Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Bathroom being attached to one of the bedrooms was a little awkward. The stairs are very narrow and we couldn’t find a light from the bottom of the stairs to light up the stairs, only from the top. The outside door was tough to open, didn’t want to break it but you needed force to get it open.
The location was great, super close to Main Street and cafes and shops etc

Creaking floorboards and a few patches of peeling paint but possibly expected considering the age of the building. A little noisy in the mornings from the laneway below.
Very central and close to numerous cafes. Coffee pods and welcome nibbles were much appreciated.

The property should probably describe the place a bit better so that expectations are met. There is only one bathroom, and it is an ensuite in one of the rooms, so if you were 2 x couples, you have to walk past a sleeping (or otherwise lol) couple in the middle of the night to use the bathroom.
We really love The Loft. The location, in particular. It had a retro feel and decor.

The property is in average condition with areas of the floor feeling like going to fall through. Holes in walls, water stains on roof, spiderwebs. The stairs are very steep so not suitable for someone not confident climbing. Property just needs a really good clean up eg paint/repairs. Fans in bedrooms that don't really do a lot. An aircon in lounge area that worked ok. Noise from eateries at back of property and music fri/sat nights wasn't too bad, but I had ear plugs.
Amazing location

The cafe immediately behind the main bedroom started blasting music from 7am which wasn't ideal post getting in late the night before. The place has zero cooking facilities and is super noisy as anyone walks around it. The loft had heating pumping all weekend, but certian windows are stuck open and let all the cold air in. Large amount of noise transference from the main street below. There was a random open milk bottle in the fridge, and evidence the place hadn't been properly cleaned since the last guests. As others have mentioned, the whole bathroom only being accessible by the one room was a lot. While initially when reading the info it seemed as though it'd be fine, it doesn't factor in how different parties feel about being overhead/hearing others use the bathroom. Also a super odd lock on the second bedroom
Was the only local accommodation for the last min trip we booked.
