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 apartment requires some maintenance. The bathroom door did not close entirely shut and needed to be pushed closed. Also, would have loved to have seen a frying pan in the kitchen, as it made cooking breakfast in the morning a little challenging, but not impossible.
Location of this property was great. We thought that being in the front apartment and on the main road might present some noise issues, but this was definitely not the case. Located in the heart of Cowes, the apartment was a very comfortable walking distance to the beach, cafes and restaurants and supermarkets. A secured car park was a bonus. Our apartment could have easily accommodated for a family of four and therefore was very spacious and more than accomodating for 2 people.The apartment was well allocated. Picking up our keys from Phillip Island Apartments, as communicated to us before we arrived, was easy and not an issue at all. Reception staff was genuinely kind and helpful, and ensured we had all our queries answered before we got to the apartment.

AustraliaHad some trouble locating where to collect keys from. Had to drive to another location 5 mins away to pick up keys and had trouble locating the entrance of this property. No lifts and had to carry luggage all the way to the top floor Parking was troublesome as the slot given to me was wedged in between wall and a pillar
The apartment at Thompsons is situated at a great location . Coles,Woolworths etc are nearby and also in close proximity to Coves beach. The room was clean and tidy. Please note no lifts and will have to carry luggage through stairs.

AustraliaThe carpets and blinds were dirty. The outdoor area hadn’t been cleaned well. The water had been switched off one night and I wasn’t informed so had no access to water or couldn’t use the toilet for a night.
The rooms were nice and beds were a good size. The open space living area was nice as well.

AustraliaWe were staying in room 9. We washed some clothes were brought Friday night expecting to wear them Saturday, but once we washed them. The dryer wasn’t working so we couldn’t wear them. Also there was a random old sock under in the bathroom
I didn’t get breakfast but the apartment itself was amazing. Very big & had everything we needed. Happy with what we paid for. Easy to access and a pretty good view
