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.).

AustraliaRepair work needed in bathroom. Would be good having a microwave. Fridge ice compartment blocked over with ice. Aircond not working properly. Had to go to lowest setting on control to get cooling. Pay Tv function stopped working after first day. Not connecting to internet. No information on using Hotel wiFi. Would be nice to have daily change of towels, or have 2nd set of towels provided. Floor Under bed quite dusty.
Cleanliness, although some parts in the bathhroom that were worn or signs of disrepair needed covering up. Nice having plates and cutlery provided. Good provision of space for clothes. Well furnished for longer stays.

AustraliaWas not told about $150 bond payment. Apartments are actually a bit old for its price, I guess the price is for it's the location. The lady at the front desk was not very friendly at all, very poor customer service. The cleaners however were wonderful & helpful.
Very spacious 2 bedroom apartment. Great location close to Footy Stadium & shops.

United KingdomThere was a very strong smell of disinfectant or maybe floor cleaner. I had to open the window and leave the room for a couple of hours to let the room air out. They provide washing up liquid, cloth and tea towel but there is no plug for the sink so not sure how I was meant to properly wash the items I used.
Clean, spacious with free parking. Used as a one night stopover and very happy with the hotel.

AustraliaThe bar fridge tended to freeze everything, but the upside was that it made everything cold quickly. The shower could be cleaner. Being so close to Ross Creek means the location is prone to flooding during king high tides.
The bed and pillow were comfortable. The room had everything for a comfortable stay. The shower pressure was great. Location was very close to the Palmer St Precinct and a short walk to the town centre and a nice walk along The Strand. Lots of dining location within two mins walk with a couple of convenience stores across the street.

AustraliaThe apartment although modern looking is a little run down with water leaking from the air con and a few other areas that could be repaired to a better standard. However, these minor defects did not affect our stay and we would definitely stay here again. My only issue would be the pillows, which I found too high and firm, but that's just a personal preference.
Great location in a quieter part of Townsville, yet very close to the strand and Palmer Street (only a few minutes drive). Our apartment had stunning views of the water and a very spacious balcony. It was the perfect size for a family of three. We will definitely be staying here again! Love the bonus of a cafe downstairs for a nice coffee in the morning. The best part was the value for money. It was one of the cheapest accommodation we could find in Townsville that offered two bedrooms

AustraliaUnit we stayed in had not been maintained, quite run down but still serviceable. Requested a new iron because the iron in the room the face of it was black (burnt). Waited over half an hr of it to be delivered, when still hadn't called reception again who got onto housekeeping again and advised they would bring straight away. After 15mins still not there, so had to go out when returned iron (which also wasn't much good) had been delivered.
The location was excellent, the layout and furnishing of the unit was good, however the unit is very tired, (aircon held together with duck tape although still worked). The carpet was worn and other minor issues, so needs a facelift and maintenance. In saying that though I would definitely stay there again. The reception staff were good and tried to be helful when there was a issue that needed to be addressed straight away. The fact there was a coffeshop in the foyer was a bonus as the next closest would have been a 10-15min walk. Very close to many restaurants and the city centre.
