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...).

New ZealandAnts on ALL of the ki9tchen benchtops. stains (tomato? ) on the top of the duvet cover, no liner on the stained mattress (and VERY thin sheets) dirty sink, dusty water stains on bathroom windows, old dust on all skirting-boards , taps not cleaned, black, fleece rugs over communal couches made them very uninviting (concealing more dirt??) My bare feet got sticky from all the attached dust, I had to change the bedding and I cleaned the bathroom sink, taps, part of the windows and counter tops. Lots of mold on the curtains; Ugh! The bed was a very basic, folding , squeaky "camp" bed with a ridge half way down it. :-(

AustraliaWas horrible, do not stay here, it was dirty, there is mould in the bathroom, floor were dirty, there were pubes in the toilet, everything was dirty, was actually disgusting. The price is not worth the money. I know it’s a keep stay, but they still need to keep it clean Bed was horrible, the towels and bed sheet (only fitted sheet) were see through and the pillows were dirty and smelled

AustraliaThe unit had been broken into and couldn't be locked . There was no mattress just a bed base so we had to "sleep" on just a bed of springs. We got no sleep because of this and got up with such sore backs we went and got a back massage each the next day. The toilet seat was broken and the towels were covered in bleach. I am seeking a full refund.
Not much at all, maybe the sheets actually smelt clean.

AustraliaI started staying there on 18/8/24 Sunday. On 22 Thursday morning, the glass door of the shower room fall down and I got injured on my both hands. My husband called the host and informed her about the incident. She said she will sent someone to check it. According to her someone came on next day, that is Friday, but did nothing. My husband again called the host and she was trying to put the blame on me as she said the door will not fall on its own. In my point of view, the door was not perfect and there was something wrong with it since I’m staying there. On Saturday, I called customer care service and they talk with the host. She told the customer care team that she cleaned the bathroom and there is no glasses in the bathroom. Actually she didn’t do it and I sent photo proof to customer service. Later, I was offered with one day extra stay for free as a compensation. I refused it and then I got refund of one days payment which is $117. I vacated the room on 29th Thursday, still all the broken glasses are there in the bathroom. All together, it was a horrible experience I ever had.

AustraliaJust some feedback: I noticed there was no ash trays for smokers In the morning I was woken up by the neighbours who were angry and sprayed water on your property in retaliation to previous guests who were smoker's. The smoker's apparently flicked their cigarettes onto their yard and the neighbours blamed me Cos they saw me. I recommend some sort of smoker's bin in case people don't k ow where to dispose of it. Kind regards

Australia-The bed is terrible, the top middle is caved in and we had to put a bunched up spare blanket along the middle just to keep us from sliding into the middle. It was also extremely creaky. Needless to say it was a very uncomfortable sleep. -Our keys were not in the lockbox at the front door when we arrived, even though I had been told they were. Had to call up, and turned out the lady was in the house and had the keys on her. -The ad says "private check in" but this is kind of misleading. As aforementioned, the ladies were actually just right there in the house, and on top of that, you enter the house and walk straight into the lounge/kitchen communal area. You can't possibly privately enter if other people staying there are in the common area or if the owners are right there.
Bathroom is nice, big shower and big bath.
