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 apartment is beautiful however, there was a smell coming from the couch (needs a good steam clean). The staff responded quiet quickly via text & was friendly.
I really enjoyed the size of the apartment, enough space for a couple. The view of the ocean just breathless! Also, the local supermarket is beautiful short drive.

AustraliaWhile the view is wonderful, there is no beach access without driving; it would be great to have a path down to the beach across the road. Dead mouse in the kitchen the first morning! Wouldn't stop us from staying there again!
The view over the ocean is amazing, you can sit on the couch and watch the waves rolling in. The apartment is comfortable and the gas heater was very efficient on cooler evenings. The kitchen is very well equipped and we had everything we needed for our stay.

AustraliaThe sofabed wasn't super comfortable. It was pretty expensive but price was consistent with other properties in the area at this time of year.
Amazing location and view from the balcony was spectacular. Electric fireplace was a great touch and heated up the place very quickly. Very close to Apollo Bay and Wye River. The host was lovely, super helpful, responsive.

United KingdomRules/threats about emptying rubbish before checking out. Was a little dated/worn, eg very old washing machine, lettering had faded on the dish washer. Nothing overly bad, just not sure it justified the price.

AustraliaThe bathroom wasn't as clean as we would have preferred. There were cobwebs hanging in the bathroom and from some light fittings. There was soap scum around the tap fitting. The recreational area/room was great but very tired.
The location and views from our accommodation were absolutely beautiful. It was a cozy apartment and perfect for a weekend away.

AustraliaThe apartment is very tired, with mould in the shower, incomplete tap fittings and standard items missing from the kitchen, ie baking tray, cooking oil, scourer for cleaning. The most disappointing issue was no hot water for a full 5 minutes after turning on the tap - such a waste of a precious commodity - everytime hot water was needed, be it showering or washing dishes, it was 5 minutes getting to the tap.
The location's view is great, albeit across the road from the sea - not shown in the images. The bed was very comfortable.

AustraliaThere is a step in the hallway which is well marked but my mother did have a fall on it - could it have a ramp rather than sharp step? It is not walking distance to town or beach which I'm sure is mentioned in the details - but I didn't realise.
The view was amazing and it was very clean. The games room was a fantastic surprise for my 12 year old son. The kitchen facilities and bathroom had good facilities. Beds were comfortable. It was nice and quiet.
