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.).

AustraliaFirst impressions of apartment building was not good. Entry down an alleyway at back of a bar. Open the apartment block door to a damp dank odour. Tea and coffee would be a welcome addition.
Very cosy apartment once you get past the entry. Self contained so easy to self cater. The bed was like a cloud. Clean and well decorated. We were comfortable in the apartment.

United KingdomPlease be aware that the apartment is three floors up (68 spiral steps) with no lift. It isn't easy with luggage and an 82-year-old father. Whilst the apartment is beautifully decorated the curtains in the main bedroom are falling off and don't close properly - which is a bit unexpected. The kitchen is well equipped but there's nothing there at all food-wise - not even salt and pepper. There's no tin opener or bottle opener - so plan ahead if you are going to be cooking there.
This is a brilliant and quirky apartment with rooftop views across the city. It was clean, warm and beautifully decorated. We were so happy when we saw it and knew we had made a good choice. It's well located for everything you would like to do in Bergen.

AustraliaTV remote didn’t work properly, no access to live TV, and it was set to Spanish language (we don’t speak Spanish). No toiletries. Instructions to find first part of access to apartment building was very clear, but then hard to find which stairs to use, and which apartment was correct. We didn’t notice the tiny numbers set high in top corner of door, until the second day. We found the correct apartment by trying the key in every door till we found one that opened.
Fantastic location, in easy walking distance from everything: cafes, restaurants, city centre shops and sights, Bryggen, Fløybane, central station, museums and galleries. Small supermarket just around the corner (100m). Reasonably well-equipped for a short stay. Very clean and neat. Keylock system worked well. Owners easy to contact by messaging and responded fairly quickly.

ItalyThere were no chairs nor a table to sit at to at least have breakfast (just a small coffee table and you needed to sit on the floor). The flat is small and has a family of three we barely fit in when the sofa bed was open, so I think it is more suitable for a couple . The main downside is the alley leading to the flat entrance, which is very smelly due to garbage bins and the kitchens of a couple of pubs nearby. No parking space around so I strongly advice to not bring a car. Parking in a garage nearby was 10 euros for 1 hour!
We asked for an early check in and the staff was super helpful which was really nice and appreciated. The location of the flat is central at walking distance from all the main attractions. The flat is nice, clean and new, has a well equipped kitchen with a big refrigerator and a nice bathroom with a washing machine.

SpainThe entrance is through the back of a nightclub / restaurant. Terrible smell from the bins (not in the apartment though). Beds are located in the main living room / kitchen area, with 1 being a sofa bed, therefore for 4 people you either have no sofa for sitting, or you have to re-make the sofa / bed every day.
Location right in the city centre of Bergen., a few minutes walk from most major attractions. Washing machine.

New ZealandThe neighboring business had rubbish bins in the entrance courtyard which smelt awful. Thankfully the smell didn't make it into the apartment. There were no black out curtains installed so apartment was light all night (looks like these have been bought but not yet installed)
Lovely apartment in great location to explore central Bergen with lovely restaurants nearby. Was very handy to be able to come and go through the day

AustraliaThe plumbing in the bathroom/laundry is an major ongoing problem in Studio 303. Washing machine rinse cycle flooded area - it hasn't been fixed from previous people's reports. Three floors of steep spiral stairs must be mentioned in advertising this property. Does Booking.com have a duty-of-care policy?
Studio 303 : Kitchen facilities - though no table and chair to enjoy your meals on. Close to centre of town - if you survive the stairs.

MalaysiaWashing machine was leaking water, we gave up after 1x wash. The shower was also leaking water outside of the shower cubicle. Both instances caused the water to pool in the bathroom with no visible outlet, had to throw all the towels onto the floor to let it dry out. The picture suggests there will be a small dining table but it was nowhere to be found. The dishwasher also had various lights indicating it might be due for cleaning.
Has a dishwasher and a nice big fridge.
