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.).

AustraliaThe facilities were quite dilapidated. The carpet inone of the units was very stained and threadbare. Some of the lights didn't work and some of the showers had hair left in them from a previous occupant. The upstairs floor was very noisy, making it difficult for people in the downstairs room to sleep.
It was a good location and the staff were friendly and helpful. It looked like they were slowly renovating as there was a big difference in the quality of the units.

New ZealandThe couch was a little uncomfortable and some of the paint work could be soon ready for a refresh
Friendly and helpful staff, the unit had great heating, plenty of space, a well equipped kitchen and a beautiful outlook to blossoming trees. The location was excellent, close to the magnificent Hocken Library, the Botanical Gardens and the buzzing heart of Dunedin city.

New ZealandBathroom in the family room Outdated upstairs room
We booked 3 separate rooms. Feedback above was based on the room I had (Room 308) Single Room - was amazing, excellent, modern, warm, exceptional Family Room - Loads of space, excellent, modern, warm. Only down fall - bathroom was out dated Upstairs Room - Out dated. Had teenagers in there so they weren't to fussed grateful for the wifi. Grateful for the washing facilities, just perhaps look at the dryer as it wasn't working and we ended up taking our stuff to the dry cleaners. Although slightly outdated in some areas I would definitely recommend this motel. Central to everything. Walking distance to town and eateries.

New ZealandNoise can be a little annoying. We were in a middle unit this time and we heard a lot of noise from the other units beside us things like their toilet flushing, showering, climbing of stairs etc which we didn’t get as much of when we have been in the end units. Cleanliness was generally ok, showers could use a good bleaching and toothbrush scrub as there was soap scum buildup in the corners and around the edges.
We stay here often as it is very budget friendly. Staff are always pleasant and the location is very handy. It has a good amount of space for families in the 2 bedroom apartments. As well as the small playground area too. We do book the refurbished apartment as the normal ones are quite tired but functional.
