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.).

United StatesSpacious, clean, well equipped, centra location, pool and in unit washer & dryer. Heinrich the manager went over and above in accommodating us. We arrived on Good Friday and all the groceries stores we closed, the day before we forward him a small shopping list and all the items were in or fridge upon arrival. He offered a shuttle service to restaurants, tours, airport….etc for a small fee. This is the place to stay in Cairns.

AustraliaNA Nothing to say here. If you are looking for some thing very modern maybe this is not for you? It is a short walk into town but this did not bother us as its a nice walk.
The apartment is everything you would expect for an older style apartment. Some signs of ware but very clean affordable and great amenities. All aircons worked kitchen was basic but had everything you need to make some meals,personally thought the beds were comfy and the water pressure in the shower was top notch! Pool was great and clean. Heinrich was incredible and so friendly answered any questions and was super helpful. Would absolutely stay here again!

The room was clean enough. They had big kitchen and laundry with dryer, drying rack, and some hangers. They prepared some detergent for cook and laundry as well. Shower pressure was strong enough. The staff was so friendly.

AustraliaSadly a little drab but that can be fixed with better lighting and a paint job. The blinds, although great for keeping out the light, make a lot of noise when moving caused by the need to have the fan and air con on high (we were here at end of December / early January and very hot).
Large one bedroom ground floor apartment which faced onto the pool area with small private balcony. Comfortable king size bed. Washing machine and dryer facilities. Fans and air conditioning in main room and bedroom. Cooking facilities. Good shower water pressure.
