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 inside of our accommodation was very outdated.
The reception/manager Craig was amazing,very helpful and welcoming. Location was spot on with ocean views! The pool was well designed for smaller children to the big ones! Absolutely will stay again! The unit we stayed in, the furniture was outdated and also kitchen/bathrooms. Overall though, Craig made us welcome and made sure we were happy 😊

AustraliaThe apartment is very tired and has a particular smell that pervades it. It really needs updating with new furniture and decoration. The main shower is terrible with poor water flow. The apartment looked like it needs a good clean. There was a dirty tissue on the verandah and behind the couch. We had to keep the verandah doors closed a lot of the time because of people smoking outside which blew straight into the apartment.
The apartment had a good view and a good outdoor balcony. It was located well for our purposes. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was a good size and clean.

AustraliaRipped-Off is not the usual memory one would like to take away from a holiday, but it will forever be my lasting memory of 'The Gums Anchorage'! The first thing that hit us was the stomach-churning smell throughout the whole apartment. Kitchen was REVOLTING, think Nanna's kitchen that should have been ripped out and thrown in the bin 20 years ago. Dead cockroach at the front of the first kitchen cupboard opened. The fact that the cockroach is being mentioned as a secondary issue will indicate just how BAD the SMELL was in the apartment! Had to go to Woolies and buy picnic ware to eat take-away off, as we were not eating off or cooking in anything from out of that kitchen! Stained carpet. Old food left under couch (didn't notice this until day 3, unfortunately, at which time we packed-up and left early). The bed in the main bedroom did not have a bedhead, so you were sleeping with your pillow and head mushed against a very unsavoury looking painted brick wall. Had to sleep with all the windows and balcony doors open in a bid to get some breathable air, so a possible security issue there. Shower screen in main bathroom is broken and nearly falls on top of you as you try to get out of it. In short - STAY AWAY! There are many private holiday rentals on Bribie now. Do yourself a favour and give your money to someone who takes pride in presenting a property that is pleasant and welcoming to guests!
