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 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.).

New ZealandThe staff ignored three emails and one phone message from us asking check in questions. We never got any replies! The day we checked in the company provided three different addresses by email for the key pick up location. This was only sorted out by another phone call from me which we were lucky enough to have answered this time. The key pick up and drop off location cost us 20 pounds in two taxi fares to travel between the company office and the accommodation which annoyed me greatly. Everyone else uses lock boxes on site! I detest the 150 pound security deposit that the management company demanded we pay one week before arrival and promise to repay two weeks after our departure. In my opinion this is a company scam forcing every customer to finance their bank overdraft! Other than that we will never give the management company our business again!
It was a very up market place to stay.

United KingdomFirst property had a broken blind in the bedroom that the staff said they were aware of but decided not to mention at check in. The key collection and drop off would be better on site or in a key safe. As this was a ten minute taxi ride away.

United KingdomThe blinds need replacing very poor do not work or block the light out. And got woken up at 5am on Tuesday morning by someone banging on someone front door so loud we could hear it and had to check the door thinking it was our flat. Also the fridge door wouldn’t stay closed unless you really pressed the door but didn’t alway work. We only had a small carton of milk and a drink inside.
Location and space was lovely having a car space was handy.

ItalyIt was a bit hard to find, although after a while we managed to get the right location on Maps. It's slightly away (still walking distance) from the city centre, though the Yard is such a cool place with many restaurants and shops
The apartment was stunning, super bright and spacious, with industrial design furniture and decorations. It had everything needed and we just loved the space and it's vibes.

United KingdomKey collection in a different location the property. £150 to pay incase you trash the flat. lots of stairs, no lift. endless emails telling us we had to leave by 10am, we only stayed one night. very difficult to find the flat, no numbers on any of the outside doors. not toddler friendly, again more stairs in the flat, and because its residential as well as holiday lets, the locals don't like crying toddlers, grandson cried for 10 mins before going to bed, and they were banging on the walls, which wasn't very helpful.
Fantastic flat, great bed rooms,2 good sized doubles and two toilets and a main bathroom, so great for me, daughter, son in law and 2 year old grandson. Lovely views over the water, parking and lots of coffee shops and places to eat .

United KingdomSince my last visit. The blinds have been broken. This apartment has large windows. Which face the sunrise from both bedrooms. So its not possible to sleep with bare windows and on what was a lovely sunny day in Plymouth. The place is bright from 5 am! Downstairs bedroom door ! Dont close from the inside all the way if you want to get out again, listed building huge doors must be logistical nightmare but this is a design flaw !
Stayed twice before, great location. Amazing apartment , has all you need for a self catering break

United KingdomThere was one serious safety issue two and other issues regarding this accommodation; The bi-fold door for the lower bedroom is a serious safety hazard should swift exit from the room be required during an emergency. The door closes in on itself when pushed shut and cannot be opened (no handle on the inside) without having to get onto the floor and prise it open with your fingers - however, once you manage to get the door to open slightly, the top of it catches on a steel pillar outside the room preventing it opening fully without having to work it back and forth! If there were a fire and the occupant of the room was not aware of the malfunctioning door, the result could be quite disastrous. A second hazard was that there was no anti-slip mat provided for the over bath shower and the bath surface is not non-slip. I am an able bodied middle aged person and found it quite dicey, it's a simple fix that could prevent a possible accident. We arrived for our first night in the dark and when I tried to lower the venetian blind in the lower bedroom, it came away from the ceiling fixing, jammed and could not be lowered or closed. I reported it immediately as it was still during business hours. The following day nothing was done to rectify the blind. I called the managing agent again who said it had been referred and will refer it again. The follow day I called the managing agent only to told that the owner would not be replacing/fixing the blind during our stay as it has happened a few times before and are expensive to replace! I spent the entire duration of our stay (4 nights) in a bedroom with a very large window (approx 7 ft high) with absolutely zero privacy (there were builders across the road on scaffolding early each morning) and zero blackout for sleeping - I found it quite appalling that not even a temporary measure was attempted in order to provide comfort for a paying guest. I hope the owner has a similar experience in holiday accommodation...
Collecting the keys was not straight forward - requiring a visit to another property away from the accommodation. Not very well explained as to where the accommodation is, particularly in the dark.

United KingdomWould have rated higher if it wasn’t for the fact that the keys had to be collected and then returned to a completely different location. Also I think charging £12 per day for parking when they have a designated parking space is not good. In my opinion it should be included and would be an extra selling point. Lovely accommodation but I wouldn’t stay here again for those reasons.
The location was lovely and the sea view was really nice.

United KingdomCollecting the keys, i hadn't realised at booking that we would need to go somewhere else to collect them. We then found the key office and there was a note on the door telling us it was closed and we needed to go somewhere else. The downstairs bedroom and lounge blinds couldn't be pulled down, it was difficult to sleep because of this. I did mention this when I dropped the keys back to the office. The stairs to access the apartment in the building, there was no lift and the treads were short. This was hard with a baby and child and all the kit that was needed, up and down the stairs.
Very spacious and clean. Netflix for the children. The location.
