight several times & only charged £5 (free for 2 nights as camera hadn't picked up our. registration number!) Easy to drive back to the apartment to collect luggage. We were aware that there was no allocated parking but assumed that on street parking would be easy to find. Another issue that we were aware of was the lack of a lift. The apartment is on the second floor and carrying luggage for nearly a week was quite a chore. Wouldn't be an issue with a small weekend bag and the views from the apartment were worth the climb.
The location is amazing! Loved the sea view from the living room and bedroom - awesome! The apartment is modern, comfortable and very well equipped. Would highly recommend. We had an amazing stay

United KingdomMy only niggle was the bad tv buffering which means best to have netflix log in details to hand.
Firstly i was lucky enough to get an early check in which was great. Communication with Priya was also great and she even managed 2 arrange a few festive decs. Perfect location close to shops, ferry terminal and train station and theres a great place for breakfast few doors down Buena Onda, would recommend. Its all about the lovely view here, i was quite happy sitting at window with a cuppa watching the ferries go back and forth, very relaxing. The kitchen is amazingly equipped with every utensil you could ever need. I also liked that kitchen towel, tinfoil, cling film was provided, along with pots/pans. Too many places now think 1 frying pan and a wooden spoon is enough for a self catering holiday! I stay in numerous accommodations throughout the year and with my ocd i have a very high standard and always pack my marigolds but cleanliness here is exceptionally high. You can tell that everything is nice and new. Although not in the photos, the shower is a large walk in shower and theres loads of bathroom storage. Nice fluffy towels and i loved the 2 different colours so you and your partner can stick to 1 colour! Heating is also another plus, very warm in every room with options to adjust. Comfy bed and again great view from bedroom. In all a great stay and im hoping to rebook. Cant recommend enough!
