How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewLocation. Spacious shower. There is mini fridge. A/c in one of the rooms.
THERE IS NO PARKING AT PREMISES (main reason I booked this was free parking possibility). You need to find parking on streets by yourself. It's free from 17 to 09, but still. Apartment is falling apart :)

Verified reviewGreat central location just a stone throw away from all the facilities and attractions. Easy access to the accommodation with clear instructions received from the owner.
Apartment was relatively small and could have been a bit cleaner.

Verified reviewExcellent location, above a restaurant very close to everything. On the banks of the Meuse with lovely views. We found a covered car park a short walk away, just needed to top up each morning, relatively cheap.
Bathroom wasn't good, no window, no fan so a bit smelly. Certainly could do with updating. Not fair to comment but day temperatures were in the early 30s and this fourth floor apartment was in the roof space so got very hot. A portable fan helped though

Verified reviewSelf-check in was easy, code provided via email. Floors had been swept. Beds were comfortable. Location is great.
Furniture was old and dirty. Blue suede couch was brown and shiny in spots from wear and age. Dining table chair cushions were torn. Coffee maker flooded water all over the kitchen counter. No hand soap provided in bathroom or kitchen. No curtains provided at huge windows across entire wall facing river so the afternoon and evening sun, on the hottest day of the year, super-heated the entire apartment. Contrary to Booking.com details, there is no a/c in this suite but there are 2 pedestal fans that can be moved into the bedrooms at night to push around the hot air. Hotel-specified details of 'hardwood or parquet flooring' are a lie, it is cheap vinyl that sags and creaks. Free toiletries? Well, there's wall-mounted shampoo and shower gel, which is nice but not a substitute for hand soap. Not the hotel's fault, but there was an unfortunate-looking spill (vomit??) in the stairwell on our departure, so another resident sometime overnight had caused a mess and it still hadn't been cleaned up by 10am. Cable tv channels? Maybe, but we couldn't get any reception on the tv. All in all, this was ok for the one night we needed to spend on route to our final destination. I would have been complaining in person if we were staying longer as the suite didn't live up to the details provided on the website.

Verified reviewWorked great for our family. Couldn’t quite remember what I had booked and was a little worried on entry. You just get a code that opens the main door and room door, it is very small basically a narrow door leading to a staircase but the room was great. It is basic but clean. For our family of 4 the room door opened to a little hallway with the bathroom and there were two bedrooms one set up with two twin beds and one with a king. In the bigger room there was a little fridge, desk and small table. Nothing was fancy and it felt almost like a dorm room but everything was clean and comfortable. The bigger room had ac, the secondary room was a little Tonware but it was VERY hot while we were there and it was still manageable. The location was great! Right in the center. Sebastien was very good about responding to any questions we had immediately.
Water pressure was a little low.

Verified reviewFantastic location, perfect view, friendly and attentive staff, large apartment, surprisingly good sound insulation from the outside noise.
Keep in mind there is no elevator/lift, so if you are staying on the 3rd or 4th floor that might be an issue for some.

Verified reviewLocation. The apartment is situated under the Citadel and across the road from the Adlophe Sax statue and museuum. The view from the apartment is fantastic, with plenty hapoening to keep us amused.
The stairs are not for the faint-hearted! We were on the top floor so a lot of stairs to reach our magnificent viewpoint.
