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.).

AustraliaThat we could not take the bed with us.
Breakfast was fine, everything offered to us is what we eat for breakfast. The bed was extremely comfortable. I wish I remembered to get the brand and name of the mattress. I would like to replace our old mattress at home. Lovely caring friendly staff. Excellent value for our money.

AustraliaHaving to park next door or out in the street isn't great for someone with a disability. Also very loud in the mornings from 5am onwards with workers leaving and people just being loud.
Beds and pillows super comfortable. Bathroom was good. I loved that they had a quest kitchen, which we used 3 times. Would stay again for sure.

AustraliaNot much to dislike, but a few comments: * We had to scout around for a plug for the kitchen sink (so we could wash the dishes). * The facilities are a little dated but overall we were very happy with our stay at Waterview. * The people in the room next door to our friend were a little noisy well past 10pm, however we realise that could happen anywhere.
We were welcomed with the pleasant surprise that the two rooms I had booked (one for the friend travelling with us) had been upgraded. So my wife and I had a larger-than-usual room and our friend had the bonus of a water view. She was an international visitor and was duly impressed! I also liked the small balcony overlooking the swimming pool.

AustraliaWere not provided with toothpaste/brush but there were soap,shampoo/conditioner dispensers. The fridge was too cold it ended up freezing my medication which I had to dispose as it was no longer safe to use.
It was a cozy room with basic neccesities.

AustraliaLocation would be an issue if you don’t have your own vehicle.
Comfortable and clean motel with a fridge and microwave in the room & guest kitchen down the hall. Front desk person was friendly and let me check in even though I was a little early. They assigned me the first room they had cleaned which was good of them. Location is a little further away from the harbour and town centre but only about a 10 min drive. As long as you have a car it’s a good place,if you don’t I’d look for something a little more central.
