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...).

AustraliaThe bed mattress was cheap and hard. The shower was in the bath which makes it unpleasant to have a shower. I don't think anyone uses a bath these days. The street parking was $15/day whilst the hotel charged $25/day.
The room was quiet. Plenty of space.

AustraliaState of our suite, cracked Kitchen Bench, torn carpet, water damaged and swollen vanity door, dirty grouting around bath, shower head that will only spray water over side of bath if you leave it up on its hook. The whole place needs a coat of paint and to be brought up to standard. Not the accommodation we remember, about a 2 Star Motel overall.
Located in great area and staff friendly and helpful.

AustraliaFurniture and fitout in this apartment was very basic. The kitchen bench top had numerous open cracks, can’t think this could be hygienic.The tv in the bedroom was Netflix compatible but the one in the living area was not ?. This room could do with an upgrade and was certainly not worth the $455 per night.
Friendly staff and great location. There were also a good selection of cafe’s and restaurants within walking distance.

AustraliaMy flight got cancelled last minute by the airline yet the hotel insisted on charging me for 2 nights even though I only stayed the 1 night. Hotel manager was totally unaccommodating. Hotel rooms starting to look dated and tired. The WIFI didn't work at all during my stay. Unlikely to stay at a Quest again.

AustraliaTerrible service. On Sat 5/11/22 we arrived after 11pm to check in and called the night manager, as instructed by staff earlier that day. I was met by a female staffer who was checking us in and when payment was required via card, the mobile EFTPOS machine was not working. The tap function would not register two different (valid, functional and funded) Mastercards, nor ApplePay via my phone or GooglePay via my husbands phone, nor with insert for two cards. Clearly, it was the machine and not our cards (which had been successfully used earlier that day). I have a screenshot of my bank balance on the night being more than sufficient. The staffer rang her manager to troubleshoot but kept saying they required upfront payment for checkin. I suggested to reset the machine, which she did not know how to do. I suggested a bank transfer, she did not know if it was available. She did not suggest a manual card transaction and said our final option was cash (it was midnight by this point). She did not know of any ATM nearby. We left to find three nearby on Maps, all of which were either closed or temporarily unavailable, so we rang her back to say we weren’t having any luck and could we please sort it out first thing in the morning. I was pregnant and exhausted. I offered for her to hold my card overnight which she declined. Again she called her manager who refused to check us in without prepayment, so we left, with no hotel at midnight on a Saturday and no apology. It was just awful. We will never stay at quest again.
Didn’t get to stay here.

AustraliaWhen we checked into this apartment they automatically took out the bond money when it is supposed to be “holding”, when we questioned it to reception the said the bank would refund the money if there was no damage (already suspicious?) we then checked in and the apartment floor had noticeable stains, which we should have taken a photo of but we assumed the hotel would have clearly known their floor was stained prior as cleaners constantly go in. The next day after we checked out we got a call they were trying to accuse us saying we made the red stain… when we clearly didn’t! we told them no one was drinking any red wine that night and the stain was there prior. They said they were going to check the alcohol bottles to see, we told them to go for it as there are no red alcohol bottles. We reassured them we didn’t do it and the staff at reception said well the cleaners would have known if it was already there. He said if they couldn’t get it out he would call back. We then got a call back saying that they were incorrect after investigating and that the stain was already there!! which we clearly stated it was and they didn’t believe us initially. It was a set up from the start when they took the bond money from the beginning, they intended on keeping it, they are trying to steal your money purposely saying you are leaving stains that they have left there themselves. Very disappointing as we actually did have a good stay there until that call came through. Your reception team should have “investigated” prior to making the call. A call was made back during the week as the bond money had not been received back and the reception staff member said they had contacted the bank to “release the funds”. When we rang the bank straight after they said there was no record of Quest contacting them. We won’t be staying there again nor recommending them. 👎🏼
