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.).

Isle of ManIt's a bit small for three people, there wasn't much space with the sofa bed unfolded, but would be perfect for two. I wouldn't mind a bit more thorough cleaning.
The apartment was well equipped and in a perfect location. Metro few minutes away, Bolhão market opposite and nice supermarket next door. Single beds were very comfy with pretty firm mattresses. Quiet despite being in the city centre. We didn't mind climbing the stairs

United StatesThe bed was very uncomfortable- like sleeping on plywood! It definitely should be changed. The three flights of stairs were a task to manage if you want to do a lot of luggage or have heavier luggage to carry.
The location of this apartment was wonderful. It is very spacious for two people. The check in process was extremely easy and staff always were quick in responding.

CanadaLots of construction near the apartment. Apartment was 3rd storey up w/no elevator which was a challenge w/ luggage (76 steps!). Couch was a bit uncomfortable and coffee table would have been useful. The following are not complaints, only suggestions for the host. In the apartment, some instructions for washer and induction stove would be helpful for visitors not used to these appliances. A note that the hot water is VERY hot would also be usefum. And the host could give an extra warning about not dead-bolting the main door at street level (again, something useful for North American visitors).
Location wonderful: two grocery stores a few doors down and wonderful public market just across the street. Close to metro. Walkable distances to river, parks, markets, craft fairs and other sites. Apartment has wifi, is bright, clean, w high ceilings & windows that open, V. good bed & linens, full kitchen which incl a clothes washer (but no detergent). Shower great. Host (Sofia) v. friendly and helpful, responded quickly to inquiries and provided info and advice on specific locations. Lots of cafes near by. A superb base for exploring Porto.

United KingdomNothing major but the beds could've been a little comfier - they were a little hard. We also had a little problem with a blocked shower, but Sofia was apologetic and arranged for someone to take a look at the issue within the day.
Location was great, about a 5/10/15 minute walk to many of the attractions. There's a supermarket downstairs about 2 properties away from the apartment door. Sofia, the host was really helpful with recommendations and came earlier than the check in time allowed to hand us the keys.

PolandThe apartment is very well located. You can easily walk to the river, St. Louis bridge. There are many bars, restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast in Confeitaria do Bolhao is perfect to start a day. Sofia recommended us many places to visit and it was very helpful. You can easily get to apartment by metro (Trinidade station) and the bus to the beach stops in front of your door.

AustraliaThe apartment needs a bit of general maintenance and could do with a more thorough clean, especially in the bathroom. That said, we were quite comfortable during our stay and overall for money was good, thanks largely to Sofia's great communication.
Excellent location opposite the Bolhao mercado and close to the Metro. Walking distance to all old town POIs. Great communication from Sofia about arrival/check in and she gave us some great tips for things to do and places to eat. Touched base on day 3 (of 5) to offer fresh towels/cleaning and provided extra pillows on request.

United KingdomJust be aware it is at the top of 3 flights of stairs. That's all!
Superbly packaged one bed apartment, small but perfectly formed for 3 of us. We specified 2 single beds plus the sofabed. Could have had a double bed if we wanted. Great location at top of historic area of Porto...which is a fabulous city! Surpassed our expectation. Fantastic host, really communicative, allowed us to check in early (at 1.45pm, what a boon!). Lots of great tips of where to go. Big shower and useful kitchen a real boon too

United KingdomThe sofa is broken and can't be used as a sofa bed. You can't sit on it as you slide off it because it won't close properly. The beds are smaller than single and very hard - I don't know how they would work if pushed together to make a king as advertised. There is as almost no room to get along the bed so you need to climb up the bed to get in. The shower does not attach to the wall so you gave to use it as a hand shower.
The location is fantastic. There are loads of great things to do in the immediate area and the market over the road is a huge bonus The air conditioning works beautifully and the flat is impeccably clean.
