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.).

SwitzerlandThe apartment could be more clean (bathroom, carpet, kitchen dishes, ecc.)
The apartment is big enough for a family of five. It's in a perfect position, near the tube station and a road plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, etc.

SwitzerlandThe “double beds” were not as large as expected, only one duvet. For me and my friend it worked fine, for the other two it was a bit too small. The whole apartment smelt like curry, which I didn’t mind as much because the only thing we did was sleep there, there was also mold in the bathroom. The heating didn’t work, we tried multiple times so it was fairly cold in the apartment. There was also lots of already-opened food in the cupboards.
The location was perfect. Just across from The Garage, where we attended a concert, only a minute from the Highbury&Islington station. Has supermarkets nearby and a coffee shop, as well as Pubs and restaurants.

IrelandThe automated door entry keypad thing is unreliable. We couldn't get in at night so had to call them, I recommend they change to a better brand like Nuki.io . As someone else mentioned, if the neighbours are loud you will hear everything as there is an adjoining door (We didn't have that problem, thankfully) but when the cleaner was there you could hear her quite clearly talking on the phone. Would make sense to soundproof this door.
Location is great, right next to H&I tube station. Place has plenty of space. Value for money (I paid €90) you wont get a better option than this place.

United KingdomEverything was fine!
The property was clean and warm, and very easily accessible. The shower was also easy to enjoy, the bedroom cosy, all the films I could want on Netflix big tv screen and the kitchen was well-stocked and easy to use. The staff were very helpful when I rang up to work out how to access the property with the code, which was a new process to me. Thank you, and wishing everyone a Very Happy New Year😀

United KingdomUnfortunately the guests next door were partying until 4-5am & there's a door in the apartment that goes to that other apartment & it was quite loud coming through.
Beautiful, clean apartment with a lovely terrace & comfortable bed as well as a comfortable sofa bed. Shower came with good body wash, shampoo & conditioner, toothpaste also provided although we brought our own. Lovely bunch of snacks, tea & coffee within the full fitted kitchen. Will be staying again if ever needed to come to the area!

United KingdomThe keypad to enter our room was running out of battery, we had to enter the code multiple times as it kept saying “error, low battery” and not letting us in. Eventually we got in. I messaged the host on the Booking.com app saying we were about to go out for the evening, and I was worried that when we got back later that night we wouldn’t be able to get in. They responded saying they had increased the battery level remotely, which I was a bit suspicious of but I accepted it and we went out. When we got back around midnight it took us several attempts to get in because it kept saying “error, low battery” and going blank. We almost thought we were going to be stranded outside in the middle of the night. Thankfully after around 10 attempts the keypad did allow us to open the door.

United KingdomThe whole apartment smelled of cigarette smoke. There were cigarette burns in the doorframe out to the balcony, and a LOT of cigarette butts out there. The couch itself was stained and the bathroom had mould/damp on the ceiling. There is also no lighting in the bedroom area.
Ideal location, and plenty of space, with all the required commodities. Entry/exit is easy, with the smart locks being very useful so I didn't need to worry about keys. The kitchen was good to have, although a few more glasses/utensils would have been nice.
