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.).

AustraliaThe shower is tiny and the base gets full of water as soon as you start the shower. Hot water is not hot and doesn't last long. The fridge in the room is tiny. There's no kitchen. The mattress is a spring old mattress. A mattress topper could make the bed more comfortable.
Location is definitely the best. Right in the old town and 5 minute walk to the bus/ferry terminal. The room is spacious and vintage. Good WiFi and working A/C. Gordan is very friendly.

BrazilThis property should NOT be listed at booking.com! When I arrived at the property with my friend and Ivan realized I was South American be became extremely rude, said that I didn’t have to stay there, he had problems with non Europeans (he specifically used this words). It took me 2 days to find another place, when I finally did, he wanted me to pay for the hole week I had booked, even tho I was leaving the next morning because clearly I was not welcome and the place was not good! I had to argue with him to only pay for the 2 nights I actually slept there! On the top of that, I when I left I forgot my computer at his place. When I came back to pick it up, Ivan pushed my friend outside of the property, so only I would come up with him, and when I got to the room, the computer was gone. Besides that, the place is not at all like the pictures. The description is confusing. When I booked I thought I would have my own room, but it turned out to be a shared room with 4 beds. Besides, the room had no locker for keeping your items safe and It’s creepy. Ivan should not be a host, he’s racist and extremely rude.

AustraliaI am a female solo traveller! I had nevee met such an abusive, Racist, mean, aggressive owner/mamager/host after travelling about 75 countries! . First of all, the accommodation is NOT an apartment! Misleading information on booking.com! It actually is a studio only. No kitchen facilities, you have to make coffee at the toilet door, drink water from bathroom basin! Very small shower. Owner wanted me to pay for a" board made of shell" to replace his old toilet seat because there was a crack on the toilet seat during my stay. There were 3 people there, but i was the only woman. he said that I was the last people left the accommodation on that date. He said he knew it was me from his 68 year experience! I asked why? He said because I asked too much before he said that I asked for blankets and toilet papers. the Italian guy was given a warm one. . Me and other Asian guy were not given any! he said that we came from warm areas, we didn't need blankets. I asked for a blanket first day. He gave me a very small and thin one. I asked for another one next day. I also I remindered him of no toilet paper on the 3rd day too! He wanted to kick me out for the 3rd night because I refused to pay for the cracked toilet seat , even though he had received money , €150 in CASH payment for 3 night rent! Luckily I insisted for a receipt when I paid! He verbly attacked my Asian background. He thought that I was Philippines. When I told him that I am Chinese then he said I was a communist! He said that he knew what communists like because he went through it 50 years ago! I told him that I am not a communist! I came from Australia! He pointed his finger toward me and almost touched my nose many times , he was very angry, aggressive, and yelled at me many times that my brain has been taken out by communists etc! He stopped it only after I was going to call police! He worried that I would write to booking.
None! Terrible, horrible, racist owner!

Singapore- it was essentially an airbnb with 4 beds. Not a hostel - shower floods every time - blanket was just a sheet and it was freezing at night - landlord was a very odd man. On check out day he walked in and out of the apartment shirtless and without knocking. At this point i was a woman alone in the entire apartment. felt very odd
how private it was & location

The gate door was broken and refused to repair , told me “ I am not your slave to fix the door ) he asked me just to unlock the gate which was unsafe . The shower is extremely small, no hot water , cold shower everyday .

HungaryMain thing is the attitude of the owner. He comes and goes every time he wants. When I checked in, there was some amount pending since he didn’t have cash for me to return the rest and payment was cash only direct. He regularly checks with me by sending some timeslots to give him the cash, those were not ok for me since I came here to visit the city and not to have meetings with him and I should utilize my time well. I informed him as well about my timings and he messaged me the day before checkout don't play cat and mouse game and he is going to report this Booking.com. The second incident was, one lady came for check-in who is of the age of my mother to whom he told beware of me. The way he talks and the way he behaves completely ruined my trip. Never look for the lower price, there is something hidden in it, here it is the owner. The lady who checked in also had bad experiences from him. The day before checkout at 11:40PM, he came and collected the money and went back. Other things, AC should not be operated below 22, there is a sticker posted for that in the room, WIFI stopped working the day before checkout, rooms are not clean and provides only bedsheet and three old towels and no blanket. Also, I made sure that before I check out, I meet this person and ask him about the incident, he just skipped the question by complaining about the lady. I told him that I am not going to leave any review for you because it’s one star and don’t do this to anyone else, he then replied that ‘good I will also not give you any review in that case’. I don’t care about review that I am going to get, but about this person and what happened to me I should warn others and if that person had a little bit of regret, I should not have posted this. I have all the screenshots of the communications I had with him. Don’t let such places ruin your trip, plan well and enjoy your travel.
Only thing good about this place is the location, it is within the palace compound and you can see the bell tower from the windows.

RussiaWhen I came I forgot that I need to pay by cash and it took me awhile to get it from the atm. The owner saw it as I don’t wanna pay lol and was totally rude and acting crazy. I’ve travelled many countries and stayed at many different places but never seen anything like that. This guy needs a doctor. He even locked the room with my stuff and the girl who was staying there too. That’s definitely not a good place for a vacation. Also there were cockroaches(!) in the apartment, in the bathroom and the room itself. The shower wasn’t clean enough and not comfy at all. I wouldn’t recommend this place even though it’s in old town. It’s not worth the money and energy.
Only the location was ok for me.
