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 StatesOur room had a very intense paint smell
The location was fantastic! The views from our room were incredible. The staff was kind and helpful in many ways, including helping with arranging excellent transportation from the port/ airport. The breakfast was wonderful and made our mornings great.

AustraliaThere was a frequent odour from the sewerage system or cooking odours from the nearby Onar restaurant. For the price, I would expect these odours would be eliminated or the nightly rate reduced to compensate for the inconvenience.
I liked the stay, however we found other villas that were more value for money and were 4 star hotels. I think the breakfast needs to include more dairy products like cheeses and yoghurt with Granola or cereal to cater for younger guests. The three wooden stools were a hazard for young kids as they kept toppling. It was stressful to ensure an accident didn't happen. Also the little area above the stairs needs to be closed off as kids might accidentally fall over the stairs.

United StatesArrange to have someone meet you somewhere near the hotel as it is very hard to find. The address in Google maps puts you in a slightly different location. They need to try to put out a few more signs. Also. even though cars are super cheap to rent ($17/day) I recommend NOT renting as there is basically no parking anywhere.
We rented this place primarily for the view and were not disappointed. Lots of restaurants very close. Breakfast is served out on the balcony with the view below. Super friendly staff, they are the owners.

SingaporeAll was good!
Location was great. 10 min walk from the craziness of Fira, so it wasn’t too busy around, yet close enough to get to the action by foot. Breakfast was delivered everyday sharp, and super friendly staff. We got the 2 floor unit which had 2 bathrooms and a hot tub which was great! The only thing to consider (which doesn’t seem avoidable if you also want a view) is that you’ll have a bunch of randoms close to your unit regularly taking pictures cause the view is that good!

AustraliaIf mobility is a problem, then the steps could be a problem as the bed is on a mezzanine up steep steps from the lounge, and there are many steps leading from the taxi drop-off point to the property.
Lovely apartment with a million dollar view. Very clean and spacious. Lots of steps, but the view was worth it. Quiet, away from passing traffic, a minute's walk to great restaurants. Wonderful breakfast included and delivered to our patio each morning.

Everything about our stay was just exceptional. The location was ideal to watch daily sunsets. The view on the terance was breathtaking. The room came with complimentary wine, food and drinks. Smart tv in the room allowed us to enjoy movies together. The host was very helpful from allowing us to keep our luggage early and arranging our early morning transfer. Breakfast was super.
