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.).

South AfricaOnly thanks to the security staff that made me aware that the check inn process takes long and to make contact with the host. Secondly the bed sheets had blood spots on it and I reached out to the host immediately with photo proof and still no reply back. Nor have I received my deposit back and the place was left as received

South AfricaThe whole apartment in general, it was waste of money. That place has cockroaches everywhere specially in the fridge, it was not very clean upon arrival, the water pressure for the shower is very poor, they left us 2 towels for 7 days, 1 bad quality toilet rolls, the floor stank of cigarettes, there was no enough electricity, the cupboards handles were not well fixed, balcony door does not open properly, the curtains are dirty, that cough is uncomfortable, the pillow and bed are not in good conditions, that fridge is dirty and smell bad inside, bathroom walls and broken door handles making it hard to wipe the floor. I was so disappointed because I did not get what I was expecting, their housekeeper the day I was checking out was even rude to us as if we were stealing something, my advise is they must remove their apartment from this website and do proper maintenance. 🤦🏾♂️
Only the location, that apartment 1002 Four Seasons it is dirty place

South AfricaThe place has cockroaches that is visible, it was not very clean apon arrival, the pan was still greasy in the cupboard... The water pressure for the shower is very poor and the water temperature was not as hot as I would have liked it to be, I showered on its hottest. There is a smart TV that has no satellite connection and the WiFi does not work at all and when trying to contact the person to ask for assistance in this regard, there was no response at all! So the TV is useless you cannot use it unless you have data on your phone to hot spot. There are photos of a washing machine online when booking the apartment but there is no washing machine and the only photo that looks like the apartment is the photo of the art work that hangs above the bed! So in short I definitely did not get what I was paying for! And I am extremely disappointed
