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 wi-fi is a little slow. It can be a little noisy with traffic but only slightly and only when you are used to very quiet nights.
Host is very approachable. Guest house well located for my venue by car or by foot. Room and amenities all very clean. Parking is available at no further charge. Just perfect!

AustraliaI found the location much further from West Ryde and the station than it appeared to be - spent a lot of time driving. The iron in the room had scorch stains (I had to iron my clothes inside out). Not all outlets in power board behind fridge worked. was there an instruction manual for TV? Didn't see one.
Nice clean, quiet room with parking space.

AustraliaCouldn’t get my room tv to work. The exhaust fan in the bathroom was missing it’s cover and was dirty. The double power point next to the hand basin in the bathroom was not securely attached to the wall and could be dangerous.
The bedroom was excellent. The separate bathroom was mostly clean and tidy. Quiet location.

Australiathe ensuite a little small, plus the shelf (sliding door of shower was dusty) so could not put towel over. also the lack of washes was also a concern as partner could not get face wet ... so a washer would have been useful/
like the fact we could park off the street. the kitchen and dining table were good as we came in late and were able to prepare dinner and eat at table instead of in our room. the lounge area was also very comfortable with tv... where i was able to wait while partner was having day surgery.

AustraliaLaundry was supposed to be included in the booking when I book the hotel. I checked before I make the booking. But they said i need to pay for the laundry. I didn’t wash my clothes for 4 days and this is a very bad experience.
The bed is comfortable. The room and toilet is clean.

BrazilIt was a complete stress. When I arrived there was no internet nor the code for the safe that contained the key of my room. After waiting for a while I was lucky that another guest arrived and called the owner. Then the problem became only the internet. She come to restart the router. However the internet was either down or too weak to load a simple page in less than 5 seconds. I had to miss a few working meetings because of that. The only comments from the owner was that the internet was excelent and there was something wrong with the settings of my laptop e smartphone (she was right, both settings only work when there is signal...). I have been in many remote and non-remote places of developed and developing countries and do not remember some internet as bad as this one. I ended up having to buy a sim card less than 24 hourse before a depart from Australia which should have been reinboursed but she just ignored. As a summary: if you need proper internet, don't stay there and avoid a lot of stress.
The house is organized and clean and the bed is comfortable.

AustraliaI would have liked being able to cook but I knew I could not so the microwave was fine. Nothing I really missed.
It was a perfect location for my venue - 30 minutes walk and a lesser walk to the Metro station. There are many buses around. Shops are not far as well as a pub/restaurant. Very convenient home away from home.
