Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

AustraliaA delightful, light filled space. Cosy, comfortable and quiet. One of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever had the pleasure of sleeping in! The hosts were so accommodating. I had requested to store my luggage before check in and this was no issue, however they then went above and beyond by quickly preparing the space after the previous guests left early. This was unexpected and completely welcome as it made my stay in the area stress free. I would not hesitate staying in this beautiful space again, especially after having the chance encounter with the hosts which included a genuine and friendly conversation. Thank you so much!

AustraliaSo quiet, clean and comfortable. Even though in the suburbs it was very peaceful. The unique architecture made us feel we were staying in something special, not just an average room. We will use this room on our next Melbourne visit.

New ZealandA little dusty and no long mirror, but not a major problem.
We stayed four nights. Lovely loft extension of a beautiful period property. Photos do the place justice. I’m very tall, but had no problem with the rafters. There was plenty of space. Close to shops, restaurants and transport. I don’t usually like wet room bathrooms, however didn’t find any great difficulty with this one, even though it’s snug.

The apartment is immaculate, situated at the rear of a beautiful house in a lovely quiet road. It is spacious and light, stylish and cool, yet super comfortable and cosy too. The apartment is well equipped with everything you could want or need for a comfortable stay. It is a short walk to cafes, nice good value restaurants and Coles supermarket. There is plentiful and easy street parking immediately outside.

IsraelThere are no closets and no hanging places to put clothes. Very uncomfortable if you are there for more than couple of days.
The design of the room is very beautiful, just like in the pictures. There is a separate privet entrance, which is convenient. There is a kitchenette and a shower. We did not meet the owner, but communication with him, via Booking's mailbox, was good and he responded quickly to any request. The location is very convenient, close to public transportation. Very suitable for a one-night stay. Much less convenient for a longer stay because there are no wardrobe to store clothes in or a place to hang them.
