Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. 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...).

United Arab EmiratesWhen I entered the property it was not clean. The previous guests trash was left over the bed was messed. Most importantly the toilet commode was not draining we kept calling and requesting for help but there was no response we managed one night using the reception toilet .I had kid with me and this was a nightmare experience. I kept calling and requesting for help and the Maintenance team repaired it next day at 12pm. So instead of me spending quality time with my family I ended up having a stressful situation. Moreover the reception said they can not help me and if I have to fix the issue I need to pay out of my pocket. 'chris' the contact I received for the property did not answer my call or messages and said he was traveling when I asked is there any one else whom I can talk to he said no one available. There was no contact number for booking.com customer care. This was very frustrating. I am not sure if I will ever use this platform again or recommend it to anyone else.

RomaniaUpon check-in, we were disappointed to find that the room had not been cleaned after the previous guests. Additionally, the blankets provided were without sheets, which is unacceptable. There was also an unpleasant smell in the room. Overall, the cleanliness and preparation of the room did not meet our expectations.
Location near Yas Marina Circuit. Supermarkets around building.

United Arab EmiratesNot what we expected. 1. Check-in is at 3:00pm. We arrived at 3:20pm but the apartment was locked. The cleaners arrived after 15 minutes and told us they will clean the apartment first. They don’t have the key also so they waited outside along with us. (Attached photo where the cleaner, my son, and sister sitting on the floor while trying to work) 2. We were able to enter the apartment at 3:50pm. The owner gave the key to one of the cleaners. The owner didn’t even have the decency to come up and talk to us and apologize for the delay. 3. Obviously, the apartment was so dirty because it was not cleaned prior to our arrival (see attached photos) 4. The parking space provided was occupied by another car. The security gave us a temporary parking space and told us they will call once the allotted parking is available. Sadly, they didn’t and we received a text from the police that if we don’t remove our car it will be towed. We went to them again and they just said sorry and gave us another parking space because another car has parked on the allotted car of the apartment. Hopefully, we will not receive a fine because of the property’s negligence.
It is close to the event we attended.

Indiaeverything was perfect.
The apartment was modern, spacious, and tastefully furnished, providing a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. What truly set it apart, though, was the stunning view from the balcony. The beautiful Yas Marina and surrounding greenery and peaceful ambiance was ideal for relaxing. The apartment itself was equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. It’s a short distance from some of Yas Island’s best attractions, including Yas Mall, Ferrari World, and Yas Waterworld.

OmanThe property was not very clean when we arrived, the card access for the pool and gym was not provided as per the listing only the main key for the apartment was given. We have faced an issue with bathroom the minute we checked in, we tried to get in contact with the agency and there was no response from their side. We had to use the communal restroom in the building until the problem was solved by the building maintenance itself the next day and not the agency itself because they never responded back. According to the maintenance team it wasn’t the first time that this happens with the different properties associated with this agency. The team is unprofessional and is not responsive in case of such emergencies.
