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 Kingdomspacious with quality furnishings and kitchen appliances including top of the range cooker, dishwasher, nespresso machine. Apartment was on two floors with 2 bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs. Great views. 2 car parking spaces were an added bonus as parking in Bournemouth can be difficult. The communication with Aneta was excellent and she responded very quickly to all queries.

United KingdomFinding the key safe was abit tricky as there are loads of key safes in the same area. But it didn't take away from our stay
The property was clean and very homie. Close to loads of amenities in Bournemouth. The beach, funfair and aquarium were no more than a 10min drive. Aneta was very kind, responded fast to questions and was a great host.

United KingdomJust a little hard to access property from car park, but thanks to the host we did get detailed instructions which really helped.
This apartment was a hidden little gem with lovely views and was perfect for our weekend away. It was clean and comfortable and the location was good to reach the local restaurants and beach. The host was very good at informing us of how to access the property and ensured our stay went well. Would highly recommend this place as it has everything you need and in a convenient location. Will definitely go back again.

United KingdomImpeccable attentiveness from Aneta, to the extent of complimentary, luxury hot chocolate being ordered in as a welcome treat (my friend and I aren't big alcohol drinkers). Accompanying this were a range of additional complimentary beverages, Nespresso pods and chocolate biscuits. The apartment itself was incredibly warm & cosy despite the autumnal weather outside and there was a huge television to enjoy the World Cup or a plethora of streaming services available. Free-to-use toiletries matched the high-end finishing throughout the bathrooms and Neom diffusers were a quality touch. Bedrooms were spacious and homely with plenty of scope to hang our clothes, though only one bedroom had a wardrobe. I travelled in a party of two and gated, free parking was both easy to find and really convenient, with various attractions in Bournemouth only minutes away. I'd highly recommend the apartment and would use again on any repeat visits to the area.

United KingdomI can't quite figure out what we didn't like as Bournemouth has everything you would want, a crazy big beach, gigantic park, plenty of places to eat and drink, shopping centres. The main town felt a bit run down.
Facilities were excellent in the property, all very modern with 3 toilets, 2 showers, sky, big tv, modern kitchen with induction hob, fast heat oven, microware Lots of complimentary items left for us. Free parking with 2 spaces available.

I took a road trip with my daughters and stayed at 3 different locations, this was our last location. I have to say; we saved the best for last! The apartment was immaculately clean and beautifully put together. The location is perfect to get to the beach by foot and has plenty of places to eat. Aneta (the host) was very accommodating and ensured we had a great stay. She happily responded to all my questions and gave thorough instructions for finding the apartment and carpark. She also took the time to send links of places to visit and of interest. She is the perfect host that went above and beyond. I will definitely stay here again in the future.
