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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

AustraliaVery spacious apartment, freshly and tastefully renovated. Very comfortable mattress but oddly, no top sheet, only a doona on top. Check in/out was easy and convenient with clear, timely communication. The expansive front windows provide a lovely sea view but make the room very light all night, even with the blinds down, due to outside lights and morning sun. You have to have the blinds down also for privacy as the room is on a busy street corner. Parking was not ideal. Overall I appreciated the decor, cleanliness, space and comfy bed but unfortunately didn’t sleep well because of the windows/light.

AustraliaAbout my only complaint was I found the 'lounge' chairs uncomfortable. Car parking could have been better.
I loved the area the property was in and the close proximity to the town within being in the hustle and bustle of the town. The room was cosy but had everything I needed.

AustraliaThere is a train line that runs close to the apartments and the warning bells are fairly noisy but it's only once or twice a day and sometimes at around midnight - not a major issue.
We rented apartments 1 & 2 for three nights in December 2024. Both apartments are stylish, well-equipped and have heat pumps/air-con and very comfortable electrically adjustable beds. Apartment 1 has an accessible shower and toilet. Large non-opening glass windows give lovely views of the Bass Straight. Anna is a lovely host who is quick to respond and very helpful.

AustraliaCloseness to a complicated road intersection. But, saying that, I thought repurposing an old shop was brilliant and done well. No windows that opened were understandable, but the room gets stuffy with the sun beating in on full windows. Air conditioning helps. Two keys would have been more handy.
The view, location to beach. Appreciated the double glazed windows that kept traffic noise to a minimum. Binoculars were a great idea to watch boats and ferries sail by.

New ZealandThere no reception. Contact is via email/text. Wasn't clear where parking was at start - looked like belonged to adjacent 'business' - no signage. Noticed during stay previous occupier of room had covered smoke alarm with plastic - couldn't get hold property owner that night to check if we should remove or there for a reason. Owner subsequently contacted us and was very apologetic and going to sort. Happy with their response to issue and confident they will be very proactive in checking this in the future.
Great room, modern and clean. Would stay there again.
