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.).

New ZealandCould do with a potatoe peeler in the draws.
Heather and Warren were great hosts, very helpful and respectful. Room was very well equiped, Bed was very comfortable, room was clean and presented well, The pool needed to be leaf cleaned , the spa unit connected to the pool does not work, but good size pool, great for an evening cool down, open till 10pm.. Close to bus route and easy walk to main CBD about 1 and a half kms along Lake Street, also very easy access to the Esplanade by the sea, 1 block over 10 minute walk, which is an awesome place for a stroll or take the kids for bike rides and a swim, in the awesome water play areas. Has a great coffee / food place also in the same area. Great pickup location for most activity providers, Kuranda Rail, Skyrail, Dive operators, Island Tours etc.

AustraliaMy wife and I arrived by shuttle bus at around 8.45 pm. We were standing in the rain trying to get into the security gate after being given a wrong entry code and could not contact the owners. We didn't enjoy having to carry our luggage up and down 30 steps.
The owners were very friendly and helpful. I was impressed with the excellent security around the apartments and there was plenty of off street secure parking. The kitchen and laundry facilities were very good.

AustraliaNothing to report.
The open plan living room and kitchen area was spacious and comfortably furnished, enough for us (guests) and visiting relatives. The apartment was clean and everything was there that we needed. Off-street carparking is safe and convenient. Our room faces the busy Lake Street front, but the road noises were not intrusive at all.

AustraliaBooked for 2a2c and online said 1 bed a day 1 sofa bed. There was no linen for sofa bed and had to get it from the reception and make the up the bed myself. not a huge issue in the scheme of things but the sofa bed was terrible. Lumpy and saggy. There is no way 2 people could sleep on that. The pillows were so bad we went out and got new ones from spotlight.(we drove so to took them home with us) Also the fan in the fridge was so loud when it kicked in that it could be heard in the bed room and made it hard to sleep on the sofa bed. Only small hot water system. Put on 1 load of washing on warm wash and I had a shower with my toddler and the hot water ran out when my husband went to shower. Small cockroach crawled on me while I slept. Thought I was imaging things but found the squished body in the bed the next morning. Saw some small ones in the kitchen.
Location. Lots of undercover parking. Pool was lovely. The Queen bed in the bedroom was good to sleep on. Apartment was a good size

Excellent location. Brilliant facilities. Amazing and friendly staff. Beautiful pool till 10 pm. All kitchen items if you love cooking. Great airconditioninig. Washing machine and dryer. Spacious rooms! In short, we just loved this place for a short stay.
