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 ZealandFirstly, when I arrived at about 10pm, the night person waiting didn't look too desirable. In the morning when I went to get my suitcase that had been left in Sydney and delivered early hours of the morning the cleaner had to wake the gentleman to get key to office, he was very grumpy. The room was terrible, skirting boards missing, no cups or teaspoons to have coffee although kettle in place. The bottom pane of the one window had no pane but a mesh guard, so was open, so you could hear the air conditioners going on and off. There were bad patches where there had been holes. The door lining in inside was all coming apart and in bad repair. To be honest, I did not feel at ease at all. I also thought the room rate was over the top. The so called air con made terrible noise when turned on - just as well I didn't need it.
At least the bed was comfortable and sheets clean.

AustraliaThe chair was pretty bad. The TV did not work and there was no Remote for the TV. The warning for how to use the shower was making me cautious about how to use the shower so I don't have to pay a hefty fine for such a small uninteresting room.
The Internet was good. The City Location is pretty good. The city views outside the motel were good and in walking distance to mostly everything.

AustraliaOur room wasn't ready when we arrived at 4pm to check in. They at least stored our bags until we came back and checking in at 7pm. The bed was fine and clean, but everything else in the room was not. The TV didn't work... even after the maintenance person came and refitted the aerial. The remote control for the air conditioner didn't work and I had to climb up on the sofa etc to be able to reach the power point to turn it on off and on. One pillow was so thin and flat you had to double it over to get any padding, the other was okay. There were no spare pillows and no spare blankets (it was cold in the room as the air conditioner was running on 16 degrees until I turned off). The room and bathroom was generally dirty, and the shower dripped until the maintenance man came. We won't be returning to this hotel.
This hotel is well located for a business trip to Brisbane CBD. The duty staff were helpful and responsive when asked to store our bags before and after we checked in and out. Wi-fi was good.

AustraliaStaff were slow to respond, slow to arrive in the morning, slow to get the room ready for check-in. Cleaner had a kid running around in the corridor screaming his head off. Room had a dirty carpet and bathroom despite being 'cleaned' moments before I went in, toilet took 3 goes to flush everything away every time, fridge was filthy, found a bug in the room, there was a weird smell like it was musky, condition of the room was terrible and bed was just 2 single beds moved together creating a terrible painful point down the middle.
Location - that's the only thing going for it. Very close to Central station and very close to everything in the CBD and Southbank.

Australia$124 seems expensive for a window that faces a pit (you can't tell if it's day or night) an air-conditioning unit too filthy to turn on, water damaged rotting walls, a TV with a remote held together with packing tape and someone randomly screaming from a unit down the hall.
For a travelling backpacker who doesn't mind Spartan sleeping quarters (and possibly homeless drug addicted eccentrics living in the same building) Turbot house has pretty much what you'd expect for what you pay for.
