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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 apartment was described as an aparthotel, we chose it in this basis to avoid private accommodation in tourist locations. This should have come with a transport card. In querying why this wasn't provided it became apparent the owners are listed as private accommodation with the tourist authorities. The information on the site is misleading. There is something going on around the tourist tax and the information provided to clients, as you do not get what you are entitled to.

BrazilBad quality cotton sheets, old tv (not smart tv), courtain not big enough for the window só you don’t have full black out and the door is a few inches from the ground so you have light coming from the hallway all night. Besides that, just as I was leaving, at exactly 10:09 one of the admin came to see how much longer i would take to leave otherwise she would have to charge me (I already had the door open and all my bags holding the door that way, was just checking to see if i had left anything else there so it was clearly unecessary)
Decent place given that it is one of the cheapest options in town. Good towels, good quality dinnerware and Kitchen utensils

United KingdomThey "provide" a coffee machine and kettle but there was no plug in the kitchen area, only plugs are on the ground near bed. So if I want to boil water we had to move kettle to other side of room on the floor, and the heavy coffee machine was thus impossible to use, and it clearly nevwr had been. Also if you think you might need extra towels bring them, as they charge 40chf for 2 additional towels.
Comfortable room close to station and walkable to lake , old town etc (we're in our 20s-30s). Easy entry, nice quick elevator to rooms on higher floors. Balcony was worth the extra payment in the heat, and was cute to look out on city from.

IndiaOur experience at this property was unfortunately very average and fell short of expectations based on the uploaded pictures. The cleanliness was a major concern; the place did not appear as clean as depicted online. Furthermore, the amenities shown in the pictures were not provided. We specifically noted the absence of toiletries, despite them being featured. The bathroom itself was small and unkempt, and similarly, the room had numerous stains, contributing to an overall sense of neglect. While there was a coffee machine, no coffee was supplied. Overall, this was a very unpleasant stay, and I would not recommend this property.
The place is walking distance from the the SBB Station, and some restaurants. It is far from the lake and the main town.

IrelandThe apartment is a little jaded and not especially well designed. The curtains didn’t close properly and the bathroom was very small. The apartment was also quite hot ( even though it was only 20oC outside), with only one small window that could be opened. The kitchen was quite minimal, suitable for breakfast and lunch but not extensive cooking. But overall, these are minor quibbles. Perfectly good value for money, in what is an expensive housing and hotel market.
Very convenient location, close to Lausanne Gare. It was, surprisingly, also a very quiet residential neighbourhood. I had a south facing apartment with a beautiful view of the mountains and Lake Geneva. The apartment was clean and the bed was comfortable. Perfectly fine for a short stay and good value for money in Lausanne. I slept well.

SwitzerlandThe apartment was very small.... to a limit where it was on the edge of becoming impractical to move in it. When you have one or two suitcases around.... The bathroom was also tini with little to no room to put personal stuff. There was a small trolley to put things but, as it did not fit under the sink, it was more of an annoyance than anything else. The shower also very small and would not stay up on the fixture (always fell down so you had to hold it with the hand. The most annoying > the washing basin in the bathroom was clogged. Could I have called someone to fix it? likely. Did I want to complicate my life with that?? NOOO, I did not rent an apartment to deal with its cleaning or maintenance.
The location was very good, quite close to the train station.

BulgariaVery, very slow internet.. during active day - unlit later in the night, basically you need to use your own data. Answering the request for early check in could have come earlier - to prevent me going to the venue.
Location, ease of contactless check-in are top and definitely advantage. It's a pretty basic and a bit older place but I needed the room for a couple of calls and to sleep - the rest of the time I had work outside so it served my needs. The hair dryer worked, warm water was available, normal and functioning shower - all the basics are covered and this is what I was looking for. The coffee maker was a bonus, a recommendations on where to buy coffee could be helpful (or to have a bit of coffee available but it's not realistic for this attractive price).

IsraelMy main criticism is that I wasn't provided with any general information about the facilities - how and where to remove rubbish, how and when the laundry services are available, is cleaning available by request or are there regular cleaning services? I had to guess or figure out on my own by wandering around the property. Such basic information is very important for guests who are staying more than a few nights.
I have stayed here before, so I knew what to expect. This time, I stayed for just over a week. The place is a basic self-catering accommodation. The bed is reasonably comfortable. The kitchenette is pretty minimal. Good enough to make breakfast or warm up prepared meals, but not really enough for cooking. There is no sofa or armchair, only the bed and two simple chairs. Shower and bathroom are fine. There is plenty of storage space provided. The reason I keep returning to this place is that the location is very convenient. It is close to the main rail station, but not in the actual city centre. There are a number of decent to good restaurants along the Bvd. de Grancy, within five minutes walk, as well as several bakeries, cafes, a supermarket and more.

Czech RepublicThe bathroom had bad odour, and there was a big gap (approx. 3 cm) between shower doors so that I had to be super careful not to get the floor wet. Also, the bathroom trash can wasn’t emptied when I checked in, and a staff came next day to clean. Other than that, the room was clean and comfortable.
The location was good - close to the train station. A street where some nice restaurants and supermarkets are located is about 5 minutes from the property.
