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 reviewWelcomed by Isabel shortly after self check-in. Loved the lambs in the neighbouring paddock. Host provided some cereals, bread, milk, spreads, etc basics which was so helpful arriving with kids as it meant it was easy to get them some breakfast before heading into town for the day. Lovely self catering BnB and really great for a family, as it has a kitchen, bathroom, laundry room which is often essential when traveling with kids. We found it warm and cosy with great heating options in the main living areas (heat pump can heat the whole house) and bedrooms (wall panel heaters) and a heater in the bathroom as well.

Verified reviewAfter a 7-hour drive from Whangarei, going straight to Te Matatini for an entire day of beautiful madness, we checked in to On Tate. What a beautiful, homely little place surrounded by peace 10 minutes out of New Plymouth. We were able to come back and shower and get 12 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Thank you to the host whom we didn't see but allowed us to enjoy their beautiful accommodation.

Verified reviewLarge apartment with plenty of space in a rural environment. Quiet location 17 km to New Plymouth. Very well equippt kitchen, but the dishwasher is old and doesn't wash well. Washing machine but no dryer. Many flies but no flying grids at the windows....that is not comfortable. The pillows are to hard.

Verified reviewWas a nice little home that reminded me of my home. I loved the farm surrounding, made it feel you were away from the hustle and bustle. It was nice to see that the owners of the property were only a few steps away, but they kept to themselves and were really hospitable.
I liked everything about the property but probably would suggest a security door/ sliding door( security mesh) to leave opened during the summer nights.

Verified reviewNice large space. Easy to access. Lock box so didn't need to interact with anyone. Rooms were decent size. Beds and pillows were sooo comfy. Was helpful that toilet, bathroom and shower were all in diff rooms so diff people could use at the same time. Provided basic staple food such as cereals, milk, butter, bread etc free of charge. Contact details clearly communicated for emergencies.
Mix communication about check out time. Booking.com app said 9 - 9.30 but at location the book said 9.30 (I think) and the board said 10. No or limited comms about the other part of the house which I assume is a seperate area for booking.
Hi Sarahlee. Thank you for your review. I have checked again on the Booking.com app and check out is at 10:00am, our comments book also says 10:00am and the board says 10:00am. I am not sure where you found the times. I have however made sure that all shows 10:00am checkout. I am sorry about the confusion . The other part of the house is our home and not open for booking. Hope you enjoyed your stay and we would love to have you again in future if you are coming this way again.
