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.).

AustraliaRooms were clean and comfortable, but a little outdated. The owners have just taken over and have plans to renovate the rooms in the near future, so I look forward to a return stay to see what they will have done with the property
The location overlooking American River is lovely. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming and the food cooked by Owner/Chef Nicholas is amazing. Even provided a breakfast pack for me to have in my room as I had an early morning departure.

AustraliaParking. Steepness and steps. Hubby had recently had 2 knee replacements so found this a bit of a struggle.
Breakfast was a memorable experience, it gave our little trip such added enjoyment each morning with homemade delights, and hosts who were the best I've experienced. Friendly, personal and accommodating!! Thank you!

NorwayNothing, the place is simpy excellent.
The place and hosts are AMAZING. True professionals of hospitality: very warm and kind people, everything they prepared was first-class or better. The place is clean and cozy, place in a nice location between Kingscote and Pennshaw (American River). There are koalas walking around! They managed to heat the room very creatively by inserting heating lights in the bathroom. There is a view of the ocean from the window, the room is very well equipped, and they even put umbrellas in the closet. The breakfast was outstanding: delicious, and the hosts did their best to listen to us and satisfy are - demanding! - requests. They were very helpful and suggested nice trips which we indeed did and were very satisfied with.

AustraliaWe were very happy - we have stayed in all levels of accommodation & cleanliness is paramount for us - this property is an older establishment so the rooms although clean are a little bit dated - look passed that & with busy days exploring the Island you will be comfortable. The new owners are gradually working on plans to give the property a new lease of life & have the right attitude towards their customers.
The owners of this property went over & above to make sure our stay was comfortable - we were very happy with everything - we ate our evening meal there at the restaurant for the three nights of our stay - Nicolas a qualified Chef makes delicious food including the home made breads for breakfast - coffee is great & comes with a delicious biscotti - The owners have recently acquired the business & have great plans for freshening up an older style property.

AustraliaThe staff here are lovely my friend and I had a really nice stay here. On the first morning I asked for an alternative milk with my coffee that they did not have and the next day they had purchased it for me (this was in June so not a busy time where others might want it). The rooms are also lovely with spectacular views.

AustraliaIf I had to choose 1 thing, I’d say the bathroom door handle in our room was difficult to turn.
Loved it here. Easy accessible power points on both sides of the comfortable king bed. Warm toasty heater, even had towel warmer in bathroom. Extension lead in cupboard if needed. Very nice staff. The complimentary continental breakfast looked amazing. Absolute valley for money. 10/10
