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.).

United KingdomThere was nothing to not like about this property😊
Brand new facilities and a very boujie backpacker vibe. Loved the peaceful surroundings and the tours they offer are excellent. I did the kangaroo sunrise adventure and Michelle the tour guide was excellent and the breakfast spread was top tier. Amanda, the owner, could not have done enough to ensure my stay was enjoyable and even drove me to the bus stop in the evening after I checked out.

ChileA bit far from the downtown and supermarkets. but there's public transport, which is not the best one,but still helps.
Amazing place, and amazing staff. Definitely one of the best places I've stayed in Australia. The place just opened a few weeks ago, so everything is kinda brand new. The kitchen and common areas are massive, super comfy and well-equipped. Hope to stay with you again soon!

AustraliaNot a very social hostel, and the staff was not very friendly and helpful. The girl from the staff looked really stressed and was a bit rude when I asked some basic questions. The location is really bad, it is so far from everything.
The place was really clean.

AustraliaThe kitchen area is shared and wasn't kept the cleanest, not to the fault of the facility.
The room itself was clean and enough for what I needed, although a little overpriced for location.

AustraliaOverpriced for what was provided. Facilities and the staff were great, location obviously good for wake park and sporting clubs close by which is why we stayed. But they are charging too much for what is a backpacker hostel. Better options elsewhere for the prices charged.

AustraliaTo me it isnt young family friendly. I didnt like that i have to share the kitchen with randoms. I have a 2 and 4 year old girls who still have bottles throughout the night. Would be nice to just atleast in a family room have a microwave and small fridge to be able to make them bottles throught the night
Its a good spot for older families, people traveling around aus, couples and backpackers
