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.).

United KingdomThis property matched or exceeded our expectations, so nothing to complain about.
Awesome amount of space in 2 bed apartment. Location allowed for a pleasant stroll back from the esplanade after dinner. Air conditioning (especially in lounge) was really good. Pool area was pleasant. Furnishing was probably what you expect at this price level. Well equipped kitchen.

AustraliaWe thought the apartment should have been cleaned at the same time the linen was changed. The linen is getting a bit old looking.
We had a fantastic view of the pool area & loved sitting on the veranda eating breakfast & having afternoon drinks etc. The reception staff were very helpful & nothing was a problem. A big thank you there.

United StatesThe pool was okay but the hot tub was warm if that. No elevator/lift and we were given the top floor for my 72 year old mother to climb steps with her walking cane.
When I arrived there was a long hair on each body towel and dust in a variety of corners in the apartment.

AustraliaThere is no lift at the property and we were on the second floor so we found it a bit tiring carrying up bags and shopping.
Location was very central to Cairns city and esplanade, you could easily walk around to shops and restaurants. The pool looked lovely though we didn't swim. Our room was very clean and had everything we needed ie full kitchen, balconies, lounge area, aircon. The property is very secure with electric gates for both pedestrian and vehicle entry. The communication with the property and the staff on check in and check out was excellent.

Unit was a good size, comfortable couches, not far to walk into town, washing machine and dryer worked well. Walk in Shower. (2 bedrooms - 2 bathrooms) Good size kitchen and fridge. Secure car park, easy to get in and out. (We stayed on the first floor which was fine - no lifts need to carry your own luggage up)

AustraliaWe stayed 2 weeks at Getaway on Grafton and we were very surprised to receive an email while we were staying there. The email advised us that Once the teabags and coffee sachets were used we should go to a shop to purchase more ourselves. Plus as we were there for 2 weeks and there were 3 Adults once the 2 toilet rolls were used we had to go and buy more. I feel the apartment we stayed in needed a good spring clean the louvre blinds and ceiling fans were all very dusty.
