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.).

SerbiaThe fact that it was basically spring temperatures and the proximity to the river itself led to there being one too many mosquitoes. There are no mosquito nets on the windows so you have to be careful when opening the windows. The apartment was really clean, there were only minor unsatisfactory details - the kettle had quite a lot of limescale so I had to clean it a bit before using; the towels seemed a bit old and one of the largest towels was a bit stained (we just put it on the floor as a bathroom mat as there were many towels offered so there was no need to contact the owner). If you are a bigger person, the shower might feel too cramped but nothing too concerning.
The host is really amazing, extremely helpful and responds quickly. The location is also great in regards to all the amenities and sights. The apartment itself is quite spacious and well stocked; looks like the pictures. There is floor heating and an AC so you shouldn't be too hot nor too cold at any time of the year. The apartment was clean and, me being insanely allergic to dust mites, had little to no reaction, which is not common even in the cleanest of places (if you have the allergy, you will know what I mean). I would gladly recommend this booking.

AustraliaOnly call out was the bathroom was a bit small, but that appears to be normal for most of Europe, so was aligned with our expectation/experience.
I have to agree with the other comments, Paola was a fabulous host. Very helpful. She meet us at the front and went through all the facilities of the apartment. We was always helpful with any questions and very responsive. Apartment was very nice, with kitchenette, lounge and separate bedroom. The air conditioning in both the lounge/kitchen area and the bedroom was a real bonus, as was the washer/dryer combo. The location was excellent. Out of the main busy area but only a short walk to the main attractions. So many restaurants and cafes nearby including the excellent must try gelateria next door! Very happy we stayed here, will stay again.

FranceMy husband told me afterwards he had wished to have softer pillows. It is possible that Paola would propose some if we asked for it during the stay.
Well-equipped, clean, calm and 5-minute walk to reach the heart of Old Town Firenze. Communication prior and during the stay is excellent. Thank you, Paola, for allowing us to catch a glimpse of the local life, but also to (re-)discover one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Thank you for the warmness of your welcome and the cosyness of this place. The great gelateria downstairs is a huge bonus!
