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...).

New ZealandThe heatpump in the room hardly worked. It was a wet and cold 2 degree night. The lady at reception did bring me an oil heater where only the low setting would work. I ended up stripping the second bed bedding and putting it on mine as i was so cold. The room also had a undesirable smell
The Staff member who checked me in and tried to assist me with the heating problem was lovely

New ZealandWe received an excellent service from the staff. We asked if we can access SKY TV, then we were moved to the next room as the room we were in had an issue with the sky. We asked for an extra matress, the owner gave us a very comfortable mattress. Such a great place to be!

New ZealandThe shower - there is no curtain but an open plan shower with toilet.basin in the same room. The shower water splashed thru out the room and hence access back to the room needed bare feet or shoes as socks would get soaked. The floor also became slippery and dangerous and stayed so for most of the stay. The kitchen had no frying pan so when it came to breakfast we were unable to cook our bacon and eggs we brought with us. There was no mention of this in the advert or in the information booklet in the room that a pan would not be supplied!!! The air con heat ,although works ,it takes an hour to warm the room up. It does say this in the information booklet but I suggest upgraded units!! Even though there are blinds light still enters the room - partly due to poorly fit curtains/blinds - and is difficult to get to sleep. The other problem is the outside lights stay on all night - Yes security is important but maybe it should be simply movement sensitive so the majority of the time the light is off. Maybe the owners should sleep in these rooms and suss out what clients experience!! cheers and hope the owner takes some note of these issues

New ZealandNo heated towel rail, no shelf in the shower. Water from shower and spa bath difficult to clean up. And caused dangerous slippery floor. No coat hooks by the door. Walls needed some art - a nice big space could have felt so much nicer.

New ZealandThe shower (tiles are grout) were really dirty. Brown gunge and pink mould. Needed a decent exit mould spray and scrub. Pillows were pretty average and the room had condensation dripping from the doors despite heat pump being on all night.

New ZealandThere must have been a change in management as I had stayed here a few times prior. Things look run down and the rooms are tired. I was located in a ground floor disabled unit and the bathroom was cruddy, cleanliness not great as tiles on walls and floors not scrubbed, the shower had no curtain so water goes everywhere. The shower itself was in need of repair.
The location is great being close to town, it’s next door to the local BP petrol station which is convenient.

New ZealandThere was an adult sports team group staying across multiple rooms at the same time and they were extremely loud, socialising around the shared passageways until past midnight both nights we stayed. The manager was aware and didn’t do anything about it, which has frustrating as the number 1 thing we needed from the booking was a place to SLEEP.
Nice, light and bright room with comfortable double bed + a single bed. Big bathroom, Netflix and cooking facilities.
