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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 sofa bed was very uncomfortable, the decor dated and the TV didn’t seem to work (there were no instructions or remotes I could see - this didn’t bother us personally but is worth noting). There was no fan in the bathroom so a light coating of mould on the ceiling. It was definitely a 3.5 star property at best.
We found our bed comfortable and the apartment spacious and generally well equipped. The garden setting was pleasant, I enjoyed sitting on the balcony and we also slept well. The free, secure parking underground out of the sun was a plus. Overall, the property was good value for money. We also received clear and effective instructions for accessing the property after hours.

ColombiaThe only thing that needs improvement is the sofabed, it feels old and uncomfortable, the person that slept there didn't rest well.

AustraliaStairs. This was a struggle as I have bad knees and 30 stairs each way was painful. The other thing was the water pressure in the shower, this was extremely poor. 3rd thing was the TV. Really think channel 7 & 9 should be available.
Unit clean and spacious. Booked last minute and was very pleased. Good value for money. All facilities in unit including washing machine & dryer. Although we had a car, used a taxi a couple of times and very reasonable fare to city being less than $15.00. Lovely to sit on chair on balcony. Great air cons & screens.

AustraliaThe place was filthy and had a really bad smell. We had to go get supplies to clean the walls ourselves as the dust build up above the beds was really bad. The cooking facilities were average with only 3 pieces of cutlery for a place that slept 4.
It was a nice sized apartment.

Heather and Warren were great hosts, very helpful and respectful. Room was very well equiped, Bed was very comfortable, room was clean and presented well, The pool needed to be leaf cleaned , the spa unit connected to the pool does not work, but good size pool, great for an evening cool down, open till 10pm.. Close to bus route and easy walk to main CBD about 1 and a half kms along Lake Street, also very easy access to the Esplanade by the sea, 1 block over 10 minute walk, which is an awesome place for a stroll or take the kids for bike rides and a swim, in the awesome water play areas. Has a great coffee / food place also in the same area. Great pickup location for most activity providers, Kuranda Rail, Skyrail, Dive operators, Island Tours etc.
