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...).

FranceBut still price too high compare to quality. Moreover, even if a park is dedicated, it is not practical because is very tight and the room is on opposite of building
Better room than courtyard one. Much more place and more clean.

United KingdomThe bathroom is very odd being accessed via a corridor, somehow didn’t feel private. Tiled walls didn’t make it feel homely.
The view and sound of the sea. A lovely big comfy bed and breakfast was nice. Nice pieces of artwork and hand upholstered chair.

AustraliaThe biggest concern for our stay was no real kitchen, kitchen sink, dryer, washing machine etc, but we managed. The lady who serviced our apartment each day was very thorough as we had no kitchen sink she came and collected our dirty dishes daily and restocked us with any food supplies we needed e.g. cereal , fruit , cheese etc. The owner or Manager was on hand to assit with any tricky problems too, a very pleasant person.
The location was fantastic, close to the water front, the shops and the delightful town. There were loads of opportunity to visit really interesting tourist attractions e.g. castles etc ,loads of opportunity for quite rest and relaxation plus wonderful walks.

United KingdomThe bathroom was a bit strange it was through a door on to a small corridor but was still private to that apartment. It’s not the biggest bathroom, the shower dominates the room and the sink is extremely small. Good shower, plenty of hot water and toiletries.
Bayview is in an excellent position facing the sea. You walk straight out of the apartment and you’re right on the front. Follow the path up to the monument where the views are amazing, you will pass a lovely little harbour on the way. A self serve breakfast had plenty of choice. 2 small bottles of wine on arrival was a lovely touch which we enjoyed sitting on the balcony enjoying the view. The bed was large, comfortable and had good quality bedding. Quite a large apartment. There’s no parking outside as your on the seafront, we drove the car down the small road and unpacked then parked on the streets free which we were never more than 5 mins away and there was always plenty of spaces. David leaves a map in the room which shows you the free parking streets.

Australia“Courtyard” room as stated was really a carpark , not a courtyard. Room quite small . Bit pricey for what you got. 2 nights before we had a 2 storey apartment around the corner, full kitchen/ laundry , lounge 2 bedrooms for cheaper . Just couldn’t book a 3rd night there.
Near the beach. Great breakfast left in the room . Nice staff . Clean .
