Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

It’s a little tired and could do with a bit of tidying up and redecoration.
Great location in the Northern Quarter and close to the city centre and tram links. Good amount of space in the property with the bonus of an outdoor terrace.

There wasn’t anything that we didn’t like. An extra bonus was that if there were any queries that the hosts were contactable and really helpful with arrival and any queries that we had.
The property was clean, tidy and had everything needed such as towls, tea, coffee and some dishwasher tablets. It has an excellent sized living areas. With an Alexa speaker which was a great bonus to be able to play music. The property is a fabulous location, central to all the activities we had planned in Manchester over our stay.

:( kitchen whilst large and modern wasnt clean to a level that we felt needed - which we are sure can be rectified by a proper clean - also we couldn’t wipe tops up or bag up rubbish as no items available to do so - rectified we are sure by restock of these items. Towels - we felt were a bit threadbare for quality of apartment- again easily rectified by re stock. Stairs - in general and can’t be rectified - we didnt realise there were so many stairs ! :) we did ok but a point to consider if staying with small children or elderly folk. However despite this we wouid absolutely stay again!!
Location location location !! Convenience store 1 min away - station 10 min walk or 2 min £6 taxi. It’s a super spot and a homely house - balcony is priceless with access to fresh air and more space to relax. Seating and city view with Bus graffiti - quiet even though central. Living room is relaxing comfy w stylish sofas and big tv - cosy beds 2 showers 3 toilets- room for everyone. Perfect for our group. Key code entrance means no keys to lose!

There were a few issues regards facilities (hobs not working and sofa broke once we arrived) although not the owners fault- Mark was very quick to help solve them for us.
The place was very central to northern quarter, less than 5 minutes walk from Afflecks, which we loved and lots of food places around about. The apartment was HUGE, we were all very impressed. Well kept, very modern, absolutely brilliant. Interaction with the owner was very quick and helpful.

3rd bedroom is up a steep ladder and you need to be under 5ft to attempt to stand up with the matress basically on the floor This is not clear in description and not great for a 6ft person Arrived just before 3pm and was still being cleaned, cleaner advised we needed to leave till 4pm Couple of interior door handles had fell off
Great location Wifi was good Lounge is decent size Communication was good throughout
