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...).

IrelandThe only thing I can say about the apartment is that it was really warm, and it took a long time to get to my desired temperature. I mean. The heat didn't escape, and it was a good building :D
The apartment was clean and warm when we got there; it made us feel like we were at home. Almost around the corner is located a Tesco, which is super convenient. The Old Town is just a 20-minute walk away, and it gives you the opportunity to see more small businesses around the tourist area.

New ZealandNothing - it was awesome
This was the final stop on an eight week trip around Europe with my daughter. After sharing tiny hotel rooms, we were super surprised when Staycity upgraded us from a studio apartment to a 2 bedroom apartment! Such luxury to have so much space! Comfy beds, great kitchen with all the mod cons, big lounge & tv, Tescos round the corner, close to Haymarket station - it was perfect.

United KingdomThe pillows weren’t great but otherwise no complaints.
The apartments are in a good location, 10 minute walk from Haymarket station and a brisk 15 minute walk into the centre of Edinburgh. The communal areas are a little tired but the apartments are comfortable and well maintained. Really friendly and helpful staff and reception is manned 24 hours.

GermanyThe bathroom had a real strange issue with the tiling, which the staff immediately reported, but it meant we had a door that really had to be rammed home to open or shut, and you had to be careful of water on the floor as it was missing all the grouting for some reason.
The area was within walking distance to many parts of the city, and we had the possibility to make use of the kitchen. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Was quite peaceful generally. Beds were super comfy.

TurkeyThe curtains are difficult to open and close and a footstool would have been good when watching TV from the heavy chair that turns into a bed. Bad persistant smell in the fridge.
At first it seemed a bit soulless and quite a walk from Haymarket Station with a case, but it was due to diversions. The location was super and I felt really safe as a sole female. Maintenence guy from Poland was super helpful and efficient turning my heating down.Housekeeper also super sweet and helpful a blonde lady from Bulgaria. On arrival reception guy was very helpful too and marked on a map where to go and eat, and best music venues ect. Brilliant stay worth the money to have reception staff on call.

Walking distance to the Haymarket Station for easy transfer to the airport. The room was spacious with a separate living room and kitchen. Tons of space for 3 friends traveling together.

CanadaWhen you took a shower, much of the bathroom flooded and you had to clean up the water or walk in puddles every time you wanted to use the toilet.
Did not have breakfast. Suite was clean, comfortable, quiet. Bed was comfortable. Except the shower flooding the bathroom (see below) it was excellent!

CanadaFilthy old synthetic pad under the lvg room rug Not needed and gross. Throw it away! Bathroom door not properly hung. Rubs on floor and sticks A H&S issue. Fix! Chrome-cast streaming to TV in lvg room is crap Barely works. Most TVs now have Apple AirPlay built in, which works flawlessly. Activate AirPlay option on the TVs ! Some basic items missing in the kitchen — serving bowl, fruit tray, medium cup, dish brush. I bought them and "gifted" them to the unit. Outside hallway stairwell carpeting badly needs cleaning or replacement. Worse, the stairwell window is sealed shut. Chemical deodorants sprayed to mask mouldy odour. Instead of spraying noxious crap, unlock the window! Allow fresh air into stairwell !
Self contained unit with kitchenette, including dishwasher and clothes washer. Clean, fairly bright, quiet area, easy walk to centre-town, West End, GrassMarket, Old Town and most other cultural destinations.
