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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

AustraliaThat the beds were more comfortable than my own at home. All jokes aside, we cannot fault this apartment.
We booked needing a one night stay in Newcastle after deciding to take a spontaneous weekend trip. The apartment was extremely clean, modern and proudly presented. Location is sublime, being minutes walk from some of the most amazing beaches, cafes and restaurants in Newcastle. No thought has been spared by the owner, Cal; not to mention, comfortable and fresh linen and towels. Our tribe will be back and next time, for longer.

AustraliaThe location was perfect, clean, spacious for a two bedroom unit, comfortable and stylish. It was everything that was advertised and more!!! So close to the beach and restaurants at Mereweather. The little touches made it a joy to stay here. The reading room was an amazing space to unwind with the ocean breeze, making it relaxing. Definitely recommend.

AustraliaWe visited during a heatwave and while the ceiling fans were good, some aircon would have been nice.
A super clean, very stylish and brilliantly located apartment, generously equipped with essentials such as coffee pods, tea, cooking oil. It's just across the road from one of Newcastle's main beaches.

AustraliaEntrance to building was a bit off putting - shabby carpet, however once in the flat it was perfect. The bedding arrangments in the lounge room took a bit of working out - would be perfect for children. In the end we had one adult on a mattress on the floor and the other on the couch. I would think twice about staying in peak summer without airconditioning.
Location was great - a short walk to the beach and a short drive to everwhere else. The apartment was recently renovated, beautifully styled and stocked with everything you could think of - condiments in the kitchen, sunscreen, beach towels, coffee machine, toiletries. Only one bathroom but well organised and worked perfectly for 6 of us. Beautifully decorated with interesting nick nacks and large real plants. 2 bedrooms for couples and a separate lounge room with a couch and some fold out chairs and mattressses. And a proper separate dining room, which was great for a group of 6. Fans in the bedroom were great and if you opened the windows you got a nice cross breeze. I would stay there again.

It was excellent. The detail that our host Cal has gone to make this a very special place to stay is fantastic. Very thoughtful host, even leaving beach towels and a small carry esky was very thoughtful. If we could give more than a 10 rating we would! Can’t wait to rebook, thank you Cal.

AustraliaBooked in a hurry enroute driving down from Brisbane, so not much time to research, and really just looking for a bed for the night. Arrived inthe dark and rain. Building initially seemed a little old and wasnt sure what to expect. Up one flightof stairs. Imagine our surprise on entering our apartment, a beautifully and thoughtfully renovated, roomy apartment. Just lovely and would have loved to spend more time there if we werent on the road again early next morning. Lots of nice touches, even fresh milk in the fridge, almost unheard of nowadays.
