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 KingdomEverything was great. It wouldn’t suit anyone with mobility issues as there were lots of steps up to the flat.
It was bright, clean and well decorated. It was the perfect base to explore Oban from. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well equipped. The location was great and very central. I’d definitely book this property again. The owner was responsive and helpful.

SwedenBeds a bit too soft for our liking. In one of the bedrooms the window is not mounted properly which makes the traffic noise from the street much more noticeable than in the other bedroom.
Very communicative and helpful host! Wonderful, modern and well equipped kitchen and a very comfortable sofa. Appreciated the rug in the living room which made it a little bit more cosy and less sterile for a rental. Good water pressure in the shower, overall a very clean and nice bathroom. All in all a very good stay!

AustraliaPaid parking (had trouble with the tesco app, when we didn’t have a local phone number) Didn’t need it, but wasn’t sure where the washing machine was.
Walking distance to attractions, train, restaurants. Entrance looks a little unappealing but up the stairs and you’ll find a lovely apartment.

AustraliaThe only thing that may deter some people from this property is the stairs leading up to the apartment. They are narrow and twisty. It didn't bother us, but we have no mobility issues and not overly large luggage. We thought they were cool...but I could see how they may cause issues for some.
The location of this apartment is fantastic. Just minutes from the train station and ferry terminal. The host (Joe) was easy to deal with and provided quick responses to my questions. The facilities in the apartment are everything you could want for a short stay. I would highly recommend this apartment for your next visit to Oban.

United KingdomOther residents of the building were not diligent about making sure the entryway door was kept shut. But this might be urban paranoia on my part, since we never saw any suscpicious characters coming in and out (besides ourselves). Parking was not adjacent to the flat, but it was possible to unload the car by the entry door, then drive 500 metres to park for a reasonable rate, £6 per night when we did it. Note that parking there required use of a smartphone app, which wasn't difficult to use.
After traversing a sketchy-looking entryway just off the high street, you enter a well-provisioned, well-furninshed, bright top-floor modern flat. Beds are comfortable (though I barked my shin on the frame of mine, so be careful when first entering the room!). The location couldn't be more central (5 minutes' walk to the pier), you can see the water and the ferry out the window, and we were lucky with the weather so we also had good views of Kerrera and Mull during our whole stay. Directions for finding and entering the flat and for finding parking were detailed and comprehensive. Wifi was good.

United KingdomSuper minute detail. When the washing machine and shower are being used at the same time, there is no hot water supply to the shower. Not a problem at all.
Everything! I highly recommend staying here. The location is perfect! The amenities and the whole flat was amazing, not to mention the strong water pressure in the shower! The property manager was consistently in touch and ready to provide any assistance. Will definitely stay here when I come to Oban again. 10/10!
