Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomKeys are collected from a nearby hotel. The hotel told me they have their own parking, but it was not possible to reserve a space. They also told me I could use the car park at Plaça de San Cristóbal for a discounted price. When I arrived at the hotel there was no sign of any parking spaces belonging to the hotel so we went to the car park - which proved something of a challenge since Google maps doesn't seem to know where the entrance is. Note that to get discounted parking you need to have the hotel stamp your ticket, and pay the cashier - not using the machines.
Good location.

United KingdomA map showing where to collect the keys from where the apartment is would have been handy as it's only around the corner, but if you don't know the location can be a bit frustrating. Considerably loud at night with late night bars literally outside your doorstep & bin men emptying bins at 1.30AM.
The location is superb. Right in the centre of old town, with bars literally on your door step. Can be a bit loud for families, but for younger groups is perfect. Nothing a good pair of ear defenders can't sort out.

United KingdomThe apartment is above a street with a lot of nightclubs. It is quite well soundproofed but ear plugs helped block it out completely.
The location in the old town was great - a wonderful cafe called Coffee Madness round the corner which was fab for breakfast and amazing coffees. The apartment had everything you needed, lovely and clean and Juliette balconies with a line to peg up wet towels and swimming costumes.

United KingdomProperty very tired, not like the photos. Flooring, tiles, sockets, cracked, split, broken. Could do with some TLC. Not clean under beds, looked like it had not been cleaned for months. Had little kitchenware and 4 coffee pods, nothing else, not one sachet of sugar, UHT milk, salt, pepper, nothing. Very uninviting in my opinion.
Location was great. in the old town Not so much having to park to get to the hotel to get the keys and parking instructions! I think they could at least explain this before arrival (and how much it costs)

BulgariaThe apartment furniture is old - the rooms are clean and repainted bur everything else is depreciated. The apartment that we booked from booking was quite different from what we actually got - it seems they only show the renovated apartments with the nice view but there is no guarantee that you will get one of them although you book a specific apartment with specific images.
Everything is very well organised and you can check in at any time. The personnel from the reception is very kind and helpful and provides all necessary information. The location is great.

United KingdomI contacted the provider to inform them that there was a problem with the bed. A few of the Lathes broken away from the fixings meaning that there was no support for the mattress. The metal bed frame had movement in it and was probably why the Lathes brackets were broken. I reported this to the provider via Whats App and they replied that would have a look at it. Unfortunately no did and the bed was unusable meaning that I had to sleep on the settee. In my opinion this was not acceptable. Also I forgot to mention that one of the six dinning chairs looked unsafe to sit on as the legs were very insecure.
Location was fine.

United KingdomNothing - it was really good.
This property is slap bang in the heart of the old town and was a fantastic location for the Festival de San Juan. You have to be prepared to deal with a bit of noise on festival nights but that is what you are there for. Its a big apartment, with good size bedrooms and beds, two showers and fabulous air con. Plenty of space for everyone. We didn't use the kitchen as we were eating out but everything looked OK.
