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...).

Hong KongThings that can be improved: Toilet seat not cleaned properly- there was a spot (blood? poop?) that I scratched-wiped off upon arrival…. Spots on sofa… Some dishes not so clean even before I arrived… guess it is depends on the standard of the person who lived here before. No shower door, the toilet will flood upon showering…. Ants seen around the kitchen and in the kettle upon arrival… but not too many. Not much extra sets of things like electric plugs upon asking staff… Some crazy guy (?) outside trying the doors or closing door noisily during late night (after 11). I don’t dare to go out to see. Aircon turns off frequently - should be thermostat controlled, but still sometimes excessive… Blanket changed to double size but the sheets below were still single sized - I would rather have two single blankets with two single sheets…
It functions quite well as an apartment! Spacious both laterally and to the ceiling! Enough dishes and crockery! Helpful staff on second day

United StatesThe balcony overlooked the HVAC venting, so we did not use it. In general the unit was set up more for appearances and online photos than fundtional use or comfort. We had to move an endtable into the kitchen so that we could plug in the electric kettle. The cushioned chairs were not clean, so we did not use them and did all of our sitting at the dining table. We had to move stuff around to make it work, and had a hard time unpacking for a week's stay. We had no WiFi while we were there. That was a real bummer. There was almost nothing to cook with, until the last day when they bought pots and pans in anticipation of the truffle festival. We had to go by a knife so that we could make meals.
Location was great. The apartment was very quiet. We made breakfast in the apartment, which was convenient, but the apartment was poorly stocked for cooking. It was spacious, although, we were put in a triple, so there was a bed there we did not use. We would have preferred a loveseat as pictured online.

SwitzerlandN/A (bear in mind that receptionist needs to have a break now and then, so better try to arrange getting your key's via the code box in case you arrive around noon/early afternoon or after 20:00)
You need to send a scan/photo of your ID/Passport ahead, in case of late evening arrival as it happened for us very easy, little key box with a code Receptionists speak good English, are super attentive city parking was just outside for a reasonable price great location, just a a few steps to the old town centre (in fact, right on the edge of the old centre), post office around the corner Alba is very idyllic, and was surprisingly full of mostly Italian tourists when we visited (unlike other North Italian towns) (we recommend the Restaurant Albamare for better dining, at the square behind the main cathedral) Piemonte is great for cycle tours

Perfect position as it is in the city center, but very close to the train station and a big parking there. Nice modern apartment very clean and comfortable, really convenient for families with kids. We loved the breakfast, as it was at the coffee place close by (Italian style).everyone in the Staff was very welcoming and nice. We will go back for sure!

Spacious room. Good location and nice cafe at the corner for breakfast - Gusto Madre. They roast their own coffee bean, very high quality specialty coffee + the best croissant in this trip. Staffs are both friendly and helpful.
