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.).

The room was well laid out and very clean. Everything you might need for a stay was there. Although the neighbourhood looks a bit industrial, close the curtains and it is great.

ThailandIt’s on the street and sunlight in summer makes us awake till late night and very early in the morning. I need to close the curtain for privacy and protect light while I need cold weather and air for freshness coming in as no air conditioner in the room.
Good facilities and clean, and a milk in the refrigerator is very thoughtful and helpful when all stores are closed at evening.

The apartment was cute and clean. Walking distance to restaurants and a brewery by the water. The shower was huge and very relaxing. They had a travel crib available for our young son.

United StatesThis did not bother us bcs we stayed only one night. The town is small and all is sort of mixed. Next to and across these lovely apartments are industrial type businesses.
Modern, clean, in center of this small town. We walked to restaurants and waterfront. If we were staying longer the fully equipped kitchen would be useful for taking a break from eating out. Owner/manager was helpful. He messaged us ahead of our arrival with instructions and helpful information.

United KingdomNothing! was great
What a lovely little apartment in Höfn. This place was spacious, came with an array of cooking utensils, was clean and homely with candles. The apartment was close to the ocean and really close to a great little swimming pool which you could walk to. I would definitely stay here again and wish we booked it for longer! Checking in: Super easy process. Given a code to get the key that opened the apartment. This code was given well in advance.

United StatesIt would be nice to have sheers on the windows so you can have natural light with some privacy for the ground (1st) floor rooms.
This is a basic apartment. It was what we expected - clean, with good space and comfortable bed. Pictures on booking.com are accurate. The hostess left us a bag of coffee for the french press, but we didn't find it till too late :) Hofn is a working port town and the neighborhood doesn't look like much, but the whole town is like that.

United StatesThe sign above our room caused confusion about our room being the office. Pretty minor inconvenience.
Located nicely for many attractions and there were a number of food choices that were excellent. Had a minor issue with door (because I didn’t understand the handle lift to lock) and they graciously showed me what to do. There was fridge and stove, though we did not use.
