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...).

AustraliaApartment at the back was good, although would have preferred ground floor as it was cumbersome to carry all the luggage up the stairs from the garage without a lift. No heating in bedrooms so was a little cold. Would have liked a water station near sauna.
Sauna, spa, pool area was terrific. Two bedroom apartment spacious and well appointed.

AustraliaThe beige carpet looked quite dirty right at the edges where it touches the walls and a normal vacuum cleaner cannot reach (actually it was nearly black). That should be rectified. Another minor critic point would be that I would like the towels changed once in a while. I believe the current policy is only doing house service for stays of 8 nights or longer. (To be fair to the hotel, they probably would have changed them if I had called reception and asked for it).
The apartment was very spacious, the kitchen was reasonable equipped with a large fridge with freezer, microwave, stove and oven, there was even a Nespresso machine. There was a washing machine and clothes dryer. The apartment looked clean and did not smell in any way (I have seen reviews in that respect).

AustraliaAt check-in we were greeted by a lady who gave the impression she didn't want to be there. She was very friendly to the younger couple before us but very stand offish to us. She did not welcome us or offer any information, as she had done to the other couple. In the process of checking in she also failed to activate our access cards for 4 days - meaning that the next day we have no lift or room access and had to go to reception to have this rectified. Being on the top floor meant needing to use the lift to get to street level...unfortunately timing is everything, so when the cleaners are doing their job of cleaning the lift the only way down is via the stairs. We found that access to every other level was locked and did have a mild panic that the ground floor access may also be locked. Thankfully it wasn't but it would be helpful if there were signs advising this. We had a large group of holidaying school students in the apartment next to ours, with a lot of noise coming into our apartment as they entered and left their apartment and one night of party noise. We did make enquiries about changing apartments but were told that it would be at an additional cost as there was only a 2 bedroom apartment available. It was a pity that there was not some consideration for our comfort in regard to this issue. While the rules do state no noise after 10:30 pm , having loud people outside your door at 9:00 pm is an intrusion.
Staying in a one bedroom apartment was like a home away from home. With a separate large bedroom and lounge and dinning areas, as well as a full size laundry and a small but full kitchen, there was plenty to love about this accommodation. Even thought the room did not face the ocean, being in the sixth floor, there were ocean views from the rear balcony. The kitchen had a full size fridge and microwave as well as a large oven and 2 hotplates. A small dishwasher made cleaning up easy. Everything we needed was supplied, from dishing washing to laundry powder and beautiful shower products. A feeling of the perfect escape. While sitting up on the hill, it is only a short coastal walk to town and also has the Port Bowls Club across the road, with a variety of dinning options on offer. Convenient easy free undercover parking was also a bonus.

AustraliaThere was a water stain and mould in my room. Upon notifying the hotel of the problem I was immediately moved and upgraded to a much better room. I was impressed by this!
Lovely room with view of the ocean. Upgraded to a much bigger room when there was a problem with my original room.
