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.).

AustraliaMaybe a more comfortable lounge and perhaps foot stools would have been good.
I went with 3 girlfriends so we split the bill which made it affordable. Everyone was happy with location and views were just to die for. It was very quiet and relaxing and that was the type of holiday we were all looking for

AustraliaParking.
Everything was surprisingly good quality and standard for the price. The only thing that let it down was that there was no secured undercover parking for us although there were only a few cars parked undercover. You get what you pay for, I suppose.

AustraliaThe cool air from air conditioner didn’t reach around the corner to the lounge. A fan would be helpful to direct the cool air into the lounge area
It was a pool studio apartment which we could walk into on the ground floor.

AustraliaOnly 2 coffee pods for 2 people satying for 3 nights was a bit tight. The car parking spaces were undercover which was great given the very hot weather but they are so small, it was difficult to get out of the car once parked.
The views from the appartment were sensational. The bed was really comfortable, with nice pillows too and the appartment was well appointed.

AustraliaNo staff at reception or on the property after 5pm to control inconsiderate guests like i had to put up with.
Spacious room, bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, bathroom a little outdated and the toilet seperate from the shower and basin was a good idea. I had a room with no view (my choice) but the rooms with a view would be great. The thing that impressed me the most was a 300ml fresh milk in the fridge for tea and coffee. You will need to drive for shops etc as nothing much in walking distance
