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.).

GermanyThe AC was a bit loud, but this is something not too serious and you can hear your neighbors in the house sometimes, but we don't care much
I can't understand all the bad reviews about the "old" house. The room inside the house (taro room) was great! Super spacious, super comfortable bed, huge bathroom, AC, table and sofa. Good water pressure and hot water in the shower. The location was great as well, just infront of the waimea canyon and on the beach. Parking infront of the house! There is a microwave and kettle in the common area. If I would stay there again? Absolutely, if I could afford a second time on Hawaii in general 😂

United StatesSuper dirty right at the edge of bed and under the bed. Parking is under a huge tree (other side was full and street was taken). So LOTS and lots of bird poop on the car. But these are minor. Overall really liked our stay.
Location, location, location. Very glad to have a sitting area and a refrigerator in room too.

United StatesThe roosters outside were really noisy starting at 5:30am. Of course there’s nothing that the owners could do about it that, but people should know that before they book.
The suite was very spacious and our check in/out process was very easy. The property was close to several restaurants (we liked JoJos shave ice and Da Booze Place) and very close to Wimea Canyon. The AC worked well and overall the suite was clean.

AustraliaA must for this property is block out curtains…what they currently have just changes the colour of the sunlight and doesn’t stop it coming in at all. It wasn’t what I would call acceptably clean. Bits on the floor I could feel on my bare feet. I dropped something on the floor and went to pick it up and under the bed hadn’t been vacuumed in I couldn’t tell you how long.
The property was charming with a nice casual rustic appeal

IrelandThe bathtub is not only far from hygienic, it’s also dangerous to get in and inaccessible for anyone with mobility issues. The kettle once available in the common area was taken for over a day - each room should have a kettle. Last but not least - the roosters kept us awake from 4am, which was way too early even if we wanted to start our day early considering the sunrise wasn’t until 6:30.
Great spot for exploring the Canyon. Property a stone throw from a black sand beach with a beautiful sunset. Best shaved ice on the island within a walking distance.
