How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Kathy is an excellent host! She met us on our arrival and made sure we had the keys and answered all of our questions about the property and the surrounding areas. The accommodation is excellent because it offers a lot of options to cook in house. The binalong Bay Area doesn’t have many food options (Mt Helen’s has more), so having the grill, refrigerator, and microwave with a rice cooker, made it so we could whip up awesome fresh dinners 2 of the 3 nights we stayed. The space is very comfortable and inviting, you won’t regret a stay at the tin shed!

Excellent location, friendly hosts and incredibly comfortable. Don't let the name fool you, this is a modern and spacious stay with heated floors, heated towel racks, and way more thoughtful inclusions than you expect. Will choose to stay here on any future stays to Binalong without any doubt.

Inside, there’s a small table with chairs but no lounge / sofa.
The Tin Shed is located above and at the rear of the hosts’ home, in a totalled walled-off part of their garage. Inside is a simple yet very contemporary unit comprising of a bedroom / lounge area, a vanity sink with a large mirror, and a large toilet / shower room. There’s also a small refrigerator built into the bedroom / lounge and crockery, etc, is supplied. Outside is a covered area with a bbq and outdoor seating and a table, screened off the hosts’ yard with some plants. The rental property is nicely appointed, clean, airy, light and warm. Host Cathy is lovely.

Could not fault. Fantastic location and fantastic views.
Great hosts, Kath & Dick have the house in the front and they rent out the back detached accommodation. Dick runs his own 4WD adventure tours. Great views & walk down the drive way to be on the beach of Bay of fires on the orange rocks. Beautiful couple and fill of information.

It was all fantastic.
What a delight this place is. Hardly a tin shed! It's a fully functional granny flat that is absolutely spotless. It had everything we could need inc a bar fridge, cutlery and crockery, coffee plunder, an *amazing* bathroom that was large and modern with under floor heating. Wifi was good. Chromecast was an option Bed was comfortable. Reverse cycle aircom available if it was cold. Close to the famous 'orange lichen' rocks (you can walk down the hill) and the best location if you are heading out on the Bay of Fires Eco Cruise. This place was truly wonderful and the owners take great pride in offering a comfortable base while travelling.
