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.).

AustraliaThe Queen bed in my room had one side I could sleep on. That is my only grumble. It is not the Hilton but for the cost good value.
For the price it would be hard to beat. It is an older building but kept very clean and tidy. The rooms are simple but have what you need to be happy, with cooking equipment and a microwave which most places do not have these days. The staff are very helpful and friendly. I would stay again You are on the edge of Darwin CBD so everything is a walk able distance

AustraliaThe bathroom wasn't super clean - sink still had toothpaste dribble from previous occupant, built up grime, and hair in the shower stall. Not really hotel standard cleanliness if you know what I mean but not so bad that I felt the need the need to ask for another room.
Location was great - very central. The e-scooter bay out the front was super handy.

AustraliaWe booked the family apartment which consists of two adjoining rooms connected by an entrance porch. Our travel companions found the single beds uncomfortable however staff changed them to a double. Generally speaking the facilities and decor need updating.
The location is excellent, close to Smith Street mall, waterfront, Mitchell street and restaurants. Staff were friendly and helpful and it was very good value.

AustraliaThe second two bedroom apartment that we rented had erratic ceiling fans in one room (only worked on the high setting and tended to be noisy, so we made do we the air conditioning on low and quiet, while the second room initially gave issues with getting the air conditioning to work - although the receptionist quickly showed us the trick with the switches and that problem was overcome.
The Luma Luma staff were helpful all through our booking and then changed booking arrangements. They were helpful when we modified our plans. When we had any enquiry or question they were consistently ready to assist. The apartments are conveniently located for easy access to the centre of Darwin and only ten minutes walk from the Waterfront or the Esplanade or the Zen rooftop bar. They also represent value for money, especially as we wanted a two bedroom apartment, compared to other accommodation in Darwin.

AustraliaLuma Luma is an older facility with all the maintenance issues you would expect, but it is clear the operators have done their best to keep up .It is a relatively inexpensive set of apartments so one should not expect 5 star accommodation.
Luma Luma's location was the main determining factor - right in the city. The receptionists were friendly and helpful. The room was basic but cool and clean with all of the amenities one would expect - good air conditioning, hot shower, comfortable bed ... what more would one need?
