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 reviewBreakfast was pretty cheap.
Everyday we had to ask for toilet paper and we did not get any clean towels throughout the week. When we asked them they said that we can get that only on specific days (Thursday and Mondays) but since we asked on Friday it was already too late for us. They did not mention this at the check-in.
Good afternoon, We are sorry to hear about your unpleasant experience, we obviously failed to make things clear regarding the cleaning schedule. Towels changes are made for 7days+ stays, under seven days no one comes by your room unless asked for specific requests. We provide toilet paper and shampoo renewal at the front desk. We hope to see you again and get a chance to offer a better experience. Regards, Thibaut, reception team

Verified reviewThey lied. They gave false information: -There was no available parking, and I chose this place because I needed to park my car in a safe place. -They sent me an email saying that they were going to lock 200 euro in my account as a fee for the room. That condition didn't exist at the moment when I booked the room. And that email was not nice. Also I have to say the room is really worn out, and with broken materials ( dirty also). Very expensive for one person. And almost doble as the prices they had in place. Bad experience.
Good afternoon, I'm not sure I understand what you seem to imply by "they gave false information" : Parking spots are available nearby and the hotel itself has an underground parking lot (subject to availability as anywhere else, depending on how many people ask for it) The e-mail you mentioned is an automatic email, written by myself, that every client who confirms a booking receives. It is a REMINDER that we ask for a deposit upon arrival, the condition appears BEFORE you confirm the booking. I really would like to know what in that email "isn't nice", I'm willing to rephrase it and if it appears aggressive, that is really not what we are looking for. Regarding the state of the room you were given, I truly apologize. We encourage our clients to let us know on arrival if something's wrong with the room and can switch depending on what's happening. Also about the price : as your comment is anonymous I cannot check the booking and the price you paid, though I'm surprised you paid double the normal amount and I'd be grateful if you could contact us on info.grenoble@appartea.com to tell us more about that matter. All in all I am sorry to hear about your unpleasant experience in our establishment, some of your points are valid and we do apologize for those, other matters seem a bit unfair. Do not hesitate to reach us for further informations on your stay. Regards, Thibaut, reception team

Verified reviewAll the cars in the parking behind the hotel were broken by someone to steal inside. I have the feeling that that was not the first time but no one warned us. The staff did not help in any way. Plus, the room was strongly smelling of sigarets.

Verified reviewFor me, the main attraction of Appartea Alpexpo was the 24-hours' check-in, as I was arriving in Grenoble at 2am. On arrival, I found the staff friendly and the apartment itself was clean. There is a lift to access upper floors (my apartment was on the 7th) and an option of buffet breakfast (at a reasonable additional cost). It is served by public transport for those arriving at a more reasonable time, with a tram stop nearby.
The location isn't very central and I had an hours' walk from the bus station; the small kitchenette is not fully equipped. Although 24 hours' check-in is available, I had to rouse someone to gain access to the building. There didn't seem to be much in the way of amenities within the immediate vicinity, although I have to admit not checking thoroughly at 3am!
