How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We had a fantastic stay at this flat. The hosts were incredibly helpful and promptly assisted us when we were confused about how to use the oven. They provided us with a cot for our little one, making our stay even more comfortable. The flat itself is not only functional but also clean a wonderful, well-maintained space that offers great value for money. We highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice, clean, and affordable accommodation option.

Slightly difficult to find on arrival as vehicle access is at the back of the apartment. Apartment was hot - an air conditioner unit was provided., but we just opened the windows which helped. A very minor point, It would have useful to have a rack to hang clothes after washing them - we couldn't find anything in the cupboard
Exceptional apartment, modern, clean and comfortable. Located in the centre of Hemel Hempstead close to the Marlowes shopping complex. Very well equipped including a washer/dryer which was really handy. Also had Sky TV although we didn't have time to take advantage of it!

There is a big problem with parking, there is no parking, you just have nowhere to leave your car, every space near this building was busy, the owners don’t provide any help in finding a place, or reserve a place for this apartment. We found one a little further from the side where there was a sign that residents could park, but the next morning we received a huge piece of paper on the windshield that we created inconvenience for someone, although there were several free spaces nearby (we still don't know if it will end with fine, it spoiled all the impressions). Lack of bedding (sheets) for the sofa (we were three adults and one child), so we used the sofa as a sleeping place for two adults and there was nothing to cover it comfortably. Of course, host was brought to us when we wrote about it, but the sheet was short and not for the sofa, so it created inconvenience and an uncomfortable sleep. Also, some kitchen utensils are missing if you plan to stay there for a long time and prepare food yourself.
Convenient location, warm, modern, clean and new apartment. Beautiful interior.

The property is right next to a bus station, quiet at night but horrendous during the day. And the fumes are pretty hectic. I couldn’t open my window for long. The place isn’t very well ventilated, but I believe that is more the areas problem.
The property was really lovely, well decorated and clean. And very central.
