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.).

Verified reviewThe room was very run down and needed a good clean. Carpet was filthy, curtains were worn and dirty. Couch was uncomfortable and smelly. Bathroom floor was filthy and no shower curtain, so everything got wet.

Verified reviewGreat location
The smoke alarms r covered in plastic so they dont go off.there's a warning, if your cooking /showering causes the alarm to go you must pay fee. The unit is in need of a good deep clean, carpets/ tiles in bathroom very grubby, attention needed to hang curtains properly,dusting and cleaning the grout. . The linen was fresh and white and bed comfortable Excellent location

Verified reviewThe location of the keys was advertised as being only 5 minutes away which was correct. However on this particular weekend the Sunshine Coast Marathon was taking place and the pick up location was located right at the race precinct which made it impossible to park and run into the grocery store. Returning the keys was also very difficult with road closures and virtually no street parking available. For an event organised months in advance it's baffling to me that other arrangements could not be made for this weekend only. In my welcome email i was told we would receive 2 keys however when we got back to the hotel we discovered only one which made planning our day difficult. Though the place was pretty clean it's very very dated with broken decorations and curtains hanging off the hooks. Mould in the bathroom isn't great and the hairdryer is ancient and crackles when in use, sounding too unsafe to even use. Even though we were there for 1 night only and we didn't spend much time in the unit itself, we would not book this unit again.
Hi Alys, Thank you for your review. We’d like to address your concerns and clarify a few inaccuracies in your comments. Firstly, you were well aware that your booking coincided with the Sunshine Coast Marathon weekend. Road closures during such events are entirely expected and beyond our control; this is simply common sense and cannot fairly be attributed to us. As explained at the time, the previous guest only returned one of the keys. Reissuing new keys is not an instant process, and this was also outside of our control. Regarding your comment on the apartment being dated, this is true of the entire building and is clearly reflected in the photos provided in our listing. Your claim about mould in the bathroom is inaccurate—our cleaners’ photos, taken before your arrival, confirm that no mould was present. This was an unfounded statement. The hairdryer has since been replaced, and all curtains remain securely fixed to their railings. We strive to provide a transparent and accurate representation of our listings and are disappointed by these mischaracterisations in your review.

Verified reviewNot as clean and there was no surgery for tea or coffee.
An average score of 8 based on what the guest has scored is for each aspect, yet somehow gives us a 5 overall. No issues brought to our attention during the stay and we don’t know why the guest wanted surgery with their coffee.

Hi Jaco, It’s unfortunate when guests steal batteries from our property, but as soon as you informed us, we promptly delivered fresh batteries to resolve the issue. It would have been appreciated if you acknowledged our quick response and effort to rectify the situation. As for the pool, it is managed by the onsite managers and is outside of our control, so it’s unfair to hold us accountable for its condition. We always strive to provide the best experience possible within our responsibilities.

Verified reviewProximity to Wharf for a birthday celebrations.
The property is tired and needs maintenance and refurbishing for the money you pay per night the fixtures and finishing need updating to support the fees. Pillows and beds are cheap and far too soft for any couple to sleep comfortably, one person in our party had to sleep on the couch to get some sleep. Didn’t like having to drive 10 mins to collect and return the accommodation keys, having a secure lockbox with a unique code would be easier for all like other B&b’s have.

Verified reviewGreat spot, good old school apartment. Friendly team to deal with, and accommodated our early check in - THANK YOU!
Access instructions could be provided at the key pickup at Alex Headlands (access is not off the street address). Easy enough to find in daytime, not so sure at night.
Thanks Vincent all the details are sent to you when booking then again on the day of check in. Sorry we cant expect the shop to give you details yet again sorry.
