Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

AustraliaThe bathroom was dirty & very mouldy. The toilet brush was horrifically dirty. The back door continually slammed loudly as people left all hours of the night & early morning. There was no one at reception from 4pm causing quite a bit of confusion from new guests on arrival.

AustraliaThe place could do with a little love; the carpets looked worn out and even dirty in certain places (ie staircase). The room also smelt a little stuffy when we entered, so perhaps a little more airing out before guests arrive. Being there briefly, it was a passable experience. There didn’t seem to be enough parking for the guests, as I had to park elsewhere, it was close by, yet may be problematic for some. Close to a busy road, so perhaps come prepared with earplugs.
The view was great, and location was too to access Salamanca Market, Hobart CBD, and even the Eastern Shore (only minutes from Eastlands, where my friends and I went to see a movie). It offered what we needed, which was a room to sleep in for the night and to have access to a bathroom and shower. Basic amenities such as mini fridge, hairdryer, kettle was appreciated. Friendly staff.

AustraliaThe room & floors was extremely dusty & dirty in places. Was lacking basic comforts like towel hooks or shelves in the bathroom, there was only a small rail above the toilet. There’s no toaster or cutlery in the rooms but that is stated in the Q&As if you look. There is no air conditioning or ceiling fans but there is a small floor heater & fan, i think the rooms would be freezing in the winter months & quiet stuffy in summer.
The bed & pillows were comfortable. The location was good.

AustraliaRoom could have more lighting especially as the one that I occupied was on the “wrong” side, with a view of the next-door apartments and not on the “mountain view” side. New carpet - or none at all - would be more appropriate for the stairs leading to the rooms.
Very good location close to restaurants in both Battery Point and Sandy Bay. Parking available on site or bus stop available near the property’s front entrance. Good bottle shop also near by. Comfortable room for one or two. Understanding and helpful staff. All in all good value.
