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.).

Host was accessible via the Booking.com app and responded very quickly when we had any exchanges. Highly recommend it.

NetherlandsWe were surprised to find a Palestinian flag on the main building; some guests may feel a bit unwelcome or uncomfortable because of it
The apartment was very well styled with great eye for detail. It was a 30 minutes walk to the lovely centre of Cambridge. There were bikes for rent (not as a courtesy). Parking space was good sized.

United KingdomThere was no hand-wash or soap in the bathroom, likewise we used the electric fan as it was very warm, this blew out a considerable amount of dust.
The location for the event we was attending was a 5min walk. Likewise ample parking.

United KingdomThe location was great in terms of access to the centre of Cambridge, but it is located on a main road. Sometimes the vibrations from traffic meant that the whole apartment shook. Perhaps not great if you are a light sleeper - it even managed to wake me up a couple of times!
A lovely studio apartment with everything we needed for a long weekend away. Comfy bed, great sofa and generally well equipped kitchen if you wanted to cook yourself something.

What a fantastic find! A stunning studio apartment right by Wolfson College. We thought it would be hot, but it was really cool in there, even though it was boiling outside. Superb shower, poweeeerrrfuuul! Great crisp bedding. Will definitely stay here again.

United KingdomThe pressure of the smaller shower could have been slightly better. The TV could be placed higher up the wall, as it was a bit too low to see when lying in bed. Both were minor issues, however, and the Netflix account was a nice touch!
Scholar's Loft exceeded our expectations in the best way. Arrival was stress-free and easy. The loft itself had pretty much everything we could have needed and was designed gorgeously. The hosts were very helpful in getting back to me and it was clear they had made an effort to provide guests with good recommendations and advice.

United KingdomTraffic noise/vibrations with lorry's driving past. The windows were fairly well insulated, but would have been more of an issue in the summer. No breakfast places nearby - consider providing continental breakfast and some fresh milk.
Beautifully decorated, immaculate and very comfortable. Convenient for attending event at Newnham College. Good value compared to hotels. Would also be convenient if bringing a car.
