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...).

SpainThe only thing to be aware of is the steep stairs up to the apartment, as there is no elevator. Carrying heavy luggage might be a challenge, but for me, this was a small detail compared to the overall experience.
I absolutely loved my stay at this apartment in the heart of Brussels. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed — a fully functional kitchen, washing machine, fast Wi-Fi, and even complimentary coffee and snacks. The location could not be better: just a few minutes’ walk from the Grand Place, with restaurants, shops, and attractions all around. Despite being in a lively area, the apartment is surprisingly quiet once the windows are closed, so I had no trouble sleeping. The host, Antonio, was extremely friendly and professional, providing clear instructions for check-in and always available to answer questions. In short, this apartment exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s the perfect base to explore Brussels, and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation. A true 10/10 stay!

LuxembourgIndependent of the great studio, the hard partying til 5-6 o'clock in this area Halles Saint Gery is a bit exagerated. Which can be a problem when trying to sleep with open windows in the summer.
The studio had all amenities one can need, if cooking and washing clothes is needed. Nice personalized decoration. Very central, close to Tram Bourse and Metro De Brouckere. Lots of restaurants, cafés and shops.

RomaniaYou have to consider that this is the center - very noisy, especially from plasticine lovers demanding to be given some free plasticine. Also, it would not hurt to put mosquito nets on the windows.

United KingdomNot a dislike for me personally but other customers might want to be aware of. The flat I booked was on the 5th floor with no lift but it made me keep fit after all the unhealthy eating and drinking I got up to.
The host was very attentive to ensure my stay was perfect. Excellent communication throughout my stay. Careful thought has gone into everything you need and more - even a water filter jug in the fridge to keep the hangovers at bay. Super excellent location - stepping out you are in the middle of a vibie street. If I return to Brussels I will definitely look to book this flat again

MexicoIt would be great if the bedroom had some slim pillows, as all of them were quite thick. Also, the apartment is on the 5th floor, which makes it difficult to carry large luggage.
Great location and modern apartment. It's also very well equipped. The washing machine worked perfectly.

RomaniaIt is a clean, cozy, well-maintained, neat, warm, clean apartment, equipped with pretty much everything you need for a 2-3 day city-break in Brussels. It is located in the center of the old city, close to the Bourse. On the ground floor there are many restaurants and bars. It would seem that the location comes with the usual noise, but it doesn't - once the windows are closed, the noise from outside completely disappears. Nearby you have a subway station 4 minutes away and a bus stop about 7 minutes away, which is very convenient. There are 2 Carrefour stores nearby (aprox 8 minutes walk). The host is extremely welcoming and nice, helpful and attentive to the wishes and needs of the guests. Communication is extremely easy with quick feedback. He was very careful not to miss anything and gave us all the information we needed. The only inconvenience for older people or people with health problems is that the apartment is on the 4th floor of an old building and has no elevator, so it is a small effort. But we knew that in advance from the host and it wasn't a problem for us. I highly recommend. I would like to come back soon!

United KingdomThe advertised narrow staircase to the 5th floor is a challenge with luggage. The apartment is fitted with fans and opening roof windows, but can feel hot.

Very close to center area. Only 5 minutes walk to grand place. Street was noisy at night, but you don’t hear anything in bedroom. Bed was comfortable. Room is clean. There are fridge, washer, oven, cooking equipment etc. Antonio is very thorough with all details for checking in and out.

A fantastic experience in downtown Brussels, the bestest location (around pl. St Géry). A superbly furnished, neat and cozy little apartmnet that is kept and maintained with affection. Coffee and biscuits and milk for the breakfast were ready in the fridge.The host was available (on Booking chat) later in one evening, and managed to help. I particularly liked the ambience and the lights of the apartment. I would not mind moving in here for ever :-)
