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 KingdomSofa wasn’t particularly comfortable to sit on or sleep on. The table was small for five people to eat around. The WiFi dropped out regularly when we were trying to watch a film.
Great location with lovely view of the sea from the balcony and main bedroom. Apartment was very clean and well appointed. Bathrooms were an excellent size as was the living area and main bedroom. Balconies were lovely, although we didn’t use the bedroom balcony. The apartment has everything we wanted in terms of appliances and utensils, coffee pot, etc. The curtains kept the light out fairly well

Whats not to like. The property was in a great location right near the conference centre. 5 minutes to the beach. 5 minutes to the town centre. spotlessly clean. Fully equipped with everything you need. Waking up to a sea view every morning. Secure property.

United KingdomThese are very minor, on the whole it is a fabulous apartment. I just like to be thorough and pass on a few tips! The bed in the master bedroom is really small, and I am not sure why as there is plenty of space for a bigger bed. The kitchen bin is tiny and there was only one bin bag, so definitely need to take extra bags next time. The blinds throughout are a little tired, and it's worth noting that there is one ceiling height window in the lounge with no blind at all. If anyone is planning to use the sofa bed for extra sleeping space, it would be very bright! The kitchen table is very small. We just about managed for the 4 of us, but you couldn't accommodate visitors or additional guests.
Absolutely brilliant stay! We will definitely return. The apartment is really homely, a nice size and lovely view. Great to have two bathrooms and an allocated parking space. We had to do some work and the WiFi was really good. Kitchen is well equipped and we could easily cook a few meals with everything we needed. Appreciated the washing machine and dishwasher (along with a few detergent tablets for each). The location is fabulous, and is just a few minutes walk away from the beach and pier, as well as Bournemouth gardens and town centre. Brilliant place for families - just be aware it's at the top of a steep hill, so it might be quite a slog with a buggy / wheelchair or anyone with mobility issues. Although very central, it was lovely and quiet, we had great peaceful nights! We were due to pick up the keys from an office, but in the end collected from a lock box outside because it was a bank holiday. I think this is much better and all worked out smoothly.

United KingdomNot that didn’t like, but the back of the sofas mechanism wasn’t working properly especially one side so very backward leaning. Couple of other weeny things - dining table could be a little bigger and instructions on how to use heating system and dishwasher could be clearer/provided. Oh, also key collection a little dodgy given the office location. A box at apartment location would be easier? Apart from that it was excellent and didn’t spoil the break in any way.
Location, size, cleanliness and modern with all facilities needed

United KingdomNothing, we enjoyed our stay there.
Excellent location for Bournemouth town centre, central beaches, the pier and the excellent local restaurants. Beautiful views of the sea. The kitchen was very well equipped and the bedrooms, en suite shower and bathroom are all very comfortable. The apartments appear to be very well sound-proofed (we certainly couldn't hear any noise from any adjacent apartments). Very nice living room and a generous range of television services (Freeview Plus, Netfix etc) plus a DVD player.
