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.).

AustraliaRoom was spacious but everything felt a little tired. I’m not sure I would have felt confident using the stove. It was nice to have a view of the water but it was also directly above the main drain and the neighbourhood didn’t feel particularly vibrant or inviting. An ‘internal’ room overlooking the pool might have been more peaceful in terms of road noise.
Large, self-contained apartment with decent pool on the waterfront. Lovely view of sunrise. Friendly staff. Good breakfast and free airport transfers.

SwedenThe staff was very helpful and super friendly. The property is decent. My room vas very big, plus a kitchen and livingroom; fridge had not been defrosted for years, and the sofa had seen better days. Bed was comfortable. The included laundry service excellent. Had to ask for new towels after four days, was given one little tiny soap for a weeks stay. The hotel is quite far from the centre.

AustraliaNot really walking distance to anything, but I knew that on booking. Don't rely on breakfast to get you through, it's a very basic selection of bread and cereal.
Massive apartment and great balcony, good aircon. The free pickup and drop off to the airport just made one less thing to think about. Nice big pool. Just a good spot to unwind and read a book.

AustraliaAn upgrade to the pool furniture would be nice. The lounges and umbrella have seen better days.
I love this place. The staff made my stay here most enjoyable. They were friendly, caring, helpful...all the things. When they come to clean your room daily, they do everything, including sweeping and washing the floors...noice! I loved the pool...spent probably way too much time in it! Hot breakfast included in the price...most tasty indeed. Very quiet area of Dili, right on the beach, but close enough to Timor Plaza to get supplies. Not that I did, but it's a full apartment including cooking facilities if you were so inclined.

United Arab EmiratesWiFi on and off . First day had to change room due to no wifi. Our second day we never had WiFi through out the day. Same day we had power cuts every 5 minutes. Which made us hate our stay and was about to leave. (Cindy jumped in and assisted providing a data sim.) Bathroom is moldy. Cleaning didn't happened on our 3rd day hence we had to ask water from reception. There were no kitchenette (pots pans... ) had to ask for a glass and tea cups from the reception. 2 days had ran out of toilet paper. No toiletries. Breakfast average and almost same.
Apartment was spacious. Balcony with the view. Swimming pool. Front of the road and sea. Reception manager Cindy was very welcoming and extremely helpful. She Was the one to hold up the place and customers.
