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.).

AustraliaUnit needed deep clean. Main bathroom shower & basin needed cleaning. Curtains needed rehanging. Food & previous tenants belongings left under lounges & mat. WiFi was useless.
Communication with key pick up excellent. Location good, close to trams & supermarket. Lovely indoor pool, tennis court & gym.

AustraliaThe apartment was dusty and messed with the 2 of us who had dust allergy/hay fever. it was carpeted, the a/c vents were dirty, wardrobe tracks were dirty, and the apartment dated. Lack of permanent hanging space for wet towels etc. Apartment had a faint smell of cigarettes as though people had been smoking on the verandah with the doors open. The lounges weren't very comfortable.
The beds, although hard and at first feel, uncomfortable, were surprisingly good as everyone slept well. The apartment was spacious and had everything you needed. We even scored some bonus ice creams (we assumed left in the freezer by the last guest) The lifts were fast. We are extremely greatful.for the staff member who replied to our plea for help when we forgot the code and were locked out of the apartment at midnight. We liked its proximity to trams, supermarkets, and Southbank Yarra River esplanade.. Although it likened being in a fish bowl with views straight into many apartments, it was good entertainment, like watching 100s of reality tv channels at once! 😂

AustraliaThe apartment was a little outdated and a few furnishings were old and needed maintenance (eg, kitchen table), but otherwise great price for what was offered.
Great location, easy to find. Parking, pool and view was great. Considering it was grand prix in Melbourne, the price was really reasonable. Lovely customer service and friendly people in the building too. Would definitely stay again, thanks

AustraliaA bit outdated, floor very uneven and damaged but didn't affect us. Place could have been a little cleaner. Laundry very dirty. Beds lovely clean linen. Not very comfortable though. Lifts were very frustrating due to not enough working and many users. Although adequate for our stay.
Self contained apartment. Had everything we needed for our stay. Good location. Very good host. Very helpful. Let us check in early at no extra cost. No complaints.

AustraliaOnly disappointment was the hiccup at the start which was quickly sorted and also the tv wouldn't connect to the internet which my kids didn't like. Apart from that nothing else.
The view was awesome. The room was great and comfortable 😌. My kids loved being on the balcony watching night lights etc.

AustraliaThe room did not have a Reception desk, however that was no problem as I had great communication with my contact. We were contacted via SMS the morning of arrival to discuss ETA. We were met at the front and escorted to the room where we paid our room bond on a portable EFTPOS and received our keys and instructions. It was a really enjoyable stay. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Thank you for the late check out. See you again.

Facilities were amazing and staff were friendly and willing to do last minute changes for us.

The facilities available were great for our group to have fun & to entertain. Very roomy for families or groups staying together. The location was great all in walking distance. To the casino only a 15min walk. Lastly the view from our rooms were amazing!

AustraliaThe apartment needs to be updated in the lounge and kitchen area. Fry pans renewed and exhaust fan filters cleaned. The couches in the lounge are stained and retain odour. A more durable and resilient fabric would do this.
All the above. Also Earnest was the most polite and professional staff member. He was courteous and made our stay so much more comfortable he made our welcome very special.
