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.).

IrelandThe only down side to the apartment was, there was just one bathroom / toilet and that was very disappointing and frustrating when more than 3 people share the apartment
This is one of few occasions when I can say that 99% was better than expected

The apartment was lovely, clean and well equipped, with a great terrace and garden. The welcome pack was a nice touch. Unfortunately we had an accident while on holiday but Ruben and his mum were incredibly helpful in lots of ways. Thank you!

United KingdomLong walk or cab ride to any local restaurants. Development office were not keen to help as the apartment was not being looked after by them. No guidance on excursions or things to do. Nobody to contact in an emergency. When we called a help line number the response often took over a day. When they did get back to us they were very attentive and fixed things as needed. There was no immediate help and often the phone number went nowhere.
Quiet. Plenty of room around pool. Beaches excellent nearby. Apartment very clean and well cared for.

IrelandSpotlessly clean apartment and veranda. Extra pillows and blankets available if needed. Host met us the morning of check in to show us local places we may want to visit. Gave us his contact number to reach out if we needed anything during our stay. Provided us with towels for the beach or pool. All amenities provided that you could need like microwave, kettle, oven, hairdryer, coffee machine, fridge, safe, iron, air conditioning, washing machine and WiFi. Nice local beach located 5 minute walk from apartment (small hill) The pool facilities are great, multiple sunbeds and nice food served in the bar. Uber to Albufeira old town only around 6 euro. To Marina only 4 euro. All in all would 10/10 recommended this booking and if we ever return it will definitely be to here. Ruben is a legend 👍🏻

IrelandWe found 3 "Bed bugs" in my sons bed, between the clean sheets. He then refused to stay in his room and it resulted in him sleeping with us in our bed. That wasn't convenient or a nice surprise. We could have done without it.
Ruben Flores was unbelievable. We are in the hospitality industry in Ireland and I must say he gave us the Welcoming package that every places should offer to it's tourists. His presentation as well as his manners were much appreciated. we did have an issue with the WIFI which he sorted within the next hour. The place was spotless and the welcoming pack was such a nice surprise with a bottle of Wine, Water, Tea, Coffee .....etc. He also was rich in recommendations for activities we were able to enjoy over some others. We had a fantastic stay. We'll be back. Thank you all. Pierre, Magda & Mikolaj :)

PortugalThe apartment shows some signs of use but nothing terrible, everything works. The pool must be accessed with a card which we did not have. However, the pool staff let us in but advised the owner to get such card, which might be tricky since the Home Owner Association Office is closed on Sundays.
Very friendly host, showed us everything and made himself available in case anything was needed. There was a welcome pack with wine, milk, water, coffee and tea! We did not spend a lot of time in the apartment but there was everything one might need such as a fully-equipped kitchen (no dishwasher but this is a studio), iron, pool towels, really everything.
