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.).

United KingdomThe shower was a little underwhelming although it is par for the course, we are just used to something a lot more powerful.
Modern spacious apartment style accommodation with character and a fantastic view over the north Nottinghamshire countryside. Equipped with pretty much everything you need and some nice additional touches. The bed was really comfortable. Communication from the host was fantastic throughout.

United KingdomCouldn't quite understand the microwave timer system - but that was probably me as I am useless with tech.
Everything about the the apartment was spot on for what I needed. The kitchen, bathroom and bedroom were all in immaculate shape. The biscuits on the table and the milk in the fridge were particularly nice touches. The highest praise is that I would come back for a holiday/leisure stay any time! I am sorry I left in a rush - almost later for work - but I hope you found the keys OK on the kitchen table. Thanks for having me.

United KingdomI didn't experience anything I didn't like.
The Old School Loft was fantastic. Set in the most beautiful area with views to die for. Great welcome by Jane when I arrived which was lovely. The apartment itself was to a high standard and I couldn't have asked for anything better. I'll definitely be returning.

United KingdomThere was no recycling bin & the steps to the front door are steep with a big bag but that is the nature of the building. The hand rail makes them perfectly useable.
Comfy, cosy, self contained. Clean & modern. All the things I needed & good location for my training course.

United KingdomWe would have preferred to have blinds on the windows in the living area, and the door, just to add a bit more privacy and ensure it’s not too bright in the mornings (like the one in the bedroom). Other than this really minor inconvenience, we loved it.
I was very happy with the cleanliness of the place and the amount, and variety of appliances to use. We also appreciated the streaming service on the TV, view from the door and the comfy big bed and privacy of the property.

United KingdomWe enjoyed our stay at the Old School Loft, it has been converted very well, providing clean and comfortable accommodation, and parking was available in front of the property. It was conveniently located for us to visit family living nearby. So there is every possibility we will stay here again. The kitchen is very well equipped, the dining area sufficient, and the lounge area is comfortable, the bed was really comfy and a good night's rest was had. Thank you Jane for being so helpful, and for the bottle of wine and shortbread, both were thoroughly enjoyed!

United KingdomBeing rather tall I struggle to sleep in beds that have an end to them that block my feet from overhanging so I didn't sleep very well either night.
The view from the property is exceptional, sitting at the kitchen table and working whilst looking out the door was excellent. Especially being able to enjoy a nice glass of Pinot Grigio with a couple of ice cubes provided by the host. The apartment has recently been refurbished to a very high standard, it had every you could need.
