Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaThere was absolutely not a single thing to not like about this place or our hosts! Everything was exceptional!!!
We have never stayed in such a clean and well appointed place!! Everything was provided for... food for breakfast, fruit, robes, slippers...we even got a vase of fresh flowers! All the items for breakfast were of top local quality... and so very, very nice!!! You can hear the little river from the back deck while you sit in very comfortable deck chairs.... there is bird life all around you in the rain forest, which is just meters away. Very tranquil!

IrelandNothing - this was one of the best accommodations I have booked in Australia. Wish we could have stayed longer!
We had a fantastic stay at Sharlynn by the River as a group of 3 friends. This property definitely exceeded our expectations. Thanks to John and Pam for being very accommodating, we really enjoyed the morning coffee and breakfast. The cabin is very comfortable and the decking around it is beautiful. Sadly, did not see any tree kangaroos, we loved out stay by the river. A great base to explore the Atherton tablelands and chill out.

AustraliaWe loved how relaxing, comfortable and private this stay was. The attention to detail for every need, plus extras that made our stay magical. The breakfast food supplied was through their farm and local produce which added that extra touch. The sound and sights of the rainforest and river, the decking, private veranda and viewing deck. The fireplace and also the spa bath... The robes and complimentary port before bed. The owners are very passionate about their property and hosting. The dog (Charlie) is so adorable.

Excellent home away from home!! with very cosy, warm, and private surroundings. Pam & John really take care and welcome their guests really well (with only one guest group taken up at any time). The cabin was located in a natural private rain forest resort with river and birds chorus in the background. The cabin was very well equipped with top rated fittings and appliances and loaded with all the goodies from local organic fruits and dairy supply. We, as a family of three adults, ended up spending more time relaxing in the accommodating than touring. It was the highlight of our five days trip.

United Kingdom'Wow' is the only word to describe 'Sharlynn'! We spent two wonderful nights here and wished we could have stayed longer. A place to chill, relax and simply enjoy the surroundings - rain forest outside the door; Johnson River at the bottom of the slope; massive, comfortably furnished terrace'/verandah with BBQ overlooking the rain forest. And the accommodation - spacious, incredibly well equipped kitchen, comfortable longe area, very comfortable bed and huge, well equipped bathroom. And enough food for two, large gourmet breakfasts with plenty of choice (and there will still be some left over). You make breakfast yourself, but that's all part of the experience. Absolutely loved it!
