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 balcony is shared with the next door, so no private balcony. Also many bugs got inside. The bathroom ventilation was broken but there were frosted windows so it was okay. Parking was a bit difficult because there were no allocated spot for each room.
The room is spacious, has all you need and has a nice balcony and patio. It is quite cheap and very worth its price. The bed is also very comfy, and the location is very close to restaurants, shopping and transport.

New ZealandRoom had nowhere to hang clothes. There was a cupboard but no rail?? Attended a wedding and had nowhere to hang dress and suit besides bathroom. Bit inconvenient. Also no aircon but did have a fan.
Location was great, easy to walk to city, shops, buses etc. Bathroom was modern and shower pressure was excellent and spa bath was nice treat. Room is a good size and kitchen had everything needed.

New ZealandRoom was quite dated and nothing like the pictures (actually our room was the very last picture). It felt quite cheap. The hotplate couldn't reach the plug so had to find an extension. Not a lot of parking for the amount of rooms. No Aircon the one Fan wasn't enough for 2 Rooms so we had windows open all day and night but it was quite noisy with constructions next door. Once all rooms are renovated it should be much better.
Friendly staff, very well stocked Kitchen, comfortable Beds, Laundry facilities on-site,

New ZealandBe aware if light sleeper it is situated next to a very busy road at a point where vehicles are powering up from traffic lights. Black mouldy rotten base to shower needs replacing. An aircon unit would be good rather than just a floor fan.
Great location, friendly staff, nice well appointed units. Full size fridge/freezer. Good value for money.
