Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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...).

LuxembourgThe check-in is a "virtual experience". The lady on the phone asked me to send them a photo of my passport and a selfie before they would give me access details. It seemed a bit over the top. It took a few days for the safety deposit to be debited back into my account.
A comfortable place to stay in Austin. Our unit was very close to the road though.

United States of America$30 A DAY PARKING FEE - noted hidden in the fine print. They failed to identify themselves in their initial check-in text, so I ignored it as do with random spam text messages. So we got off on the wrong foot, then they wanted a lot of personal info texted to them to check in. I mean they already had my money. The place was clean but not spotless, we asked them to come back and vacuum again which they did.
This is kind of an air bnb - no desk, no staff on site. A converted 2/1.5 apartment, well stocked with household items for a comfortable stay. Quiet and private and a super value considering the downtown Austin location. All in all a nice stay and we'd use them again. Full size washer & dryer - nice (with soap pods provided)

AustriaParking was not included in the price (30$ per night). Our apartment wasn't as new and clean as suggested on the photos, but okay. Floor was not cleaned properly, and the upstairs toilet needed fixing.
Well located in walking distance to SoCo and downtown, yet quiet. Washing machine and dryer were useful.

United States of AmericaThe building was on a busy street that was hard to drive into and out of. The property had very uncomfortable beds and the smoke detectors were making noise all night.
Nicely decorated and great location. The building complex was clean and safe. It was quiet and easy to find.

United Kingdom- Strong stench of bleach on entry. Hung around the property for about 12 hours - Lots of the furnishings and finishings are quite tired. Needs some TLC. - Not suitable for groups of friends, given the shared en-suite bathroom between two bedrooms. - Poor quality bedding. Pillows were solid. Ultra budget.
- Large property, outdoor space - Spacious lounge area

United States of AmericaThe floors were very dirty, our feet were brown before bed after walking around the house. The air conditioner wasn’t working properly, and the house got very hot. Would be better if there was some kind of smart tv instead of us having to play stuff through google chrome. The shower was a little blocked up and water built up very easily. Toilet seat in the bathroom just pops off very easily and we have to keep clicking it back in.
Location, amenities were good. Nice apartment, very handy to wash our clothes and have things to cook. Nice courtyard area and very close to everything.

United States of AmericaIt’s a decent condo, but a little sparse. Feels like a quick flip. Corporate owners are off site and contract local service, which is an issue when you have plumbing problems like we did. Main bath sink stopper got stuck and half bath sink leaked badly. The “solution” was simply to remove the stopper altogether instead of fixing it and put “towels” (three paper towels!) down under the leaking sink and tell us we could still use it.
Super close to downtown, walking distance to Lady Bird Lake! Great food options nearby, including an awesome food truck park.

United KingdomA little tatty in parts; like ripped bed linen and perhaps not the newest towels. There were two of us staying for ten days and we were only given 2 x toilet rolls. No TV / streaming / cable to watch, only via your phone hook up.
Clean, spacious, bright house with good wifi, and other facilities, in a good location for downtown. credit to cleaning team - it was immaculate.

United States of AmericaWe were not able to adjust the thermostat. Even after messaging for help, nothing worked. Only TV was in the living room, none in the bedrooms. The light in the dining area did not turn off, and with one person sleeping downstairs, we had to unscrew the light bulbs each night.
Great location! Quite area but you can walk to restaurants and bars was easy. Very roomy. Lots of space. Very comfortable. Lots of amenities. The bedding was nice and warm on the cold nights. Very homey! We had a wonderful time!

United States of AmericaOur unit, B, is very close to the street and the traffic noise was loud and intrusive. The apartment smelled when we walked in, worse on the ground floor. The bedrooms upstairs aren't too bad. The cold water tap in the bathroom upstairs leaks. One of the dining room chairs is broken. It seems to need some careful attention from maintenance, especially the bathroom.
