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 lounge was low and I had difficulty getting out of it. An armchair which was higher would have been good. Written instructions for using the stove, dishwasher and washing machine would have been helpful.
The location was very good near to Glenelg Beach. It was very quiet. The apartment was spacious and had a very comfortable bed. Having some of the basics such as a litre of milk was really helpful. Plus washing powder and detergent etc was great as were the spare tooth brushes and toothpaste. Shower gel would have been good in addition to soap.

AustraliaThe place was amazing but I did have too go and buy a pillow because they were just much too fat for me. Sound a bit fussy but anyway.
Great location. Stayed 4 nights pool and gym in the mornings. Yoga nearby or jump on your push bike and cruise up and down the coast. Beautiful places for dinner. 🙂

AustraliaHelen was helpful and attentive. The property was spacious and really comfortable for our family of three. Extra touches were very much appreciated including sparkling wine, breakfast essentials and toiletries. It’s a perfect location for the tram in and out of the city, just a couple of minutes walk. Taxis and Uber also easy to grab from the front of the property. The hotel pool was a great bonus. Although there is some noise from the bar downstairs (we were there over Friday/Saturday night, it did finish early and didn’t disturb our sleep.

United StatesIt’s worth remembering that the building is primarily a hotel and with that comes some hotel guest noise and no privacy on the balcony which is overlooked by other balconies. The daily parking rate as at March 2023 is $22 (not $12 as was listed in booking.com)
A great apartment for our 6 night stay in Glenelg. Location was perfect (quick walk to the beach & Jetty Road) and the apartment was clean, comfortable and a good size for two. The Property Manager (owner) was very responsive to questions and requests. It was nice to find some of the kitchen necessities already in the apartment (tea/coffee, milk and breakfast cereals) plus bathroom necessities like toothpaste & toothbrush, soaps, shampoo etc. That just made it all easier to get settled. The TV includes Netflix and cable so my husband was happy!

AustraliaThe shower set up in the bath could have been better. Some younger local teenagers knew how to sneak into the Hotel and use the pool and sauna area which was a let down as they abused the space. Around the main attractions there were some local desperates, drunk asking for money and cigarettes, easy enough to pass them by.
You can walk to everything and there is plenty to satisfy. Assortment of Great food. Music scene. Sexy people. Beautiful weather, Comfortable apartment, full size fridge, King bed very good easily enough space. Families also have great access to all that is on offer. Ferris wheel, Glenelg Jetty, Mosely Cabanas on the beach, Historical Markers of significance, Glenelg Beach itself, Clear water, Paths to walk to everywhere, Green Parkland, Relaxed and uplifting at the same time.
