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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

MalaysiaThe reception man was so friendly and helpful. At the early morning which was a bit cold, I called him to find a solution and he quickly drop in with extra heater and more quilts.
The location was fine. It was just 20 minutes by bus to the CBD.

AustraliaNo glass for drinking Warm bedding
No breakfast offered. Good parking Motel isn't close to restaurants or shops Nearest shops at least 10 minutes by car but walking would be very difficult Motel is having building upgrade. My room wasn't readily available but I was given an upgrade which was very nice The motel is on a very busy road and can only be accessed from one way so if driving it is difficult to get back to it. Bedding was clean but did not have a blanket or doona just a sheet and very lightweight cover so had to rely on reverse cycle heating to provide comfort. I found this very unusual as it is winter

AustraliaTiled floor hadn't been cleaned in a while. Bathroom was filth! Black mould needs to be treated on the ceiling and in the shower recess. I imagine the La Niña "big wet" weather this year has been no friend in that department. Admittedly, I opted not to shower. (Handbasin wash was fine with me.) Stairwells and landings need a good vacuum! Even on a budget spend, the cleanliness was really the only letdown, though I understand that they struggled to keep staff during COVID times.
Proprietor was very friendly - provided a room away from Parramatta Rd with leafy outlook. Staff, including contractors, are polite and friendly too. All the BASIC essentials were there: comfy bed was great, heater and telly worked, hot water didn't take too long to run in the bathroom. Nice fresh clean linen, spare blankets - good for chilly weather - and bathroom basics included dental kit and shaving kit, bit more than the avg motel. Decent loo paper (why doesn't anyone ever report this? haha) Gated security is excellent, for pedestrian access as well. A plus-plus for this site. SUPERB LOCATION - between Summer Hill and Haberfield yummo restaurants and shops. Noone can beat their "value for $$" in this regard - so didn't expect much else on the room other than the basics for this last minute price. NOTE: STAIRS ONLY up to 3rd floor. (Something to consider.) Multiple trips for parents with kids when unpacking. Really only 1 staircase if you're game to squeeze into a park on the middle level. Free parking is better for tiny cars, not so much AWDs and modern wide-bodied, impractical, truck size family vehicles which didn't exist back when the motel was built! Parking in the side streets overnight will do as an alternative if you can find it. Safe area. Two parking bays available on arrival when you get off busy, busy Parra Rd to check-in. Most city drivers are aware of this motel so are surprisingly patient (for Sydney) when you need to pull off into the driveway. (Look for the big "24hr" neon on approach.) Didn't end up using WiFi so can't comment on that. Late check-in/out is probably the best for this area. If you're a long distance traveller, it turned out to be handy for me because of the friendly tyre business next door!
