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.).

NetherlandsIt is not exactly a 2 bedroom apartment. There is a bedroom with a double/queen bed while 2 single beds are in the living/dining room (where the main door is). No tea/coffee in the apartment, would be nice to have some.
Centrally located, 5 min walk from the fort and the Souq. Owner was quick to respond to messages. House was spacious and clean.

United Arab EmiratesIt’s not really 2 bedroom - 2 beds are in the lounge so think this should be renamed. Cash only - this was very difficult to see in T&Cs and quite unusual for bookings so would be good if more prominent.
Excellent location, everything needed was provided.

I have stayed at the Nizwa Park House Apartment with my family, and we had an absolutely delightful experience. The apartment is incredibly well-maintained, offering spacious and clean rooms that were perfect for our stay. The location couldn't be better—just a short walk from Nizwa Fort and the Souq, which made exploring the city very convenient. The owner was exceptionally kind and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed to feel at home. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the overall ambiance of the apartment contributed to a very pleasant and comfortable stay. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Nizwa

Francethere is no free parking close to the building so you will have to park the car a little bit further (5/10 min walk) which is not a problem but I think it is important to know it.

SingaporeThe windows have an amazing view, unfortunately you can't open them and they aren't cleaned from outside, so there is a dust and sand layer on them and you can't really appreciate the view. It looks like a former office transformed into apartment, it works but don't expect an actual home feeling. Would still recommend the place!
Location is ideal, walking distance to main attractions. There is a kitchen, not super equipped with cutlery but enough to cook basic stuff, which is nice.
