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 price for the age of the units is way too much. The interior was not adequately cleaned for the price paid. The units need to be updated on the exterior. Improvements required surrounding the units to meet with expectations of the price paid. Parking provided but not sufficient. Parking near reception impossible, had to double park to check in, very uncomfortable start to the holiday.
The reception staff were friendly, helpful and in theme with the beach environment. The proximity to Manly/Queenscliff beach is exceptional. Only a 10-minute walk to Manly Corso, plenty of restaurants, cafes and ferry service to the city of Sydney.

AustraliaParking was tricky, and the door to our apartment needed a chain lock. The lock on the door didn’t work properly and another guest came in our room at 2pm and gave us a huge fright. I mentioned this to management and they were confused how this could happen but didn’t offer us anything to say sorry for that happening.. felt very insecure afterwards and couldn’t sleep. Wouldn’t stay again unless I knew it had the chain lock..
We were upgraded to a two bedroom apartment, plenty of space which was lovely.

AustraliaIt was 5 of us and the room we stayed in was not that comfortable as the sofa had to remain unfolded, so there was no area for the family to hang out during the day. Although the vibe is rustic and cute, it is not really that practical (old furniture, doors not opening/ closing properly/ curtains not moving properly). I think the fridge in that room must be replaced, although the fridge itself was big, but there were only one shelf in it and the bottom of the fridge was full of water. Hot water in the shower didn't last long, it ran out after one person had a shower... There is NO storage in the bathroom and towel rail needed to be fixed as it was barely attached to the wall. With 2 little boys it was a challenge to keep them safe around the room. We were lucky with the weather and spend most of the days outside and came only to sleep.
Location of the Hotel is exceptional, very easy walk to the Manly beach, you can forgive almost anything for it :) Parking (extra 20$/night) was a great option as well, though parking slots are very narrow.

AustraliaRoom 13
Our double room with 1 large bed was amazing for the price comfy bed and nicely presented. However I also booked 2 family rooms 1 on the other side of the road was small but nicely presented but the other one room 13 was atrocious looked like a student share accommodation. Nothing like any of the pictures and obviously not yet renovated . So 2 out of three but the last room bought us undone .
