Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The mattress was a bit old, it bended in the middle, so it made for an uncomfortable night sleep. Fourth floor, no elevator.
Very clean, helpful host. Nice location.

This is probably an issue on booking.com: It states "your own kitchen" and "your shared bathroom", but both are shared with the other rooms obviously.
It is a simple but spacious room. The street outside is goid to hear but that comes with the convenient location and the old building. Some stuff like the door is a bit run down. It is in a private flat with tree rooms all rented out seperatly. The kitchen has no window. But all fine to crash for some time, especially for Geneva.

I thought that my room would have its own bathroom. This could be articulated clearer in the description of the property. Minimal and not very cozy decoration in the room. Fine to sleep, but not really to hang out or chill. The whole apartment feels kind of cold.
Perfect location for Geneva, next to one of the best bars and Plainpalais is a nice district with lots of museums, culture and university life. Transport pass included in price.

The flat is on the 4th floor, and there is no lift/ascensor. No recommended for people with heavy luggage.
The bed is comfortable.

No lift. So if you have large heavy suitcase, isn't easy to carry.
Property is near the bus stop. Situated in good location. Clean room but not spacious. Kitchen appliances available to use.

One of the worst experiences I’ve had staying in a rental in last years. Firstly, the room comes with only one towel per person, and it’s tattered. For some reason, there’s a 15 CHF fee to check in just one hour later, despite the fact that check-in is entirely self-service. The host was completely unresponsive—didn’t reply to messages for a full day and provided zero assistance during the stay. It feels like they’re just trying to squeeze as much money as possible from guests. On top of that, they charge a 35 CHF cleaning fee for a tiny room, which is outrageous. For the price you’re paying here, it’s much better to stay in a nearby hotel where you’ll get a lot more comfort and service. The bathroom situation is ridiculous—one shared bathroom for three rooms. The showerhead was broken, so it didn’t hold up properly, and with only one bathroom, you’re in for a long wait. But the worst part—nowhere was it mentioned that the room is on the 4th floor without an elevator. I had to haul two 20 kg suitcases, a backpack, and other luggage up four flights of stairs, making multiple trips. It was exhausting and frustrating. Overall, the final price for this room was huge, and for what you’re getting, you’re better off choosing any hotel nearby. You’ll have a much more comfortable and stress-free experience.
Location is great, room is clean.

No A/C during hot summer was a bit of a let down.
Good facilities especially kitchen for cooking, and supermarket conveniently around the corner. Nice location and felt secure, was near the Plainpalais Flea Market and not too far from Jet' deau

I was kept out of the house for over an hour because I was contesting the tax amount, which was twice what was indicated on the booking! I eventually agreed to pay out of frustration after the amount was reduced to be close enough to the amount indicated on the booking. I had already paid for my stay, and I wasn't being allowed into the apartment, even after begging to be allowed in to charge my phone, which was at 1%. Strangely, there was another client (Mr. Zhang) who also had not received his key code and was visibly frustrated. I had to get involved to help him get his code and key to his room. I was particularly peeved due to the poor customer care and absolute lack of understanding!
The facilities were good.
