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.).

New ZealandIt is a little dated, the water mixers could do their job a bit better.
This apartment building is an amazing remainder from a time when going up in the buildings lift didn't make your ears pop. A laid back friendly place, right on the beach and one street shy of cavill ave the Olympus apartments have seen the Gold Coast grow from its infanthood and its stills ranks proudly amongst its shiny, contemporaries. Everything in the apartment was clean, nothing was broken the doors, kettle, air con, washer and dryer and gave quality performances but the best bit... The balcony. To be able to sit comfortably with a friend on the balcony overlooking the water without knuckles gripped white on the arm rests of chairs everytime the wind blows, that to me, is truely a great base to a perfectly relaxing holiday.

SwitzerlandIt was miles cleaner than last time, but my wife still had to wipe the wooden headboard clean. It were stained brown in some places. Besides that, we were very happy w/ everything else.
Location is best. Sleep to the sound of the surf. It was a tremendous improvement from our previous stay. Management seems to have changed and things have improved. But, apts are individually owned, and I cannot speak for the others.

AustraliaNot much of a complaint, but the kitchen lacked a few things like… steak knives and oven or pizza trays And the main bathroom had nowhere to hang towels. Other than that everything else was great!
I loved the location, beachfront with full beach/ocean views 😃 and walking distance to everything.

New ZealandThe apartment is rundown and needs a lot of upgrading, especially for the amount we paid. Also, not recommended for a family of x4 adults and 2 kids, not enough space even in the rooms. Washing machine and drier needs upgrading. Aircon needed in the rooms, the fans didn't help at all. There was no mop for wet floors, no vacuum either. We only got one key for access to our room so couldn't really 'do our own individual thing'.
The location was fantastic, beautiful views of the beach and the esplanade. Easy access to everywhere.

AustraliaWe were asked to clean the apartment and were threatened that if we don’t, we might be charged extra. This was extremely weird for us as it is a hotel providing a service for the guests, not the other way around :) cleaning by the staff should be included in the charges as in every other hotel all over the world….
Great location, close to the central area of Surfers Paradise with all the shops and restaurants. The apartment was fairly clean upon our arrival and it was more spacious than expected.

AustraliaCheck-in was meant to be at 2pm but when we arrived at the property 2:30pm it still wasn’t ready and we were told to wait. I got a call earlier from the lady at reception telling me that they are only open until 3pm to check-in but she didn’t mention that the room wasn’t ready. Had I known that, I wouldn’t have rushed to come by 3pm, I would have just checked in after hours. Also, this place isn’t big enough for 3 people. The bed they put in for the 3rd guest was super uncomfortable but luckily the man on the reception brought an extra mattress which made it better.
The view was amazing!
