Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

ItalyWendy is an absolutely fantastic host! I felt right at home. The house is equipped with every possible comfort to make your stay enjoyable, tastefully furnished and embellished with Wendy's patchwork quilts. The location is excellent: very close to the beach and a walk from the center of Devonport. Perfectly quiet at night, with the pleasant sound of birds singing during the day. In addition, Wendy and Mike's courtesy and kindness made our stay wonderful. I really miss it!

Charming, extremely well appointed; home away from home. Great location near some great beaches on the North Shore. Lovely to find generous breakfast supplies, including Nespresso coffee, and home baked treats. Especially after a day of travel. Lovely to wake up to native tui birdsong.

AustraliaWe liked everything
The Partchery was a wonderful place to stay. The hosts have thought of everything to make guests feel comfortable and at home. The property was very clean and comfortable with a very comfortable bed. The hosts thoughtfully provided some useful breakfast supplies and treats. It was nice staying in a place with character, with the art work and patchwork pieces creating an inviting ambience. We enjoyed sitting in the little outdoor area in the cool of the day. The location was very good. Devonport was an interesting place to explore with lots of history. It is an easy and short trip by ferry across to the city of Auckland. We would definitely recommend staying at The Partchery.

We enjoyed our stay at the Partchery and highly recommend it. Wendy is very helpful and has thoughtfully provided everything, all to a high standard. Plus lots of little extras - we loved the fruit, croissants and bubbly.. It is very private and has its own lovely outdoor setting. Only 6 minutes from Devonport, we shall come again. Thankyou Shirley and Mike. PS Love the artwork

New ZealandSince there is only one road getting into and out of Devonport, traffic can be a problem. Fine if you stay local.
Light and airy feel. Lots of welcoming extras. An expresso coffee machine! Friendly, helpful hosts. Nice walks in the area.

What a gem of a place. Loved the extra touches - milk, cereals, teas, coffee, coffee maker, chocolates, comfy bed and lounge with large smart TV as well as a washing machine. The beautiful patchwork and art throughout was wonderful. Wendy was so lovely and gave us lots of good info on the area too. One of our absolute favourite Airbnbs in NZ.

New ZealandMike and Wendy are the perfect hosts who have clearly put their heart and soul into making this property a very special retreat. The Cleanliness and quality of finish of the property was immaculate. The appliances were top quality and a joy to use. As a result, I have gone and bought the same Nespresso machine! The location is perfect with the ferry service to the city just a comfortable walk away. We would definitely stay here again. Well done Mike and Wendy, you are amazing.

GermanyWendy and Mike are wonderful hosts who have thought of everything to make guests feel welcome and help them make the most of their stay. The Partchery is spotlessly clean, comfortable and homely. I was treated to some delicious food and drink as a welcoming gift that really helped me out with my supplies for the long weekend. While the area is primarily residential, it is well connected to the Devonport ferry terminal and other parts of the city via the local bus routes. I can particularly recommend the local Thai takeaway that Wendy told me to try! Guests looking for a quiet home away from home during their time in Auckland will find it here. Thank you Wendy and Mike!
