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.).

SingaporePoor housekeeping. When we checked in the trash was not emptied and there still still dirty towels on the heater. Toilet has no place to hang towel or clothes so all have to be placed on toilet bowl.
Nice view. Good value for money.

CanadaWould be helpful if the apartment had a number on it. This would have reduced some confusion as to which one we were assigned.
The apartment was spacious, clean and had an excellent view of a nearby park. Kitchen had everything we needed. The location was great. We were able to tour several places in the surrounding 2 hour radius that we wanted to see.

IcelandBeing really fussy but it could have had a TV. Other than that, there was not anything that I disliked
The location was incredible. The house was well equipped with everything that was needed and it was a very comfortable stay. It's easily accessible and the views over the surrounding landscape are incredible

SpainThe apartment is half done, lot of things are not finished or installed. Mirror is in a box in the hallway, there's no hanger for the big wet coats. The bathroom is the main problem: the light is not installed, there's a weak designer ambiance light behind the mirror but it's still very dark with it. The radiator is also not installed there, just the pipe end, so it means there is absolutely zero heating in the bathroom. There is one small power socket only there for the toothbrush or razor, but the included (by the way, very good) hair dryer cannot be connected, the plug is too thick: so you have to dry your hair in the kitchen, next to the sink. The shower water pressure is very weak, everywhere else in the apartment it's good. The walk in shower looks pretty but it's very impractical, everything gets wet no matter how hard you try and there's no mop or any cleaning tool provided so the water just stays in the bathroom floor. There is no hand towel provided, just one big per person. The doorstep is not installed at the entrance door so the wind is whistling inside always if you have a window open. The booking page is incorrect: it claims there will be shower gel, shampoo provided, there was nothing. There is no washing machine either despite the advertisement which was an unfortunate discovery. I understand sometimes constructions can get delayed and maybe you already have guest coming. But then it should be indicated in both the advertisement and especially in the price if something is not yet finished.
Good wifi. The apartment is very pretty and all new in the parts that are finished. The windows provide a beautiful view to the mountains. The dishwasher is very useful and the kitchen is very practical.

IcelandA beautiful apartment in a quiet and beautiful little town. It was incredibly cozy, we felt so relaxed there. Had everything we needed to make good meals, there was a newly renovated bathroom and the bed was very comfortable. Easy to recommend! We especially liked their collection of board games, it was a nice change to not spend an evening in front of a screen :)

SwitzerlandHowever, I would not stay there again for the following reasons: -if you are planning to stay in/around the area of Isafjordur, avoid Bolungarvik - it is a gloomy village -the apartment (and the building) is still under renovation and not completely fit for purpose. Here is why: water in the shower does not drain quick enough, most sockets are not working preventing the use of kitchen appliances on the kitchen counter, hair dryer cannot be used in bathroom as there are no sockets (but this is the only place with a mirror) -balcony is dilapidated and seems not to have been renovated yet -the stairs in the building are completely unfinished and you feel you enter a building that is in the middle of renovations -there are dead flies and dust on window sills, floors -kitchen was not cleaned with food crumbs remaining in the oven, in the cupboards, under the dining table We asked one of the owners (Daniel) to have the areas cleaned. Unfortunately these were addressed only half heartedly. It seems the owner was not interested in having satisfied guests in his establishment. Clearly not a recommendation to stay.
The good thing about this apartment is that it is newly renovated and has a nice view of the mountains and the fjiords. It is spacious and can comfortably fit 4 people.

IcelandThe apartment is not in a good contition, we were unable to see the beautiful view from the apartment as the windows and the glass in them are out of order. There was no dining table, only 2 cups, 2 wineglasses, no waterglasses and no teaspoons. No smoke ditector, in the smaller room there was no light, and on the balcony were trash and two chairs in bad condition.
We liked the beds and the location
