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.).

Australia-Pretty much motel-level accommodations at three-star prices. -Beds unsecured and kept rolling around everywhere. -Lift broken, obliging is to use shabby fire escape (why not run a broom through there once a month?) -Grubby pigeon nest outside window.
-Friendly staff -Good location -Decent breakfast

AustraliaThe room upstairs in 309 was not good. The wheels of the bed were moving the no breaks. That lead to an injury to my mums face as she fell from the bed. However the staff were very helpful.

AustraliaThere was a lot of street noise, there is no on-site parking and the "kitchen" as described was lacking any sort of cooking appliances. The restaurant was closed which we had no prior warning about, the rooms are slanted making the beds tilt. We still had a great time in Cairns but this hotel needs some work.
Close to the city and reasonably priced. Staff were polite and helpful.

AustraliaThe toilet was broken in our room. When we arrived the lid was off the cistern of the toilet and on the floor next to it. We put the lid back on but the water tap to the toilet was off and when we would turn it on full , water would shoot everywhere so we’d have to only turn the tap on a little bit to allow the cistern to fill. Also the towels smelt like they had been there for ages (musty smelling).

First room they gave me the card reader to get into the room didn't work go back to reception, they give me another room, I walk in it hasn't been cleaned from previous guests, go back to reception, they tell me I have to wait while the fix the batteries in the card reader on the door of the original room. Go to make a cup of tea, all the milk is off and lumpy. Go to breakfast, and order. Waitress isn't sure what's included or whether breakfast is included in my room runs off to ask someone else. Breakfast of eggs bennie was burnt and over cooked. The whole place is by work experience kids

AustraliaWe arrived expecting there to be a car park but there were just two spots out the front, the lift broke down on our first day and we were located on the third floor and had to walk up and down the stairs numerous times during the day. We ate in the restaurant on the first night and the food was very poor, none of us finished our meals. Tried to have one of our keys recut during our stay as it had stopped and the staff could not get the program to work to recut the key at all, would have been terrible if neither of our keys were working. Our air conditioner in one room leaked on our second night and I had some bags on the floor which became soaking wet and items in them were ruined. The air conditioner in the other room hardly cooled at all. I feel the hotel lacked with helpfulness from staff, I watched numerous older people having to carry heavy bags up and down the stairs without any offer of assistance.
The location being next to CPAC was convenient for us as my daughter was performing at a dance concert. My son really enjoyed the pool. The bar staff member was friendly which was on each night we were there.
