How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewNicely located. Quite central.
Whole place in need of a spruce-up. Room needs an upgrade - cracked & dirty windows, drapes were grubby. Pool was cloudy & needed to be cleaned. Get the feeling the motel is/was used for social/emergency housing.

Verified reviewGreat location, only a 20 minute walk to all major attractions, Riverside Markets, Victoria Square and Hagley Park. The manager was so nice and he was super helpful. He gave us suggestions of things to do and was really apologetic for the state of the rooms.
The room was filthy, stains on the sofas, carpet and walls. It seriously needed a paint job, looked as though it was being used as emergency housing when it was not booked online. The pool is missing a lot of tiles and needs some help. Luckily our kids did not care, however as an adult I wouldn't go in it. The manager assured us that they were aware of the need to fix the issues going to upgrade and that it was clean but it was pretty cloudy....
Thank you for your feedback and positive comments about me the manager. It looked like your children enjoyed the pool. Sorry about the rooms, they do need an upgrade which I hope will happen soon. I hope you enjoyed your activities around Christchurch.

Verified reviewI was given an "upgrade" not the room I wanted. The beds were not completely made, pillows had no pillow cases, teatowels etc were throwen on bed-not folded. Outside the bedroom windows you have a awful sight of a brick wall, stones and rubbish. This hotel is used as emergency housing also I was not notified of this. People were arguing all night I could hear whilst trying to sleep. Kitchen was mismatched cups etc.
This review is a little confusing. We always put pillow cases on, if we hadn't it was an oversight and you could of advised us. The towels were on the towel rail in the bathroom, I don't know of any tea towels on the beds. I know it's not a nice view out the bedroom window, we are thinking of ways we could improve it. the cups etc in the kitchen are very similar. Yes we do have emergency housing, only 2 rooms, I'm sorry if they were arguing, it can happen with any guests. If there are issues during your stay please raise them with us, that's what we are here for. You did come to the office a couple of times. You will be please to know we got rid of the burning pop corn smell.

Verified reviewThe owner was accommodating, put us in a larger room and responded to queries promptly. Good location, close to tournament we were attending, supermarkets etc. Had a nice big washing machine.
Not very clean at all. I spent the 1st hr washing all the dishes and wiping cupboards and surfaces. Floors don't look like they've been mopped in months. Cobwebs. I made my son get out of the pool unsure if that was clean either. Plus, pretty sure it was social housing which really should be advised.
Thank for your review. I don't know why you thought the room was dirty, the floors are mopped after each check out, I couldn't see any cob webs. The pool has lost a lot of it's paint but the fact that you can clearly see the bottom indicates the water must be clean. It is tested. Our cleaners are very thorough and I saw them wiping out the cupboards. we have 1 person staying for social housing.

Thank you for your review. There is a mirror in the bedroom. It's behind the door so if it's open you may not see it. We hope that you enjoyed your stay.
