We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

South AfricaParking was a struggle, as we struggled to get parking close to the apartment. On the second day, the security informed us that the flat had underground parking which made things much easier. The host should mention this in the description or check-in details.
The property was close to all the locations we had to go to. Rooms were clean and large. Excellent location! We were also happy to find out they had a supermarket and a sports bar in the complex. What else do you need on a business trip!

United Arab EmiratesThere's really nothing to watch in the TV. Might be good if there's Netflix. The toilet seat is broken, it would be best to do a quick maintenance before offering it again for rental The sofa bed was not prepared when we arrived and we had to set it up ourselves, looking for beddings, etc
The apartment was fully furnished. Everything you need is there - towels, toiletries. Kitchen is well equipped. There is a small grocery (Carrefour) in walking distance. This is also ideal to those who will be going to the Yas parks as it's just a few mins drive away

United KingdomThe room was definitely on the cold side even with the air on off! There were no hangers & a cloth for cleaning would have been useful. Purely constructive criticism, the room was perfect for our needs as we were 3 adults. it would not have been comfortable to sleep 2 on the sofa bed.
Clean & spacious, it was great for 3 guests. Location was perfect for Yas Marina, Yas Beach and other entertainment. The on site supermarket was excellent and pharmacy was very useful. The swimming pools & gym were very accessible & well maintained.

RussiaHowever, communication with the host could be improved. We arrived at 3:20 PM (check-in was at 3:00 PM), but the apartment wasn’t ready. The cleaning had just started as the previous guests had only left recently. We were not informed in advance that the apartment wouldn’t be ready on time, and the host seemed surprised when we mentioned it. It took about 30 minutes for the host to check on the situation, and his response was that the situation was "already handled" since the cleaning was underway. Anyway, we were able to check in at 4:30 PM, about 1.5 hours later than the scheduled check-in time. In return, we requested a late check-out, which was granted until 1:00 PM on our departure day. Additionally, we asked the cleaning staff for a couch sheet, but she couldn’t find one. She promised to bring it in an hour, but it never arrived. We asked the host again, and he suggested we check the wardrobe (which we had already done upon arrival). We decided not to pursue this further, as we wanted to enjoy our short stay and focus on the attractions rather than dealing with household issues.
The apartment itself was great. It’s in an excellent location for Yas Island activities like Sea World and Yas Mall. The apartment was spacious, with one bedroom, a living room, and a kitchen area. The balcony was also large, with seating furniture. The kitchen was well-equipped with many items you might need for cooking. The linens and towels were good quality, and the bed and couch were comfortable for sleeping. There’s a Carrefour in the community, which is convenient for grocery shopping. There is also a swimming pool for residents nearby, with temperature control.
