Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

AustraliaOur only down point was the noise from the road which was really loud. But it was truly a wonderful place to stay!
Absolutely fantastic facilities, staff and location. Next time we stay we will request a room that backs onto the market and not the main road. Otherwise this place is absolutely PERFECT AAA+++

United Arab EmiratesI reserved a room with breakfast included, but upon arrival, I was informed that the café was undergoing renovations. However, Mr. Rey promptly informed me that Booking.com would be refunding me for this inconvenience. Despite my initial concerns about potential construction noise, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was minimal, and it didn't detract from our wonderful stay. Overall, I have no complaints and thoroughly enjoyed our experience.
The property's location was outstanding! It offered convenient access to the metro and the vibrant Bugis area, with a plethora of restaurants nearby. Mr. Rey's hospitality was exceptional; he effortlessly catered to all our requests, ensuring we felt thoroughly cared for. The room itself was impeccably maintained, exuding a cozy "home away from home" ambiance. Every essential was thoughtfully provided, from a coffee machine to a washing machine for laundry, leaving us wanting for nothing. Without a doubt, I look forward to returning to this gem in Singapore, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a truly comfortable stay.

AustraliaNot that it’s the hotels fault but the major construction going on close by was very noisy but luckily I had packed ear plugs and after two days they moved further along. Like I said though, not the fault of the hotel but a warning may have been helpful.
It was very clean, the staff were brilliant. Excellent location with the trains and buses across the road, which are so easy to navigate.Close to local markets and major shopping centres. I would easily stay again.

United KingdomNothing really. All good - perhaps some balcony furniture?
This is a lovely old heritage building next to Bugis Street and Bugis MRT. The apartment I had was a one bedroom with a balcony, living room, kitchenette and bathroom. All very pleasant, well equipped and spotlessly clean, but what makes this place really special are the people who work in it. I met Rey, who is the Manager at the reception, and Warren, as well as a young woman who worked on reception also. So helpful and friendly. It seemed nothing was too much trouble. This made it feel like home and I can't wait to go back again. As mentioned in other reviews there is some traffic noise if you have an apartment facing the main road so bring some ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. You won't be disappointed. Thank you especially to Rey who is such a nice chap. If I needed anything the team just sorted it. Thank you. You are all great.

AustraliaIf I had to pick one thing the room was a little smaller than expected, but I hardly spent anytime in the room so wasn't a problem at all
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly they couldn't do enough for us especially Ray the ever present Manager. The young lady ( forgot her name) helped and assisted us with the taxi, waited with us and helped with the bags, so greatful.1 The room had airconditioning, microwave, Cooktop, shower and 2 bidets, washing machine/dryer, coffee machine and a water purifier/heater. The hotel was positioned minutes to food outlets, hawker centre, markets, buses, and MRT. I walked to Little India, Arab Street, Haji Lane, Esplanade, Spectra Light Show, Helix Bridge, Merlion and Flowers by the Bay. 24hr coffee at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf for us early risers 5minutes walk, Mac Donald's, Jollibee and Asian restaurants downstairs. Shopping Malls also minutes away.

Breakfast was absolutely fantastic, service staff were also amazing. The gentleman at the front counter was the best service staff I've ever had, he was both attentive, polite, and paid attention to all our needs. Even though it was over Chinese New Year the staff were incredible and made us feel at home.

SloveniaIt is very noisy outside and apart from wearing ear plugs you cannot do much against it as the building has some old openings above windows which I guess cannot be touched due to protection of historical buildings. Our flat had 2 chairs for 4 people so we had to compromise a bit, but we did not mind as we have spent so much time outside. As said, ear plugs are highly recommended.
Excellent location, super close to MRT and bus stations as well as short walk away from Esplanade or downtown. Plenty of shopping and restaurant options. It was cleaned every day and we got fresh towels replaced. Water purifying machine was excellent as well as a Nespresso coffee maker. Beds were comfortable, nothing to complain!

New ZealandThe main bed size in our room was very small for 2 people, including a 6ft adult. Luckily we were apparently upgraded due to some renovation work happening in the hotel. I could sleep in the added single room, so we could both sleep more comfortably for the week. A bit weird though since it was a 25th Anniversary trip!!
Great location close to MRT and shops. Lots of good dining options nearby. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and having breakfast included was nice!

IndiaReally, there was nothing to not like! Everything was great. They call it a 'boutique' serviced apartment, and indeed that's what it is.
The manager, Ray, was very helpful and attentive, and solved any problem which we had. The cleaning staff (everyday housekeeping!) were also extremely nice. Very nice verandah to watch the busy street below. Extremely good facilities in the kitchen - everything you could possibly need. The breakfast, served 8-11 am, was excellent. Though the options were limited (not a full buffet-style breakfast), the fare - extremely well appointed and presented - was served at the table by very courteous servers within a few minutes.
