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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

AustraliaLike other reviews, not having the beds made on arrival was disappointing -after a big day of travelling and exploring the town the last thing you want to do is have to go to your apartment and make the bed. The pillows are also incredibly soft, to the point where I had to fold mine in half to be comfortable (you only get one pillow). It should also be noted that while there's a great kitchen in the apartment, there aren’t any basic ingredients like oil, which is common in most apartment hires. While this is very minor, it was disappointing as we had booked this place during a 5 week holiday with the intention to cook dinner but ended up eating out both nights as we didn’t see any point wasting our money on basic ingredients that we wouldn’t finish.
Properly was in a fantastic location - 10/15 min walk to Bryggen and a ~5 minute walk to a grocery store. Place was furnished well and it was very comfortable. Yes there are a lot of stairs but you are made aware of this in advance.

NetherlandsIt was carefully decorated, but not extremely clean. The fridge was grimey, there was a bit of mold in the bathroom and the showerhead was broken.
This is a great location. You can walk to Bryggen in 10 minutes and many museums are close by. From the balcony there's a view on a waterfall.

United KingdomThe front main door of the building was very sticky and I had a struggle every time I needed to enter the building. At one point in my stay the door refused to open and I was informed that the code to open the door had been changed without advance warning. This is completely inappropriate. The door to the balcony was also very stiff. The shower, although nice and powerful, ran cool (not cold, but definitely not warm either) after only a few minutes, meaning that I had to wash my hair with lukewarm water. For this price, there should be adequate hot water--if there were more than one person staying, that second person would be pretty upset! The overhead aircon/heater was also noisy.
Amazing location right near everything but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful. 2 restaurants practically on the doorstep (no noise). The living room was very comfy with a great sofa, there is a lovely little balcony with a view of the mountain to sit at for breakfast (if its dry). The kitchen had everything you need. The space is very cute and I enjoyed staying.

BelgiumEverything was very good, but if i had to find an improvement point, i didn't like that beds were not made, and you had to put the bedsheets on by yourself. Also, when you leave, they expect you to remove am the bed linen too. Apart from that, the apartment was amazing.
Very good location. Comfortable appartement, in particular the bed. Was furnished with everything you might need during your stay in Bergen. Definitely recommend staying here.

AustraliaThere were some maintenance issues such as a faulty light, toilet flush buttons, and a damaged light shade, but nothing dramatic. More annoying was the small bedroom with a double bed sqeezed in and the lack of a wardrobe or even a place for the suitcase - just the floor. Also, there toaster shown in the listing was not there and the owner did not respond to my question about it.
The floor heating was nice and the living space was good.

Nice centrally located apartment, short walk to station, port, old town and funicular, plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. Reasonably well equipped kitchen. Although mentioned in other reviews, the only cooking supplies are those left by other travellers but detergent was supplied for both dish and clothes washers.
