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.).

AustraliaA little hot due to the summer weather and the sun hitting the room in the afternoon. There were fans available in the room but that only did so much. It seems like it is a big place and may not be the glory that it used to be. Staff are working really hard to keep up with demand but appear to be a little short handed. They tried really hard to be responsive when we asked for things. The pool was not clean when we got there but they were working on it. There may be other areas of the accommodation that are a but run down.
We read some reviews after booking which made us very nervous about what we would find on arrival. These reviews were a bit too harsh. It was a nice place with facilities to be able to cook your own meals. It was clean and house keeping came around daily. The section we stayed in was fairly recently done. It was clean and comfortable.

New ZealandSadly the pool walls are green with algae and the ladder to exit requires gymnastic abilities. The rooms was very tired with badly scuffed Lino and walls but well cleaned when you look past the marks. Access to parking is a bit bumpy, not a problem with careful driving.
Large pool with clear water. Good facilities in kitchen. Lovely grounds and friendly staff. Very comfortable bed with plenty of fresh clean linen. Towels replaced frequently.

United KingdomThere were a number of problems with the maintenance / standard of cleanliness. The lock to our main entrance couldn't be locked from the outside, and in spite of promises made by the manager it still hadn't been fixed 4 days later - we had to lock the door from inside, go out of the back door (which couldn't be opened from outside) and exit via a rickety staircase to the ground floor and a unlit passage to get to the front of the property and access to the parking/drive. The pool, spa and laundry were all out of action. The beds weren't made properly - a sheet on the bottom, then mismatched old quilts of dubious state, covered by another crisp white sheet on top to make it look good; so to be able to sleep between 2 good sheets we had to leave the room looking not nearly as good. The floors all looked clean when we arrived but on closer inspection the lino floors in the kitchen area and bathroom had only been swept, not cleaned - there were tea/coffee stains on the floor and dried muddy puddles.
The motel was in a good location, with views over a nearby bay from some apartments.
