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.).

GeorgiaGreat Location, Outstanding Hospitality and Thoughtful Service! My friends and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Kolemen Homes and our experience was nothing short of wonderful. The location was superb, providing easy access to Galata tower and some nearby shops. However, what truly elevated our stay was the exceptional hospitality from the super host and the incredibly helpful assistant. From the moment we arrived, the super host and helper man ensured our comfort and satisfaction. Their attentiveness added a personal touch to our experience, making us feel genuinely welcomed. What stood out even more was their thoughtfulness in allowing us to leave our luggage after check-out until our flight. This considerate gesture made our departure stress-free and added an extra layer of convenience to our stay. Combining a prime location with warm, attentive service and the added convenience of luggage storage, Kolemen Homes exceeded our expectations. If you appreciate outstanding customer service, a fantastic location, and thoughtful gestures, I highly recommend choosing this place for your next stay.

The apartment is very conveniently located - right in the center (2 min from Galata Tower) but on a quiet side street. Very cosy, with cute furniture and all the necessary amenities. The check-in/check-out was super-easy.

KazakhstanWas a little noisy, but that was not very crucial.
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Kolemen House. Everything looked so authentic - the walls, the decor. The place is very spacious, a large living room/kitchen, a bedroom downstairs. We were provided a crib, which is always a good bonus. The location is very nice - close to Galata Tower, Taksim and shopping street. Lots of cafes around with very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend this place.

United KingdomThe apartment is quite noisy because of wooden floors throughout (particularly if you're on the ground floor with people above, as we were), but there's no street noise. The Wi-fi is also problematic. Intermittent, sparse and our phones raised security alerts daily which meant we were hardly able to connect. This might not matter if you're just holidaying but if you need to work at all it might prove challenging.
A lovely apartment in the perfect location, tucked away on a quiet street, close to the Galata Tower and one of the loveliest neighbourhoods. We had a delightful stay with our 2 teenagers.

AustraliaNothing really, although staying in this part of town means you need to have good mobility and not mind hills or stairs. Walks to public transport can be a challenge, so we took a taxi when going to and from the airport with our luggage.
The loacation is fabulous, in a very hip and what felt like, safe part of the city. Close to Galata tower, Galata port and Istiklal street. Our host was very fast to respond to questions and let us leave our luggage earlier than our check-in time , which helped us immensely. Great to have a washing machine and iron. I would definitely stay here again.

TurkeyThese are not complaints just info for the people that I wish someone would have told me. first of all since it's not a new building there's no elevator. So keep in mind if you have heavy luggages. Some people write that it was loud, yeah true that you can hear noises of other people but I don't know how much the property responsible for that, instead of grown ups who don't know that they're in a building so they should not make loud noises after at some point e.g 22.00. But my main problem was the bed was squeaking a lot so whenever I move the bed was making sounds and I couldn't have a pleasant sleep during the night.
The location was good, walking distance to main hot spots. My suggestion is to walk around the nice little streets and find a local cafe or restaurant to eat, you won't regret it. The staff was super nice and helpful we made an easy check in and check out with the instructions (fyi you can't pay with credit card). I like the decoration of the home, even though the days we didn't go out we stayed and chilled at home. In the kitchen you can find every utilities you can ask for. The washing machine and the iron also was a plus. In the bathroom there were enough shampoo etc. for the stay. Housekeeping was a nice person. All the best

United StatesGood day, Kolemen Homes! I would like to leave a review on your hotel. Me and my girlfriend stayed there for 3 days and after traveling in Turkey, we decided to stay at your hotel again. To list some of the advantages that we found were: comfortable location - that is everything we needed was nearby, such as bazaars, cuisines, Galata tower; even though the hotel was located next to one of the main roads, it was quiet in our flat; the flat was small, yet everything in it was cozy. We were satisfied with everything and hope to stay at your hotel again when we will visit Instanbul.

RussiaYou need to make the lighting in the living room brighter. But it's not critical.
Good evening to all! We chose these apartments for our vacation and have never regretted our decision. We really liked everything. The apartment has absolutely everything: from the kitchen and all kitchen accessories to the ironing board and iron. There is a washing machine, laundry powder, toiletries, towels and so on. The apartment has a great location: a fairly quiet street, and the Galata Tower is just around the corner. We were very impressed by the narrow streets, vintage shops that were located next to the apartment. We are very glad that we settled here. We are grateful to Hulya, who explained everything to us in detail: how to open the door, where to get the keys and how the payment will take place, since for security reasons from the coronavirus, the settlement takes place contactless. We will definitely come again. Çok teşekkür ederim!

Austria> The place might be the best for two person, or if more, only for short stay. we were 4 people and stayed for a week and two of us were sleeping on the sofa which was not that comfortable, we had back aches after sleeping on that sofa more than two nights. The bed in the bedroom was great though. > our flat was in the firs floor, hence it was quite dark and didn't have good lighting during the day (although we asked for a ground floor flat ourselves, and it is nothing to blame the owner for)
> very nice and accessible owner > very easy to reach > perfect location and neighbourhood (really the best in Istanbul). It is very central and accessible, but also quite, and nearby are full of cafes and restaurants that you can enjoy. > beautiful interior design and cosy
