How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The lift wasn’t working which wasn’t ideal when we have two toddlers, two prams and luggage to carry up to the third floor. Also the glass tables were a nightmare as they were perfect head height for the children and would’ve done some damage if they had hit themselves on them. Some of the amenities didn’t work (dishwasher had an error code, so the fan at the bottom wasn’t spinning) or were so dirty we didn’t want to use them (the kettle was covered in limescale so we boiled the water on the hob).
The layout and size of the apartment was great, and was perfect for the kids to run around in (without worrying about stairs etc!). The location was also really good, and was close to the metro! It was nice having a balcony on the front, and it was nice to sit out in the sun. We also liked not having to worry about a key, so having an app to unlock everything was handy.

There was a door code and it was in an email that I hadn't read. I rang the owner and she directed me to the email. I had to faff around a bit, should have read the email properly before I had arrived. It's a bit fiddly, but worked fine.

The Tv don't work for the 3 nights we were there. Something to do with internet connection and messages in Spanish. When I informed Cristina, she did send someone to check the next day but didn't manage to fix the issue though. In the room with bunk bed, the bed was a lil squeaky when climbing up and down the bed
The apartment is really beautiful and comfortable in nice building. Location is very convenient with cafes, restaurants and supermarket nearby. Cristina was nice and responsive

The door was very heavy and at points felt like it wasn't opening well or at all. Reliance on phones to open door is fine for the younger generation but a key for the older generation would be easier.
It was very easy and felt secure. Apartment felt secure and could only be opened near it. Instructions given via message which outlined the necessary steps to enter the property securely even when the first link did not work.

Some of the appliances like the kettle we're a little tired / not working, but overall the kitchens were good.
Huge spacious flat with high ceilings and great natural lighting. Clever door-locking system meant that we each didn't have to coordinate sharing a set of keys. Would stay again, great place to stay longer term

The property wasn't clean enough. The facilities are old. The apartment is large, but there are 2 kitchens which are redundant and in both of them there wasn't even a normal kettle. There are no windows in rooms where sunlight can go through. The furniture is worn out.
We liked the location as it is easy to get to major attractions.
