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.).

AustraliaNothing I didnt like. When we first arrived in the dark we werent quite sure what to do but soon worked it out.
Access to the beach and coffee shops with outstanding coffee was one of the best features. Bed and pillows were one of the best part. Bathroom was also really nice and modern and super clean.

New ZealandOur check out was a bit unpleasant as the host knocked on our door at 0952h to rush our checkout at 1000h. We were a little late checking out at 1006h however didn't really think it was necessary and made us feel less positively about our stay which had been otherwise perfect.
Fantastic location, minutes walk from Kohimarama beach. Easy check in. Lovely room with kitchenette and large bathroom. Quiet and private.

New ZealandThe outside sensor lighting could be a improved for access to the upstairs unit at night. Just a microwave in the kitchen, but hey, there's no shortage of restaurants down the road.
An immaculate and modern apartment with a nice view of the harbour. Late arrival was fine and the host was very kind and helpful. The off-street parking was a definite bonus and was the main reason we chose this property over hotels in the area.

Of course! Here we are running way behind schedule, (nothing new there unfortunately) Two hours after the arranged check in time (5pm)... A nice friendly phone call from our host Kohi B&B. I Informed him that we would arrive very very shortly! And please to wait for us. Another two hours later... Finally arriving dead of night our welcoming host still greeted us with a smile and gave us the guided tour of our cosy little nest for the night. Thanks Kohi Beach B&B! And sorry again!!

New ZealandI initially entered a late check in time when booking (2300-2400) as we had a gig to play at and was asked to come in earlier. I came earlier to meet the owner, discuss payment, introduce myself, receive the keys and have a brief look around before heading out again (briefing took less than 5 mins). Upon return to the accomodation later in the night, the street was dark and I got a bit lost looking for the property. I had passed the house twice and I was approached by the owner stating that I shouldn't be lurking around the house at that hour, that they were a private property, that it was late in the night and was rudely accused of coming to the house to party and do drugs!!! I am 35 years old and I did not appreciate this at all.. If it was not for my partner to calm me down i would have left that night.
very very cosy and clean space. area was very nice and quiet. perfect location.

AustraliaThe photograph doesn't show the correct configuration of the accommodation. I booked it as I thought the bedroom was separated from the lounge where I had requested the sofa bed be made up for my brother. But we found it was just one big open space with no privacy other than the bathroom. Nothing Iike the photo. There was also no sink other than the bathroom sink for washing plates, etc. WiFi password was provided, however it did not work.
The beds were comfortable, good bathroom and clean. The fridge, toaster, kettle and microwave were clean and in good working order. We requested an iron and extra hangers which were provided immediately.
