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):
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.).

United KingdomExceptionally clean apartment and very comfortable beds! Great location close to the train station and shop. Cooking facilities and provided utensils/equipment all good. Left chocolate and some waters which was a lovely touch The ceiling height could be an issue for some, my 6ft 4 husband could just about stand up in the middle of the lounge and in the main bedroom. Also could do with a hook or space to hang things in the second bedroom. The curtains were very thin (net curtains) so there wasn’t the amount of privacy I’m used to, particularly when showering at night I felt I had to with the lights off.

The property is well-located, just ten minutes walking from the train station. There is also a bus station next to it. The apartment was clean and it is very good for a short stay.

GermanySome of the "non-stick" pans in the kitchen are scratched; it would be safer to replace them with ordinary metal pans (since non-stick pans get scratched so easily). A colander to drain pasta would be good too.
A well-equipped flat with beautiful views. It's cleverly arranged, and a lot is packed into a small space - the kitchen is great for a holiday flat, with a proper cooker and oven, and quite a few cooking utensils. The location is basically perfect - a few minutes from the train station, the cross country skiing trails, the shops, and everything else. The owner reacted immediately when we messaged to ask if they could turn the heating up, and they sorted it out straight away.

Hong KongThere IS hot water, unlike the first reviewer said, but the water pressure is so low it’s hard to get wet under it! Fine for summer, but expect it would be an issue when skiing.
Bed was lovely and comfortable. Owner moved his car so we could park ours, which was nice. The apartment is nice, small, and clean. Watch you don’t bump your head if you’re taller than 5’8”!! Good little kitchen with everything needed. A little balcony to sit out on. TV with satellite channels. All in all we liked it!

AustraliaThe apartment is surrounded by scaffolding and being painted, so you can't park there anymore. It is a construction site with half bult roof, tools everywhere, and just really messy. The photos are very misleading, with the beautiful mountain views being shot out of the skylight in the toilet. And the rooms are much smaller than they appear. The apartment is generally in bad condition with lights zapng when switched on or off. Broken rail on the tiny balcony and parts of the steeps leading up to the apartment are also broken. The shower is also in the bedroom, very weird. Before arrival, we were told there was no longer parking and when we asked where was the best for us to park we never received an answer. We found paid parking 12 swiss Frank 24 hours about 10 minutes walk away. This wasn't the closet but was cheapest. The close parking was 30. For 24 hours.
Good location as advertised in the apartment but the photos are very misleading.

United StatesNeither the host/owner, nor Booking.com was helpful in this situation. Though we were initially assured that because the listing was incorrect, we would not be responsible for payment of this day. We never received a refund. We spent hours on the phone with booking and contacted the host multiple times. We are very disappointed in this service and hope that the listing will be changed to reflect the fact that there is no air conditioning so that future customers will not be misled the way that I was.
Prior to arrival at this property, I reached out to the host to verify the fact that it had air-conditioning as our stay was happening during an extreme heat wave. He responded that there was no actual air conditioning only fans in this attic apartment. I told him that because we had reserved the apartment based on the description of air conditioning. We would not be staying there and expected a refund due to the misleading listing.
