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.).

United KingdomSpiral staircase might not be suitable for everyone especially if they have mobility issues.
Great location for the Excel centre which was just over the road. Jerry was a wonderful host & he kindly left complimentary items - milk, bread, wine, chocolates..etc, cupboards were stock with all the basics. Basically anything we needed could be found in the property! Rooms were a great size and the property was kept clean & to a high standard. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

IrelandNo issue.
I like the idea, that the place is really tidy, clean, and that there are plenty of towels, bedding etc provided. Also, parking was sorted for us. After a long journey, it was lovely to see that we did not have to go shopping, as basics are always provided, e.g toilet roll, bread, milk, cheeses, and sweets, biscuits for those of us who have the sweet tooth! etc. It's just ideal. Just what one needs when they go on a trip. No stress either, as the host is always available and accommodating. I had accidently put in that we were arriving at 10am, whereas we did not get there until evening, and that was no problem either. Well done Jerry.

Our family of six thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in August this year The apartment is modern and stylish; spaciously set across 2 floors, just as depicted in the pictures. The apartment was very clean,comfortable and had everything that we needed, plus extras. (Chocolates,ice-cream and wine in the fridge were an unexpected but welcome touch!) We particularly liked the large windows and balcony view on to the forecourt which added to the sense of spaciousness. It was great to be able to sometimes just sit and observe all the comings and goings outside from the comfort of the apartment Location was perfect - right next to Excel convention centre making it ideal for our 3 day convention in the centre which we were there to attend. Jerry our host was great.He provided us with all necessary information about the apartment and the area from the outset, and he remained easily contactable throughout our stay at the apartment and afterwards too. Ernest, the building manager was also very helpful and quick to respond to any queries.He met us outside the apartment at the agreed time to hand over the keys and explain features of the apartment. When we had a small issue with the car parking situation he was able to see to it that it got rectified promptly and efficiently. We look forward to our next stay in the apartment Highly recommended apartment!!

Our host Jerry was superb! Communication was super easy. All of our family (11 people) really enjoyed the apartment, snacks/drinks that were provided free of charge. We also value good connection with City of London as there is Elizabeth line nearby. If our family ever go to London we will definitely come here again.

SwitzerlandThere was an issue with hot water for shower, but it could be fixed with a bit of waiting. There is a fold down couch in the living room which is medium comfy, main issue with that sleeping spot is that there is a super bright light outside that is not even nearly dimmed by the thin curtains.
We really loved staying at this apartment. It is just next door to London Excel. Thanks to the Elizabeth line which is 3min away it is super easy to get to from the airport and downtown. Jerry is a fantastic host! He provided us with a lot of information. He also stuffed the fridge with drinks and a bit of food, and there was plenty of coffee to make us happy as well. It felt a bit like home to have all of this available.

United KingdomThey didn't bother us too much, but the toilet brushes needed replacing (suggest cheaper disposable), the shower head angling was awkward, the heating/hot water was a little bit of a work-around, and one of the couches was a bit light on upholstery. We only mention these as minor observations, overall it was great.
Location was superb: quiet, yet close to amenities, parking, and Excel. Host was extremely helpful, particularly in getting us parked. Very comfortable and spacious.
