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.).

AustraliaCleaning could have been a bit better but this was addressed with the manager and should be better.
This was our second stay here. You can see the beach from the balcony it is just across the road and through the park. 5 mins walk. There are 3 beaches, the lakeshore, sandbar just outside the inlet and the surf beach. Fishpen Takeaway is 2 mins walk down the street and is next door to Cranky Cafe. Cranky Cafe bake the best Turkish rolls that we bought fresh each morning to make our own brekky rolls.

AustraliaWe liked everything about the property, although would’ve loved a ground level apartment for the dogs but the balcony and the parks/beaches right across the road was very helpful.
We loved that we could bring our dogs. The property was in a great location and was very comfy for us and our dogs.

AustraliaCleaning needs more attention. Despite the floors being mopped prior to our arrival, they were still very dirty. Kitchen could also have been a bit cleaner. A bit of basic maintenance in the unit is also needed.
Wonderful location close to the beach, lake and a short walk to the township. Unit is comfortable and having the fenced yard was excellent for our small dog. Check in process is quick and easy. Communication is also great.

AustraliaThe only thing I could think of was the TV. It was not smart and the sound was shocking. But then again, if you spend most of your time doing activities you don't need to worry about that.
This is our 3rd stay in Merimbula. All in different accommodation in Fishpen. This has been the best by far. We had the upstairs unit with a large balcony overlooking the park next to the beach. We were just a few minutes walk to the lake and beach. The unit was a good size, light and airy. We had the doors open to the balcony all night and slept to the sounds of the waves, The kitchen is well fitted with a great stove and very good fridge and the pantry was a good size.

AustraliaAll tiled areas were extremely slippery. And that if we used the 2nd room we would be charged extra. Should be charged less for only being allowed to use one room. I thought we paid for the whole apartment.
