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.).

AustraliaThe extra shower wasn’t good to use so all used the one shower in a bath. Unfortunately the one toilet was in that room which was awkward with 5. Better use of shower room as an extra toilet.
Good location with lots of choice for eating out plus public transport. Plenty of space for a party of 5 adults. Had everything we needed available.

AustraliaBathroom looking a bit shabby around the edges and couldn’t easily close bathroom door. Be good if could not leave Henry the Hoover in the entryway hallway as looks a bit unkempt, disorganised. A dryer would have been nice but understand not essential.
Spacious and light apartment, lovely high ceilings, modern kitchen, good sized bedrooms, comfortable beds, close to restaurants and public transport, good shower, washing machine, 2 hair-dryers, convenient for everything, quiet internally.

United KingdomOne of the sofas was rather hard, but otherwise nothing. Advice to not use the car park App would be useful- charged us £82 for 48 hours!

United Kingdom2 loos would have been good instead of 1 and some of the windows didn’t lock, the flat was quite warm so we had to open them for a through draft. Take into account the fact you will have to pay for parking and pre-book, it was £50 for a weekend and a 5 min walk plus £2 on the bus each way to town but easier than driving in the centre for sure.
Big airy rooms and plenty of space. Just round the corner from the bus stop into town. 2 showers was good as we had 5 staying. Enough linen/towels crockery and cutlery.

CroatiaThe apartment was great. It was clean, quiet and comfy. Even though we were out and about most of the time, we loved getting back to it. The beds are a bit on the harder side (for me) and we had problems trying to figure out how/when the heating works 😅 but other than that, you have everything that you need. One of us ended up in a hospital the last day and they were kind enough to prolong our check out time. The customer service was nice and understanding. Also, the place is a short walk from everything you need (might not seem like that on the map but when you're there it's easy to get around). All in all, loved this place!
