How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

- • Couple
- • Standard Queen Room
- • Stayed 1 night
Location is not good. No electric lifts. Need to climb up stairway despite many stairways being provided at the Inn. No telephone provided, so one needs to walk down to the office to make inquiries.
We were allocated room upstairs on first floor. We are aged couple and there was nothing alternative. This property has no lift and therefore concrete steps are available from all sides. Quite steep and elderly people cannot be expected to climb up the stairway with suitcases. They will pant for breath and die of suffocation. Owned by possibly Chinese migrants and they use Chinese workers to clean up the rooms. This should be fine as they do same jobs like any other Australians do. There should be open description of the property by Booking Com to explain that there is no electric lifts as such and customers are expected to climb the stairway upstairs floor. The location is also not conducive for easy access to trains etc and other shopping centres. There is a KFC store directly opposite the Inn and shopping centre diagonally behind the Inn for Coles supermarket and other convenient stores.

There was the smell of smoke in the room when we first arrived though this dissipated quickly.
Ideally located for our purposes this room was a clean retro style motel accommodation straight from the 80s. The staff were very helpful and the facilities while dated were clean and comfortable.

Unfortunately the outside lights were left on all night, I guess for security reasons. But the curtains in my room didn’t block out all the light.
The cleanliness of the room was perfect. The bathroom was exceptional. The bed was really comfortable and the heating in the room was tops. On top of all that the crockery and cutlery were clean and everything worked.

Very poor WiFi signal - only good at location close to door, not in room, had to use my data plan on phone. When ask the manager about WiFi issue, the answer is "I cannot help, signal changes from device to device". The room is lack of AC outlets. We did not have toothpaste and asked for help, the manager's answer is "this is a motel only, we do not provide it." So, the manager's attitude was poor - this is a motel only, it is what it is, if you are not happy, you can change to another place.
This is a motel, got what I paid for. Close to the center. Room is cleaned daily, has some chairs and cabinets. Glad that it has a refrigerator, which is better than some "hotel".
