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.).

OmanToo expensive for its facilities . I choose to stay in it because it has a small gym . The gym was so primitive , the cables were all very loose that only needed tightening , i have spoken to the reception over three days , each time they tell me it will be fixed , it’s fixed , but nothing of that at all . I had to go to a other private gym and pay for entire of my stay , nine days
Room are specious , comfortable , and clean Staff are very kind and humble and professional

GermanyThe electricity went off twice and the lady at the reception couldn‘t care less. She said „Put the fuse back in.“ To which I replied „I‘m not an electrician .“ She answered „Me neither!“
Kitchen, bathroom and bedroom with dining table and wardrobe. Tiny but comfortable. Secure parking and good accessibility to the city centre. Supermarket close by.

ItalyBreakfast is not worth the money that you are actually paying. A selection of cereals, oatcakes, shortbread and a loaf of bread with milk and orange juice. I am not saying it wasn't nice or enough for the all of us but if you are hoping in a "hotel breakfast" you will be a bit disappointed.
The aparthotel was in a perfect location, 2 minutes walking distance from the old town and maybe 10 from Edinburgh Castle. The rooms were nice and big and all the facilities were working perfectly. We booked an apartment for 5 and after a couple of troubles at the beginning of our stay, everything went smoothly.

CanadaA better quality of bread and more muesli or granola type cereal instead of the typical empty calorie cereals would have been nice. Better instructions for the washer/dryer would be beneficial too.
It was nice to have food on hand to cover breakfast and snacks. The cheese slices were a nice touch. The location was excellent. Good access to tourist sites but fairly quiet.

United KingdomSome of the kitchen cupboards where showing their age, nothing major, just minor things.
The location is excellent for central Edinburgh. The apartments are good for a group, particularly one apartment some of our group had on the top floor, which had extra space and a pleasant dinning area with skylights. Some basics provided (tea, coffee, milk) when you arrive, shops close by for buying any provisions you need. Car parking available, £20 a night, which is not unreasonable for secure parking where the car is easily accessible.
