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.).

The host is very attentive to your needs. The apartment is well maintained and it has everything you need for your stay (well equipped kitchen: stove, microwave, kettle, toaster, etc) the complimentary coffee pods are absolutely brilliant. We were a family of 4 adults and the two sleeping on the sofa bed slept as well as the ones sleeping in the main bedroom. Keys drop off was smooth.

United KingdomUnfortunately, I have bad hips and the only thing to warn anyone with the same affliction would be that the bath with over shower was difficult to get out of because it was very high. Everything else was great.
Faruq was a brilliant, responsive host. He gave clear instructions for getting into the flat. Information on where to eat and things to do. Very generous with bottled water, Tassimo pods and toiletries. The flat was clean and had all the facilities needed and space for a family of 3. Was slightly worried about location, but it was actually great. 10 minute walk to Tower Bridge and Tower of London and close to lots of shops and places to eat and 10 minute walk to underground stations. Made it a great short stay in London.

SingaporeAs this unit was on the second floor, we have to close the curtains as the unit is visible from the side road/walkway as there are people standing outside chatting and would usually look inside the house. Unless you are not too concerned about privacy, the curtains would have to be closed most of the time.
Location was quite good. you need to walk 15 minutes to Tower Hill Station. The kitchen has full facilities, which is good for travelers who want to cook, but the floor would be left sticky as it doesn't come with a kitchen hood, which could be remedied by wearing pair of shoes.

GermanyThe location might not feel super safe but we had absolutely no problem.
Good position at only 10 minutes walk from the Tower of London, close to the public transport. The apartment Is cosy and has all one needs for a self catering accomodation, including coffee machine, microwave, washing machine and dishwasher. The host was really helpful, answered our messages very fast and helped us a lot by facilitating an early check in. Good value for money, also!

SingaporeWe were quite dismayed with the carpets as they seemed quite dirty. It would be good if the carpets are removed if it's too expensive to have them cleaned. Personally I rather step on cold floor than endure dirty ones. The location is not near shops and can feel less safe at night as we walk along the quiet streets. Lastly I wish to remind guests who, like us, checked out in the morning but went back to the accommodation later to collect luggages after the cleaner has cleaned the apartment. We were careful not to mess up the place but unfortunately the guests before us didn't. Instead of a freshly made bed, our sofa bed looked like someone had sat on it, as there was a huge dent and the bed looked sunken in where it has been sat on.
The host is generous with good quality toiletries, laundry detergent pods, coffee and tea capsules, even provided an unopened bottle of mulled wine. There were numerous hangers to hang our clothes too. I tried the Turkish restaurant recommended by the host and it turned out to be the best meal I had during my 12 days in London.
