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.).

New ZealandThe shower cubicle was really small and made it hard to get in and out of it. But other than that, everything was very good.
I liked how close it was to where we needed to be - attending a close relative's funeral held at the funeral home next door. We also liked how close it was to a shopping centre (Northcote shopping center) and also other facilities. Great location and loved how it had its own allocated parking space for our car.

AustraliaOver all great stay..
The only issue was no sink in the room, you assume when hiring a studio that there will be kitchen facilities like a sink for washing dishes. The staff however were very accommodating and directed me to a wash house that had big laundry sinks. So not horrendous, over all the staff were great and made up for any inconveneince with their hospitality. Great location, bed was a bit hard but for the price what can you expect. And the price was very good.. Good Shower...

New ZealandWe were in an upstairs unit and parking for room was a distance only because of the rain and carrying suitcases up in wet weather. Floors slightly buckled in our room but didn’t affect the stay just door didn’t close properly to bathroom.
Our second time staying here. The Location to the event we were attending was great. Beds were comfortable, staff are friendly and accomodating. Would stay again but prefer lower level units.

New ZealandThe shower was quite small. It looks like it used to be bigger, but they've put in a smaller one. They'd be better off making it more comfortable. We could have had more pillows. Most places generally give 2 per person. There was one each. Im sure if I have asked, we could have gotten more. I didn't like washing dishes where I had just spat my toothpaste in the bathroom. That isn't sanitary. Maybe they should take the dishes away and wash better to keep it clean?
Tidy and clean. Was comfortable. The bed was cosy, too. Easy to get to different places. Quite central to what we needed. Was good value, and the shower had good pressure. Good value for 2/3 people.

New ZealandThe shower is small and the only mirror is in the bathroom so for getting ready it would be good to have a mirror somewhere in one of the other rooms.
The room was spacious with a separate bedroom. There was a small table and chairs and tea/coffee making facilities. The bathroom was quite big. We did not hear a lot of road noise which was a plus.
