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.).

SwitzerlandCoffee machine did not work. Capsules fell through to the bottom reservoir unused. We also found it difficult to obtain visitor passes.
Very cute and comfortable apartment, centrally located. We also enjoyed the outdoor area and dedicated parking space.

United StatesThe room with 3 beds has no windows and a very small fan. In the winter ski season this is fine, but in the summer months it can be stuffy and too warm.
It is within walking distance to the gondola station for Oscheninsee and it had an included parking space. Also, enough beds for 5 guests along with a washing machine is a plus.

SlovakiaParking. We arrived with two cars and we could only use one parking spot. We had to look for public parking (the payment was complicated) for a while and then we ended up parking at nearby hotel for 15 CHF a day.
We stayed here for three nights. I was looking for accommodation in Lauterbrunnen but came across this little place as this was the most affordable option for us. What a surprise! The location of this place could not be any better. We loved the surrounding area and even though we were exhausted after long days of exploring we still managed to squeeze in a late evening walk as everything was so close and beautiful around us. The place was ok, it was somewhat updated however the bathroom was very dated (that could definitely use an update). The pillows were worn and uncomfortable but it is not a dealbreaker. In the end of the day, we had a safe place to stay and we had everything we needed for a nice stay in the beautiful town of Kandersteg…for a great price! I was happy we could use the washer and do our laundry!

NetherlandsThe landlord live in 1 and 2 floor, so sometimes their footsteps can be heard, might due to the old wooden structure of the house. But this was acceptable, it was not that loud and frequent. Despite the sound insulation, the shower was not convenient as I expected. The water coming out from tub was too slow to fit with the big flow from shower, it took a while, but similarly, we weren’t bothered by that.
Nice location near the train station. Everything was clean and nice once I walked in, there was dish washer, fridge, bathroom and two bedrooms. Landlords are really kind.

SwitzerlandI wish there would be more toilet paper than just half of the roll for three people and two nights. We couldn’t find it anywhere. The bathroom should be renovated because there were mold stains in some places.
The location is great! It’s literally 5 min from the cable car. There was a nice welcome message and chocolate waiting for us. There are colorful lights in the master bedroom. The feel was nice.

IsraelSecond bedroom doesn't have any windows, so its hard to ventilate.
Location is great! Kandersteg is a beautiful town, the views are amazing and you get to enjoy them from the bedroom window. everything is within minutes walk. The apartment is nice and cozy, and even though it is located on the main road, it is quite. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is small, but has most amenities needed for small meals. Another plus is a shared washer and dryer in the basement.

AustraliaThe apartment needs some upkeep. Esp bathroom. The shower was in the bath, dangerous for some people getting in and out, plus it was slippery. A bath mat would be useful, we used a small towel to stand on. The situation on the main road meant the apartment and especially one of the bedrooms was noisy, even at night. We could also hear noise from the apartment above (chairs grating etc)
The apartment was great, with large bedrooms and plenty of space for four people. The owner was happy to restock the coffee pods. Having a coffee maker was a bonus.

MalaysiaThe toilet only had one small lightbulb and was super dim, it was also very dangerous because of the poor lighting. The space was kind of tight especially the kitchen. At the door of each room there is a different elevation level so people might trip and fall which isn't too great.
The environment was nice and the host provided a fan in one of the rooms that had no windows. Kitchen facilities were OK and the town was very picturesque and quiet so we had a good night's rest.
