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.).

GermanyDirt and noises. Lots of noises (in- and outdoor as well). But we could sleep because we were tired enough.
The location itself is quite good, but the neighbourhood at night is not for the fainthearted. The host is nice, helpful. If you want a low-budget accommodation and you are 'brave' enough, go for it! Nothing happened during our 3-nights stay, it was just a bit scary for the first time.

SlovakiaI dont’t think the room is suitable for 4 guests. 2 friends of ours were sleeping on an air bed, which was totally flat in the morning.
The location of the house was very good, the great cafeteria was nearby. The King’s Cross station was also very close.

New ZealandThere are a lot of ants in the bathroom and kitchen. Only around 1/3 of a toilet roll was available in the room. Heaters don't work overnight, so the apartment is cool when waking in the morning.
Booked it literally for the night. We'd returned from Europe late, shower was a very welcome sight, brilliant pressure. Location to St Pancras is perfect and a fairly short easy walk. Was good for a bed for the night with no expectations.

New ZealandThe heaters only seemed to work during the day and went off overnight, so it was cold by morning. As we don't use radiators in our country, we weren't sure if there was something we were meant to do. The kitchen was minimally stocked, 1 coffee cup and 2 small tea cups, no large spoons to eat with. A trail of very large ants in bathroom and kitchen, we had no food out, so not sure what they were after. Bed is old, so can feel all the springs, but the linen was clean. Stairs to the bedroom as steep and narrow, so taking luggage down was a scary exercise, and leaving it upstairs is not ideal.
The location was handy to King's Cross station, 15-20 min walk, and bus stop straight outside. It's a small apartment, but ok for 2 people. The shower has amazing water pressure, and it is really hot, which was great. Linen was clean and has a communal washing machine and dryer you can use, just in the hallway outside. However, the cleaner loads it up and leaves till they come back, so to use it, we had to take theirs out, then put it back in when done.

ItalyI have been here with my wife for few days and it has been a nice cozy journey. The landlord accommodated us by giving a mattress needed last minute by my daughter who lives in London in another flat but wanted to join us for a night and they left us the mattress in the flat. Very nice from you, thank you! Very close location to Caledonian Road station and Kings Cross so nice area.

United KingdomThe shower was head was clogged woth limescale, the shower itself was mouldy and not cleaned. The extractor was not working therefore there was a bad smell in the bathroom which filled the living area. The sofa bed was uncomfortable, and the spare bedding for the sofa bed didn't smell very clean, and made the guest uncomfortable.

AustraliaAlthough the property has potential, the cleanliness of the property was poor. The bathroom was not cleaned well, the shower was dirty and so were the floors. The bed was uncomfortable and badly sunk in the middle. Lucky there was a couch to sleep on because 2 people would of been a disaster in that bed.
The location was ideal, we were international travellers so being close to St Pancras international train station was very handy.

United KingdomThe bed was broken and it was very uncomfortable for sleeping. I mentioned this, however the reply was vague, ("this will be fixed soon") so I knew it would not be fixed before I left. I ended up with a makeshift remedy using pillows under the mattress to bolster it. The set up is very basic, so don't expect luxury - for example there is one very well used knife, no chopping board and cheap bedding. There was no hand wash or soap in the bathroom, only an abundance of shampoo. From reading other reviews I knew it would be basic, so if you are okay with that then this place will be perfect. The toilet needs a proper good clean!
Location was good - very near the Business Design Centre, where I was working for a week. The shower was good and hot. Enjoyed the Netflix / TV options included. The heating was not working when I arrived and this was sorted quickly. I appreciated the snacks on arrival.
