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.).

AustraliaRoom smelt a little musty. Access would have been tricky if we'd brought our (very heavy) suitcases - and a car.
Convenient location (5 minutes' drive from our son's flat). Comfy bed, clean sheets. Easy check-in/out.

AustraliaWater pressure in the showers was quite low. There was a slightly stale smell at times, as if there might have been some old water damage.
Great location at a great price. Bed was super comfy and we slept wonderfully. Chris and Helen were wonderful hosts.

AustraliaDriveway into the property was very steep with unsteady paved bricks. I didn't drive to the property but would feel nervous doing so.
Heat lamps in the shower. Heated electric mattress topper - all great for winter. Mini fridge, toaster, microwave and kettle made eating cheaply easy. Good location for visiting lane Cove and hunters Hill. Owners were great. Bus stop right outside.

AustraliaWe are elderly and with mobility issues so a steep driveway was a challenge but this is clearly identified in the property description. A grab rail for access/egress from a raised tiled shower recess would have been welcome. Location suited our visit purpose very well but being from interstate we had no car and whilst it was only a twenty minute walks to shops and restaurants it was a bit too far for us and again this was purely down to our circumstances.
Lovely private setting with pretty courtyard garden outlook. Very convenient for bus right outside property. Nice waterfront walks nearby. Hosts really lovely and accommodating. The electric blanket was welcome on our cold nights stay in August.

AustraliaGlass sliding door wouldn't lock but the screen door did. Hosts need to be mindful not to walk in during a stay. My daughter was surprised when in the bathroom when a host tried to walk in the bathroom. Easy mistake but perhaps negotiate any entrance into the apartment during a stay.
Location of the property was lovely. A private little apartment with its own entrance and a nice nook to sit outside. Hosts were friendly and helpful.

AustraliaThe parking was crowded and a bit awkward. But, that didn’t detract from the overall experience.
The personal and hospitable service of the host went above and beyond what you expect in the hospitality industry. The host really made you feel welcome and nothing was a bother. A personal offer of an early morning call was reassuring.

AustraliaThe entrance to get directly to the rooms by car is a complete disaster. Extremely steep and narrow, I personally find it dangerous. If it rains, your car will slip on the way down.

AustraliaVery steep driveway which can be challenging in car or by foot. Small accommodation. I appreciate my privacy and this needs to be respected.
The location was good for my needs, but you do need a car (in my opinion) to get to other parts of Sydney. It was quiet and secluded.

AustraliaVery steep driveway, had to reverse down to house next door to turn in forward direction to exit property. Not for everyone especially if you had a large car. Its an older style property, which needs a make over and update. Had a stale smell as there are no windows, only the front sliding doors. Friendly, polite gentleman looked after us.
