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.).

United KingdomI can’t think of anything that would have made it better.
The apartment had everything you would need. Bedroom, living area/kitchen, kettle, washing machine in the back, and a wonderful garden with patio to chill out on. It was a great quiet location and only 400m from the beach.

CanadaThere was nothing that we 'didn't like'. The one thing that was a bit inconvenient was limited storage space. My husband and I had large suitcases, though, so that made a difference.
Our host, Patricio, is the nicest man! He was incredibly helpful. We arranged to have him pick us up at the airport, and it made our arrival and check-in so convenient. We arrived late, and Patricio's wife provided us with some bread, fruit, and cheese because she knew we might not want to head out for dinner. It was lovely! The apartment is small, but it was well equipped with everything we needed to prepare simple meals. The garden out back was an oasis, and the washing machine was very helpful. We would definitely stay again!

Germanyliterally nothing. it was awesome!
The hosts were SO accommodating and kind. I booked at the last minute due to a cancelled flight, and they turned the place around for me so quickly. The facilities were perfect, comfy, clean, and homey. It also included a lovely garden and was incredibly close to the beach and all the restaurants/ services in town. They also shuttled me to and from the airport, gave super helpful tips for the area, and just made me feel really welcomed and safe. That’s always a blessing for a young, single woman travelling alone!! 🖤🖤

DenmarkThe house is very cute and cozy, and the garden is great! The location is perfect, close to everything. Definitely very good value for money. Be aware of a few things: The bathroom walls are not ceiling high, so there is not full privacy. There is not much natural daylight. The door leads right from the living/bed room to the street, hence it might feel a bit exposed. It is a bit damp, but probably only an issue in winter.

And on top of that, the place was ready for us by midday when we arrived, very clean and well equipped! We had a wonderful stay and if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing place for your holiday, minutes walk only from the beach, cafés and restaurants, then this is the perfect place for you!
