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.).

AustraliaPerhaps update the signage at the entrances as they are at the rear of the Chinese restaurant and they are a little daggy, especially the handwritten one. It's not a great way to welcome people. Once I got inside it was all fine.
Excellent location opposite the beach. Comfy bed, spacious room. Quiet and clean.

AustraliaRooms are OK, but in our case we paid for two rooms - one was a better room, however we have stay in a very ordinary rooms. You can smell restaurant cooking in your rooms.
Nice central location. All rooms on a second floor. Located above the restaurant. New bathrooms. Clean bedding. Everything very basic. Good for one or two night stay.

AustraliaThe access was very poor. It was the back of some sort of store or restaurant. Entrance carpet was getting dirty rapidly and had an unclean look.
The room was smaller than anticipated in photographs, but facilities were very good. The toilet was extremely small, but well appointed. Had an appearance of refurbishment overall. Quite pleasant in the room.

AustraliaProvide bowls for cereal, though this is a very minor point and doesn't detract from my overall opinion of the room or stay.
Great location in the centre of Apollo Bay. Easy to find and self check in very clear. We were upgraded to The Queen Room which was lovely. The bed was very comfy, the shower hot and it was a nice touch to have cutlery and plates provided and cartons of milk instead of the small pots.

AustraliaThe hot water takes about 3 minutes before it warms up, which is an incredible waste of water. I think management needs to sort this out quickly. Australia is always short of water, we shouldn't waste it.
The room was quite OK although the window with the sea view was in need of a clean.

AustraliaBooked 2 rooms - 1 and 10 were allocated. One was supposed to be superior in size but both were the same size. Also in room 1 the sink is cracked badly. Staircases need a good scrub and renovating. A coat of white paint would make them look and feel more of a beach vibe. Dead plant on entrance at the back is off putting. Carpets on stairs and landing need a steam clean. Path down the side was littered with cigarette butts.
Rooms have been renovated and were spotlessly clean. Location is great on the Main Street and close to all amenities and across the road to the beach.

Convenient location to restaurants, supermarkets and very close to Apollo Beach. Mattresses were surprisingly comfortable. We were provided with enough towels and amenities for our stay.
