How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We arrived later at night and had trouble finding the right door. We managed to find it eventually though and when we saw the place the next day during daytime it was very clearly marked on a table near the parking lot so I guess it was more our fault than the property’s. :D
Everything was clean and the beds were very comfy.

The stairs up to the apartment are quite steep so it is not suitable for very small kids. We are tall (185+ cm) and the toilet was small for us, we had to negotiate the space under the roof.
The apartment house is located close to Spital/Stuhleck; it's very peaceful there, the view was very calming. The sofa is fantastic and so are the beds, really comfortable. Coffee and tea (and sweets) were provided which was a nice touch. The apartment is very spacious and it was nice to hang out there and chill after skiing, our 6yo didnt get bored there :) Parking right in front of the house. I really enjoyed staying there.

Too small apartment for 5 ppl.
Everything was good. We used to use BBQ place with our own stuff. We had families apartment, rented for 5 people. I think it was ok for 1 night but longer stay - recommend not more than 4 ppl. Good place to have overnight between skiing in stuhleck (5 mins by car). Didn't used infrared sauna for 10 euro but it was offered.

There was no shampoo or shower gel available! There was a hand wash soap in the bathroom, so we had to use it instead of shower gel. At the end I had to go to the shop by bus which cost me 6 euro for the travel to get a shampoo which I used only once to leave it at the property also. I was not aware there was a shop 100m from apartment as host said later. Next thing is bed. First of all pillows are huge and flat. Not sure how the sleep on those, so I had to fold my one in half and sleep this way. There was one double bed in the apartment, but it had 2 single duvets anyway. When there is a double bed you automatically expect to have a double duvet too. That's the whole point of a double bed. Also it's mattress was very old, I could feel it so I wouldn't use it. Beside was single bed with good mattress, so was pretty comfortable for the sleep. My friend had an issue with charging her phone as in some outlets it wasn't working as well as she had problem with Wi-Fi or to say the absence of the signal from time to time and the speed of it.
We came bit early than the check in time, but were accommodated with early check in request. Our room was on the top floor with beautiful views, the place is spacious enough. The host was very nice and dropped my friend to another town as we were going to the festival near and the busses weren't available.

The master bedroom only had access to the corridor through the secondary bedroom. The garbage bins were not empty when we arrived... we also had concerns if the bed sheets have been changed. The owner dismissed our concerns, but since the garbage was not taken out... you never know.
big kitchen with plenty of space to hang out not only during meals. spacious bathroom. nice balcony, though due to weather we did not use it much.

Thermostat in living room/kitchen only. Passing trains can be disturbing for some. There are steep stairs leading up to the apartment, which can be problematic for the elderly.
Three minutes' drive to the ski lift. Fully equipped apartment including dishwasher, microwave, kettle etc. Spacious kitchen and bathroom. Terrace. very high quality pillows and duvets.
