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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

United KingdomThey can’t control the building itself which as both lifts were out on my arrival and were for the majority of my stay I was glad j was on floor 1, for those on floors 2-6 this could be a problem. My last stay only 1 was working so this appears to be an ongoing problem. The flat itself no problems at all
Have stayed here before and will again. The hosts are very receptive to any issues and rectify as soon as they can as long as they are with the apartment. I like the complementary tea coffee, dishwasher tabs etc. if there could be salt pepper and or oil that would be perfect.

United KingdomGuests should be allowed the opportunity to physically inspect the property prior to committing their funds after booking. Otherwise, they should be refunded total booking fee if the property doesn't meet their expectations on arrival. My host was very friendly and available to assist, but the office admin staff was rude on the phone with poor customer service. The cooking pots in the apartment are way too small for cooking with the induction cooker installed in the apartment. The lighting on the 3rd floor corridor went off for long for some days. The location of the television on the wall in flat 307 is poor. The cutlery (fork, spoon, knives) in flat 317 is below standard. Wood work skating (wall and floor) in the sitting room in flat 307 needs fixing.
The location of the property is outstanding as there is access to multiple amenities and services in the center of the city. The lift access is good.

United KingdomNot the fault of the company but the flats are in a large block and for at least half my stay (including on arrival late at night) the hallway lights were out so it was pitch black which didn’t make me feel particularly safe. Internally tv is at an odd angle to the sofa, fine if you are on your own as can sit lengthways but if a couple sitting side by side you can’t see the tv as it’s at a right angle to the sofa. As with so many of these aparthotels leaving salt/pepper in the kitchen would be helpful / a nice gesture
Property was as expected. It was super easy to extend my stay and when contacted for extra dishwasher tablets etc this was provided without issue.

United KingdomThe only downside was for people like myself doing longer stays in this apartment. We had to purchase our own cooking trays and sieve and cheese grater etc but the rest of the kitchen was equipped so this would only be a problem for longer term stays rather than one or two nights. Apart from that it was lovely to stay in.
Was perfect location right opposite the mall and shops it was great! A quiet building, had no disruptions from neighbours. Loved it.

Central position, so excellent for shops, train and restaurants. Clean and well-equipped for simple cooking and laundry.

PolandOne of the bedrooms does not have a window and doors. Beds are very narrow. Kitchen with nearly no equipment (one small pot). The appartment is owned by a company and the contact is somehow impersonal, wirh long messages sent via booking chat, even the keys are located in a kiosk nearby.
Located at the centre of Luton, 5 inutes from the main public transport hub, 2 minutes from a huge shopping centre. At the same time - the appartment is very calm and quiet.

United Kingdom. TV bit too high, should be lowered. Awkward viewing from position on sofa (especially for someone who is not that tall) . Shower very narrow and cramped, not much room to move /turnaround without bumping into the walls or knobs . No drying rack for dishes after washing up TV didn't seem to be a Smart TV (wanted to log into Netflix or bbc iplayer but couldn't figure out how)
. Clean . Modern apartment . Very good location . Most things provided e.g. Plates, glasses, towels, soap, dishwasher, washing machine, sponge and washing up liquid . Good amount of furniture to put clothes where the bedroom area was . Plug socket behind the bed was bit hard to locate at first . Some useful instructions provided for the appliances
