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.).

New ZealandLittle bit of a noisy location if you are wanting a quiet night away but we were there to go out for the nightlife, so it didn't bother us at all.
Great location, close to everything we needed. Great communication with the owners/staff. Easy to check in....with self service. Would definitely stay again.

New ZealandJust the shower, it is a bit dated and the water runs hot to cold when someone else in the building is using the it.
Great location, cute aesthetic, spacious and comfortable room. The kitchenette is well equipped and there were thoughtful practical touches such as bigger milk, extra blankets and towels to use.

AustraliaNo negatives. The noise issue expressed by other guest reviews wasn’t evident to us but we did hear the garbos
Beautifully presented. Well equipped. Comfortable. Quiet as this booking was Monday and Tuesday. So central to cafes and restaurants. Great shopping. Great for walking around the area. Excellent laundry facilities. Super clean

New ZealandOnly issue we had was the “wet floor” bathroom, the shower curtain needs to be longer or something because the water after a shower covered almost the entire bathroom floor. Then the towels were soaked trying to mop it up and we weren’t aware of being able to ask for fresh towels before 10am the following day (until it was too late) so it was soaked towels all weekend. Plus there’s no extractor fan so it just kind of stays wet even with the window open. Also a little noisy at night due to the location (cars, night clubs etc) but this is obviously out of the control of the motel
We were pleasantly surprised by this little motel. Very clean and the room was exactly as advertised. Great location close to both the beach and Pilot Bay but also only 3 steps away from the Main Street of eateries and shops. As someone who religiously relies on reviews I would definitely recommend this place

New ZealandContactless, guests have to call reception for room service…… every day. I think they count on people not calling, and we didn’t bother the second morning. Ridges south bank Brisbane offer guests AU$10 room credit for each day guests elect not to get room service. You may like to consider this policy. I took the room service at ridges.

United StatesContactless check-in worked ok but it would have been so much better to talk to a person when checking in at the motel about local activities and especially to get a map. Maps and brochures were available but I had no idea where to find them until I met the proprietor after 24 hours of my stay. Once I had a map, everything was much easier. It would be great if a map was provided in the room. Also, I really didn't like having the tv in the living room which was not that easy to see from the bedroom.
It was very nice, clean, and comfortable and in a perfect location with easy access to the Mount for walking trails and the hot pools plus close to restaurants.

The information provided on where to eat and what to do was awesome and the 60 sky channels were a bonus to watch the nrl!! The bed was comfy and all the amenities we needed were there. Also the owners were very nice when we saw them briefly. Thank you!!
