Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomWe could not find a property from the first time. We tried to contact the owner several times but hi never answered. So there was no communication with the owner at all:(. The flat had a noisy floor. And we couldn't find an empty parking space next to the property.
Good local, cosy apartment .

United KingdomDirections given to find the apartment and lockbox were very poor. Originally given the incorrect lockbox code. Phone numbers provided in emails when we needed assistance were not answered. Extremely frustrating. Had to knock apartments close by for help to tell me where apartment 5 Timber Section was. Steep Iron Staircase to enter the building. Nice apartment once inside. Very noisy at night. Outside traffic and people going about their business. Being a wooden structure soundproofing is poor. We could hear pretty much everything that went on in the apartment above. Conversation and television. 4.30 am Saturday Morning and 02.00 Sunday Morning. If we had known about this beforehand we would never have booked this apartment.
Good size,clean and comfortable. Everything that a couple would need for a 2 night stay was available in the apartment.

United KingdomAbit dated- tv quality wasn’t good, with no access to things like iplayer or streaming services. Only 1 thin pillow per person. A welcome letter with information regarding using the flag would have been appreciate. Not the letters fault but neighbours were very noisy in the early hours.
Clear instructions to get into property, tidy little apartment.

United KingdomCar parking may be an issue, if others have parked already. There is a car park in the adjecent road, but with luggage one may struggle. A bit rusty look to the old mill converted apartment on the outside and corridor but inside is clean and neat, Some windows do not have handles. Beds are comfy but squeak when rolled.
Location was excellent, right next to main road of Dover. Walkable to many shops, and easily reachable by car to Dover Castle and White Cliff walk in 5-10 mins. Great value for money.

United KingdomThe towels were dirty they gave us hardly any toilet roll. Windows don't stay open. Empty tablet boxes an blister packs were found in the bed side drawer. The fridge froze all our stuff. The fairy liquid was watered down. The shower door doesn't close properly. Fire alarm missing from the front room. Dvd remote doesn't work clock doesn't work. Fire extinguisher doesn't have a fire safety tag but it's used as a door stop which isn't good when u got 2yr old staying which was stated on the booking

United KingdomWe got there and the hallway leading to the apartment smelt really bad, the apartment itself was nice to begin with until you looked closer at things, the fridge smelt so bad we was unable to use it because when you opened it the whole room smelt like rotten cheese, there was limescale build up in the sink and the tap dripped constantly, the shower was still dirty as you can see in the pictures, then to top it all off we was unable to sleep due to the constant banging from upstairs, it literally sounded like a fight going on up stairs, we couldn’t leave as we didn’t have the extra money so had to deal with it but will not stay here again
The interior looked nice

United KingdomAs we visited during the summer month it was extremely hot in there. The windows unfortunately did not hold up in our room causing further warmth. The noise wasn’t the best but it wasn’t a major issue as it is on the main road!
The pictures don’t do the apartment justice actually. It is a nice clean apartment which is very well laid out. Clearly it has been used and we could see that but really was not bad at all.

United KingdomThe code I was given did not work in the key box I found, this was because there were TWO number 5 apartments in building, and after trying unsuccessfully to ring the numbers I had been given for emergencies I managed to find a man who informed me that the apartment was around the corner of the building, and there was another key box. He unlocked this, gave me the keys, only to find there were 34 steps (3 staircases ) to be climbed to reach the apartment ! This for two people with mobility problems was no joke. This apartment should be advertised as unsuitable for people with mobility problems.
