Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaI think one big black out curtain one the front entrance that actually blocked out light in case we wanted to sleep in. along with a blind or small curtain to block light for the small window for the same reason. The plants on the driveway needed a trim as they made it a little hard to get pasted without being worried about scratching my car.
Room size was good, bed was surprisingly comfy, kitchen was very useable, I like that they provided simple things like bin bags and cooking utensils. location is nice and quite. The a/c was confusing at first but worked well.

AustraliaI had to kill about 3 spiders, which made me keep the door of the bathroom ajar with the light on so I didn’t feel scared if there were more spiders around.
It was clean, neat, new. Had all we needed for 2 nights.

AustraliaI’m sensitive to fragrance. Perfume from the plug in air freshener in the toilet has permeated the whole studio. Had to leave door and window open to air out the room. Smell was too strong otherwise.
Nicely furnished. Have everything you need for a short stay. Bed was comfortable. Appreciate the bottle of wine and breakfast ingredients. Feels private and great view.

AustraliaNot really a criticism, but be aware that this is a granny flat at the front of a large home. I did feel quite private and away from the home and there was a lovely view down the hill.
The view and the location in relation to places around, including Kiama Village. Property is on a hill and there is a lovely view. Take note that you need a car to drive to Kiama Village, but I could park right outside the accommodation and there were no stairs to the entry. I was a young woman travelling alone with a small dog. It was wonderful to find accommodation that accepted her and it was the most reasonably priced accommodation I found for that purpose around Kiama. I would definitely stay here again.
