Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

New ZealandMusty smell in room, cleanness of room needs improvement, needs painting and needs more heating. At least one heater needed per room.
Good location, 2 rooms, low price, comfy beds, and a nice hot shower.

NetherlandsThe appartment was a little outdated and someone had damaged some furniture and so, which is a shame. The ligthing was a bit poor, perhaps replacing some broken lightbulbs will help (minor fix).
The appartment is located near the main street, however the traffic noise will die down during the night. It has a kitchen, which I didn't use, and a table with chairs to sit at. The manager is a friendly young man, who will help you when needed. The restaurants are within walking distance and sightseeing locations are around, use car. It is not the most luxurious but it will suit your stay for a couple of days with the experience of a small NZL town.

New ZealandThe kitchen was so dated and in many places in dismal repair. I wouldn't have wanted to have created a meal in it. No plug for the vanity. A refresh definitely needed throughout.
Crisp clean and comfortable beds. Shower pressure was great.

New ZealandBut it was very shabby - holes in the walls, several lights that didn’t go, ripped wall paper, a fridge that was difficult to open, because on carpet, no bowls to eat cereal from, an insecure , in-stuck piece of vinyl in the entrance doorway that could cause a trip., burn mark on floor vinyl. It was pretty horrible to be honest. I realise the motels may be used for emergency housing - and good on you for doing that.
Bed was comfortable and clean. Shower was good. It had almost everything we needed.

New ZealandWe had the room closest to the front - maybe 10 metres from the main road - every truck that went by caused the room to shake - earthquake level. Also having the heaters on caused a short-circuit and no lights - very nice guy in the front office sorted it out eventually
Good shower - pressure and no temperature fluctuations like in our last motel

New ZealandThe main house that is on the property accommodates interesting people. There was a couple singing horrendous karaoke about 6 metres from my unit between the hours of 7.30pm - 10.30pm and cleaning staff who also resided in the house were verbally and physically violent towards young relatives on the premise within 6 metres of my unit. Also there was no extraction fan above the stove top so smoke alarm went off during the first 2 minutes of cooking steak.
Receptionist was accommodating and lovely to speak to also the room was exceptional clean.

New ZealandI stayed at Broadway lodge over the Easter weekend and would highly recommend this place. There is an old New Zealand aesthetic to Stratford which makes the atmosphere really enjoyable. The apartment was clean, staff were respectful, facilities were well equipped (tv, cleaning liquid, towels), close to local shops in Stratford and the Egmont National park. Everything was available to make my stay enjoyable, and having a base to adventure in Taranaki was fantastic.

New ZealandUnit was very run-down with poor kitchen equipment, to the extent I hesitated to use it, looked like old stove replacement - so who did that electric work ?? holes smashed in doors, barely a light-bulb anywhere in the fittings, wallpaper ripped off the walls, dirty carpet. Obviously not repaired after emergency housing.
Anil the manager did all he could to make my stay more comfortable including extra bedding - but he had to launder extra duvet to do so - shld have extra stores available - (not his fault). Anil the manager very helpful with local information.
