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.).

New ZealandOur evening meal was very disappointing. I asked for gluten free steak and it came with battered onion rings on it. My steak was tough and chewy and our other 4 people were also disappointed with their meals. Great to have a tennis court but at least have tennis balls that work and also mow the golfing area so you can actually putt the ball!
The interconnecting rooms were great and meant that all of our family of 5 could stay together

New ZealandQuite small. Dated bedding. Uncomfortable beds. Extremely rude welcome. My friend has a lung disease and is exempt from wearing a mask. A male at checkin told her to stand at the door as he did not want to catch covid and told her it was not a laughing matter. He also hurried me to sign the form and was very abrupt and rude. He wiped down the bench with wipes after I signed it. He did all of this with his mask below his nose and afterwards went into the restaurant where no one wore masks. It was utterly disrespectful.
Had a good restaurant and the staff here were fantastic.

New ZealandWe were not informed upon arrival that there was boil water notice in place for Methvan, found several hours after arrival when I checked my emails. Kitchen could be better equiped, no oven dishes and oven trays were filthy. No cleaning products or enough toilet paper, we went and bought our own.
Location and size of the apartment was great. Surroundings were really nice. Gardens well kept. Beds comfy and great having the laundry

New ZealandThe room was too small, really cramped. the laundry room too close to the our room. The washing machine & dryer was really annoying going all hours. interrupted relaxation time being so close. Was really looking forward to the spa but because it wasn’t covered overhead & right outside the bar didn’t inspire me at all.

New ZealandWe found the place not very clean, dusty table tops, hairs on the ground, dishes not clean when we went to use them. Place was so cold, had old panel heaters on walls, heaters didn’t seem safe and the lounge heater was not enough to keep us warm at all. The restaurant was closed for the two nights we were there.
Location was good.

New ZealandThe bed was terrible. It seems to be an old mattress that sunk and you can feel the springs. Also even if it is 18sq it includes room, kitchen, bathroom. Therefore there is no space to put a suitcase flat in the room and leave it there. Finally some of the staff wasn't that friendly. It has aged and the place loiks older than the pics and it feels no willingness to fix it
Great location that is walking distance to Methven township. Good to be able to cook. Nice to have a spa in the facility. It was nice we could check in earlier.
