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.).

AustraliaThe room was very dated and not as clean as I would have liked. We dusted and cleaned under the chairs and couch. The crockery and cutlery also was very stained from the dishwasher. Very limited cooking items. Also the cooking smell from the other rooms on the floor were sometimes very overpowering.
Location was great, view was fabulous and the pool was very good. Towels were very fluffy.

We loved the spaciousness of the apartment and the view over the esplanade and water. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The facilities were a bit tired but adequate and when the washing machine didn't function it was quickly replaced. The apartment was fairly soundproof - we never heard noise during the night

United StatesOur first night was hot because the air conditioning really needs better explanation. There are so many details that it’s easy to miss that there is a night setting and we are not familiar with such a system. Once it was explained we were great with it. Also, the couches really look beat up - they should be replaced.
Great location and very convenient.

United KingdomThe apartment is very tired and needs upgrading. Needs more furniture in the bedrooms, no chest of drawers or shelves. We stayed 8 nights, so was difficult to fully unpack.
Location was lovely opposite the Esplanade, a good 25 minute walk to central Cairns. Balcony was lovely. We had a problem with the fridge/freezer and it was replaced with a new one the next day. Customer service was excellent.

AustraliaCouple of minor screw driver fixes, which I'm sure has been attended to after mentioning. Built in cupboards - heaps of hanging rails in both bedrooms - an advantage would be free standing set of shelves to at least put clothes somewhere. Bedside drawers hold very little.
Excellent ocean view & of the Esplanade foreshore. Great walking paths & exercise equipment opposite. Central to nearby eateries & easy walk into city centre. Underground car parking as well las rear entrance upper-level short term drop off or pick up. Large apartment suited to a family. With air con on no street noise & generally not much traffic sound as very reduce speed limit. Right next door to Cairns Hospital so very suited to visiting hospitalized family. Staff friendly & obliging - willing to assist any queries. Overall excellent stay.
