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 KingdomIt needed a good clean. It was very dusty with dead flies on the window fill. We upgraded to a balcony but this was dirty and needed some TLC. So very disappointed. The communication from the team prior to our booking was poor and conflicting information including the wrong postcode leading us to the wrong entrance. Staff we spoke to knew about this as it happens regularly- so why not correct it in the instructions?
Perfect location for Cardiff city and the bay. Generous sized accommodation.

United KingdomI came by rail, so after a 3 hour journey, I did not appreciate the storm that met me when leaving the station, nor the walk down to Century Wharf ( could have taxi'd, but needed exercise after sitting for so long) No meet and greet, and struggled to find the correct office/reception, where I was handed an envelope, after asking apartment location, and told it was all in the envelope. Then experienced difficulty (still raining hard) in finding building/room, until a maintenance worker showed me where to go and how to access building etc., OK after that, just glad to get into the warmth of apartment.
The apartment was excellent - very warm and welcoming, smelt fresh and clean, and was indeed so. Everything needed to make a successful stay was provided for, and the little extra's like tea bags, milk and various toiletries. Lovely bed, very comfortable = good sleeps each night (no noise at all!) Brilliant view over Taf, with lots of boating/cycling activities around the river. Could not fault location, cleanliness and thoughtful extra's.

United KingdomWhen arriving at the Concierge office to collect keys, the people working at the reception desk quite coldly gave us an envelope and didn't say much. No questions asking if we had visited before or any friendliness. The opening times of the leisure facility were also inaccurate. The sign in the leisure centre showed different closure times on Saturday compared to the welcome pack and what actually happened on the Saturday we stayed.
I liked the area, on site facilities and how easy it was to find everything.

NorwayThe pots and pans were not cleaned properly so i didnt end up using it alot. I had to wash the frying pan twice before i felt comfortable using it.
Location was amazing, gated community is nice. The view was magical, i obviously got upgraded so i got a bit more for my money than i would have. Every thing was very well informed. It was easy to understand and the people was very nice.

United KingdomIt was not easy to find the main reception when walking from the station. It is was the far side as one continues along the main road, and will not be the first one you see.
A great apartment. A really good size for three to four people with two good sized bedrooms, bathrooms and a decent living room. The beds were all comfortable, and any problems were quickly resolved by the staff. The gym was good.

AustraliaKitchen items such as glasses could do with a bit of a refresh and it would have been good to have some pantry staples such as oil/pepper/salt available. Being a managed facility it felt less personal when dealing with staff than either other accommodation we had dealt with on our trip

NetherlandsOur arrival wasn't the greatest experience and felt somewhat sketchy at first, we wanted to arrive between 5/6 at first so I told them by a chat message. This was completely fine, but because we changed plans, I told them we will be arriving at 9/10. So at 21:30 we tried to check-in but had no idea where to go. Maps was mentioning multiple locations so it was a little hard to find where we exactly had to be. After some walking in the dark for 30 minutes, we asked around and got by the receptionist. There we got the keys and a map to the apartment. From that point everything was really nice. So it felt a little sketchy and little unsafe at first cause it was dark and cold and no idea where to go, but from the moment we knew, it was amazing. Also small little things that could have been better: - There is no vacuum cleaner or dustpan, so if you spill some crumbs you can't really clean it efficiently. So we felt a little bad how we had to leave the apartment (wasn't a mess of course but it's a nice gesture to leave it relatively clean). - Pillow wasn't the best, but you do get two so that kinda makes up for it. - It was a little cold in apartment, and never really got warm, but it wasn't that bad. If believe you can adjust it but it wasn't very clear or not working. But I still had a great experience and would go again!
The apartment was amazing, it's very beautiful, it felt really clean, lots of things you can use. The staff was very friendly, not only by chat and on the phone, but just in general lovely people that felt really welcoming. I had an amazing experience and would definitely consider going again if I'm near. You also get a map of the area where you are, documents how to check-out, the Wifi password, how to make the shower hot, some stuff about the pool. So they really make sure you have the information you need. If you for a nice accommodation where you like to spend some time in, love to use a pool from time to time and don't mind walking 15/20 minutes to the main city of Cardiff. This could be a perfect place for you!

United KingdomThe staff weren't helpful, just handed me an envelope with no words or guidance where I was going. Where my space was, where the numbers for them were, and where to find my apartment in a big complex. Also, it would have been nice to have had some basic cooking bits. Oil, salt and pepper etc.
The apartment was clean and tidy and comfortable, and the view across the river from the balcony made me very happy. The shower was good and I just really loved staying there.
