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.).

IrelandThe location is fabulous, in town, lovely street with art galleries, and plenty options for food drink. Also, close to the harbour and the beach. I'd love to have stayed a few extra days to explore more. Also, the apartment is exceptionally spacious, and has everything you could possibly need.

United KingdomThere is one bathroom in the apartment so we had to queue for showers which was the only downside!
The apartment is huge! And the location is perfect, in the creative quarter and a stone's throw from the beach. It was like home from home, with all the little touches like coffee pods, milk in the fridge, a freezer full of ice and toiletries in the bathroom and even body boards for the beach. Excellent value for money and would definitely recommend.

Comfy house in the heart of the lovely creative quarter. The hosts were amazing, communication was the best I’ve ever had. The house is easy to find, clean, spacious and everything you need is provided. The sun terrace was a real bonus and the kids loved hanging out up there. Really good restaurants on the doorstep. You can walk easily to the beaches and Harbour Arm a good place to hang out for food and drinks.

United KingdomThe street outside was quite busy on Friday night but to be expected as it is a lovely buzzy area.
Location was perfect..market garden just up the hill was wonderful for breakfast and lots of choice..Generally though restaurants available to suit everyone The hosts were in contact via email on our arrival day to assure us that if there were any issues(.which they’re weren’t!), they could be contacted and would resolve things. Would highly recommend and we will certainly return in the future.

United KingdomNothing really
Parking is easy and very near the accommodation, less than a minuet walk from the car park to the front door. I think people with reduced mobility might find this flat tricky. You can't park outside the property and there is a small walk up a gradual hill to the front door. In the property there are quite a few steps, with corner staircases which could make climbing difficult. However, the stairs are well lit and there are plenty of grab rails to help support you up and down . Also, the property has child gates fitted to prevent children or dogs falling down the stairs. The property was spacious and had everything you'd need for a stay. WiFi was great and each room had a TV in (if that is your thing). There were plenty of interesting places and shops around the property. The street is lively and busy most of the day and into the evening and night, with the associated noise. But sat out the back on the enclosed patio or upstairs in the sun lounge / roof terrace the hum of the street isn't noticeable. There is also a fantastic view from this room. All in all we had a great stay, if the weather had been better we'd have explored the area more. As it was Folkestone had enough to offer for a few days to keep us entertained. And yes I'd go back!
