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 reviewThe location is good, close to everything, about a ten-minute walk to the city center, and close to the bazaars and markets. The place was just wonderful, everything was good. Thanks to the owner of the apartment, he was very helpful and polite.
What I didn't like was the shower, it was a small, cramped place and the toilet seat was moving unsteadily. We stayed in the apartment for a week and it was cleaned only once.

Verified reviewClean and comfy bed. Excellent cafe and desert shop right opposite which was perfect as well as restaurants with competitive prices. Located by local supermarkets with non tourist prices.
The location is 10 mins from the main road and is downhill so a steepclimb. Not a problem for me but maybe for others.
Thank you for your evaluation.

Verified reviewThe rooms are simple, not luxurious, but very clean and the beds were comfortable. The location is excellent — within walking distance of the main attractions. The host showed genuine care — he asked about our arrival time, offered help with transfer, and told us we could stay a bit longer if needed. He also kindly treated us to cold water, which was very appreciated in the heat. He guided us where to park the car, which was very helpful. Overall, we felt truly welcome and had everything we needed for a pleasant and comfortable stay.
Thank you for your nice evaluation, you are always welcome.

Verified reviewWe stayed here for 3 nights with my two Erasmus friends, and we absolutely loved it. The location was perfect – close to all the main attractions, restaurants, and public transport. Staying in the center of Istanbul was an experience in itself, and this hotel made it even better. The rooms were clean, cozy, and quiet – just what we needed after full days of exploring the city. The staff was super friendly and helpful, always ready to assist us or give recommendations. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was very warm and welcoming, and we felt safe and comfortable throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to experience Istanbul fully while having a nice, peaceful base to return to. Thank you for the lovely stay – we’d love to come back one day!
Thank you so much welcome always l hope see you aegen have good trip

Verified reviewWe had a great stay! The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly—they offered us several activities to choose from and even helped us arrange transportation to the airport. Our arrival time was flexible, which made things much easier, and they kindly let us leave our backpacks during the day after checkout. Overall, a very welcoming experience. Highly recommended!

Verified reviewThe reception staff was very helpful at any time and for everything, the location was good. The only issue we had was that the windows and doors were not soundproof so you could hear everything from outside. Great value for money though!
Thank you for your comment. Yes, your room is a bit noisy because it is both on the entrance and on the street. This is only a problem in the room you are staying in because it is both on the entrance floor and on the street. I hope we see each other again. This time we will offer you a quieter room that is not on the street. Have a nice day. Stay safe.
