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.).

Verified reviewGreat location, a bonus having car parking space. Bruno gave us very helpful information above for visiting Gibraltar Rock. All his advice was spot on. The views from the balcony were spectacular, great sunset 🌅
As mentioned in other reviews, 3rd floor, but we’re aware so not a problem. Not as clean as I would have liked!

Verified reviewA very comfortable stay in a lovely apartment which had everything we needed. The apartment is in a great location for exploring Gibraltar -we enjoyed the view from the sunny balcony. Our host Gino was very helpful and communicative 😊
Nothing - everything was perfect!

Verified reviewThe apartment was well equipped, clean , and he left a few treats in the fridge for my arrival, he gave me all the info for the bus routes and possible things I might want to see. He messaged to see if got there and settled in ok, and again when I left of time to leave and where to leave the key, very helpful. The air conditioning in the front room and bedroom was fantastic.
I felt the major issue for me personally was all the stairs to the apartment with no lift , as gibraltar is extremely hilly anyway, the stairs were difficult and maybe should be highlighted more when booking for people with mobility issues, in the lounge the tv woukd only offer comedy central channel which was a shame.

Verified reviewVery comfortable appartment on 4th floor with good view. Kitchen well equipped in the main. Private car-parking place very useful (even if a bit of a challenge to back into!).
It would be useful if the notification of key arrangements etc could be sent a little earlier; we received the mail when we were already at the airport and so did not have chance to print the detailed info - but the host was there to meet us, so all well. Also, it would be helpful to advise that access is by 4 floors of stairs, which would be a problem for someone with a disability, but the host helped with baggage. A coffee filter cone or other device would be a good addition.

Verified reviewexceptional service, communication excellent from owner. service outstanding. Clean, well equipped apartment. Bed comfortable, shower very good, though can run cold after you are in it for a while. Bus just down the road takes you anywhere you want to go and very cheap. supermarket a very short walk away.
WiFi intermittent, though this is more due to the GIB connection rather than the apartment WiFi. 60 steps up to the apartment can be a challenge, especially after a full day walking around.

Verified reviewThe apartment was modern, clean and very well equipped. The view across the bay was lovely. The owner's responses to our questions were swift and helpful. Parking in Gibraltar can be difficult so the private space right outside the property was welcome.
There are 60 indoor steps to climb (no lift). It wasn't too much of a problem for my wife and I but might be for some.

Verified reviewA very tidy apartment with everything you need to cook and enjoy a few drinks on the balcony overlooking the harbour. The location was an easy stroll into town. The bed was comfy and the room was quiet. We will visit again!
Nothing to not like..

Verified reviewGibraltar Straits View is a lovely flat with a terrace with a fantastic view over the Bay of Gibraltar. The living room/kitchen was very well-equipped, comfy and spacious. There is a private parking space available directly outside the flat and it is within walking distance of the centre, cable car and Europa point. There is a supermarket less than 5 minutes away. We will never forget the amazing New Year's fireworks display, which we watched from the terrace. The owner was easy to contact and left some snacks and drinks in the fridge. We would not hesitate to stay here again. It was certainly better value than a more central hotel. There are a lot of stairs to get to the flat so it would not be ideal for someone with mobility problems.
Unfortunately, the surfaces in the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen were quite dusty. We has the impression the flat hadn't been used for a while because the overall cleanliness was good. The mattress could have been better.

Verified reviewGreat location, well furnished, guaranteed parking which is rare in Gib, great views and balcony, great communication and easy check in system.
Only nagging points, there wasn’t any spare toilet roll, and the bed is quite small (it’s a small apartment so I get it, but my feet were hanging off the bed and I’m only 6ft). Slightly more expensive than the Holidays Inn express, but in my opinion, worth it.

Verified reviewFabulous little apartment, very modern, spotlessly clean, amazing sea view from balcony, very quiet and peaceful and parking straight outside the door
The flat is on the 4th floor, and lots of steps, so just be aware if you have mobility problems, and to be very very picky, the bed pillows were very thin. But everything else was perfect
