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.).

HungaryNice apartment, at the outer part of the city. Easy to get out of the city from here with car. You can park at the building for free, but the parking places are getting full during the working hours. There is a supermarket nearby (walk distance), and a few restaurants.

United KingdomNo shower curtain made it hard not to soak the bathroom floor. The bathroom fan was constantly on, so a little noisy. Construction work opposite. Didn't start early, so noise not a big issue for us. Little privacy in day if curtains open though.
Easy check in & no key to carry around, as there's an access code on the door. The apartment was very clean and warm. Beds comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Lovely toileteries in bathroom. 20-40 minute walk to all the main sights. Lots of restaurants & shops nearby. Easy parking to side of the building, plenty of spaces. Would stay here again.

Czech RepublicThe bathroom wasn't properly cleaned (hair in the sink, dirty floor). On the day of my departure, someone tried to enter my room before check out time several times, knowing my door code (!). When I opened, someone from the staff (I guess?) told me he wanted to inspect the room with the manager. Whatever that was supposed to mean, it was very unprofessional and disrespectful to the privacy of the guests.
Nice and comfortable for a short stay, good bus connection to the city centre.

United KingdomNothing in particular. It was just right.
It was just right for our needs. Would of been nice to have a little more room but really cannot Complain. Would definitely use the place again when we return next summer. We got to see the northern lights an hours drive away which was a bonus. Adequate parking for those using rental car. Nearby supermarket and also a 24/7 petrol pump/electric charger next to the hotel. The centre of the city was only a 20-30minute walk.

ItalyThe code to open the door did not work so I had to call the assistance and a gentlman helped resetting it. The bathroom vent was super loud, even with closed door we could ear it. We were so tired and are used to sleep in loudy places that this was not a problem but for many it could be.
The room was big, full equipped, very comfortable and modern. Easy to get, easy to park. Highly recommended

United KingdomThe apartment was too hot. The heating seemed to be on for the whole building and there was no way to control it. Although the temperature outside was negative we kept the windows open during the day. Could use a mat by the door, as the shoes were wet from the snow outside, the first time we got in, the floor was all wet... We end up having to take our boots outside before getting in.
The apartment was fairly clean. There was a toaster, Nespresso machine, microwave and utensils for cooking. The apartment was small and pretty basic but fit for the purpose as we stayed out during the day. There was a laundry room for guests but we didn't use it so can't comment on that. Communication was really good, every time I texted before the trip with questions, they answered straight away and were really polite and helpful. Great location, very near Reykjavik by car and several supermarkets nearby. We rented a car as transport is very expensive in Iceland, it was the best thing we could have done. Saved us a lot of money in tours as we got to visit all the most famous locations by ourselves. The only tour we paid for was to go see the Northern lights as you don't want to go to unknown places in the dark of night by yourself. If you are going to Iceland to explore and see as much as you can and need a place jus for sleeping and cook the occasional meal/breakfast I recommend this apartment.

United KingdomA bit more information beforehand regarding laundry, I didn't know that there would be a charge for using the washing machine and dryer, would be helpful to have that advertised online.
Using access codes made it so easy and simple and less likely to forget keys as the code was always on my phone. It felt safe too. Lovely apartment, perfect size for one person, had everything I needed, very clean and tidy, also the views from the window were amazing especially during sunset. Good reasonable distance from the main town area with shops, close to amenities and cafe opposite the flat. Nice location, easy to reach via taxi or local bus,was able to access local excursions/tour buses close by too.
