How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Our last day in Darwin was a bit of a waste as we had to be out of apt by 10.00am which is ok but the Oaks staff said we couldn’t store luggage for any time for us as we were in priv apt. Our flight not until 4.00pm so had to sit around until then with luggage.

Verified reviewSpacious and comfortable apartment. Host very accessible (we ran out of dishwashing liquid and quickly replaced). A family member decided to join us for a couple of days and while there wasn't a bed for them we were left extra sheets for the couch. Amazing view of Darwin Harbour and sunsets. It's in the Oaks Elan complex so restaurant on site and staff at desk helpful also. Given the price of accom in Darwin this was good value.
The second bedroom has no view but it's a bedroom so no drama really. Lifts could be a bit slow at peak times. Very little sun on the pool area (but a great cool temperature)

Verified reviewGreat location and views.
In the second bedroom the curtain aimed at reducing light from the corridor needs to be replaced with an effective blind that blocks the light.

Verified reviewIt was well kept clean and good access
Apartment above continuously moved chairs around which was annoying and in some cases woke us up while we tried to sleep. This was a major problem for us. Having to travel down to our car access during busy days like weekend was also very frustrating as demo time to time the floor button would not pick up our selection using our fob.

Verified reviewGreat place in the heart and walking distance to everything in Darwin City. Amazing clean, everything needed was provided!
Be aware that parking at the property is only possible for CARS up to 2.1m !!!!!! No 4WD but parking in front of the building is safe ( for a council fee) Pictures are accurate, the place is however not on the top floor. The name "Penthouse Pad" is a name only, not location of the apartment.

Verified reviewSpacious apartment, pantry well stocked with tea and coffee etc. Air conditioned and great fams. Great location, fabulous harbour and Darwin City views with a roomy patio. Gregory was incredibly helpful and welcoming. Loads of laneway style bars, distilleries and great restaurants just around the corner.
The beds were super comfy but would love a King bed as an extra indulgence.
