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...).

A beautiful house, the location was great, in a pleasant, quiet neighbourhood, and only a 5 minutes drive into the downtown across the bridge. The pool and hot tub were magnificent, as was the view across to the city (especially beautiful at night). My son and I had a jolly good time flipping each other with the floaties provided. My husband was tired from driving around. The hot tub did an amazing job to relax him before the flight home. It was simply a fantastic end to our holiday in New Zealand. Accommodation is clean, has a bathroom with a bath, and a separate shower. There is no kitchen, but the room was well equipped with a microwave, toaster, fridge, basic cutlery, and crockery and food for breakfast. Table and chairs in room and on balcony outside, so you can eat in. We slept well. If you are looking for cheap and cheerful eatery and ATM there is a place called Pearn Crescent 5 mins drive away with oriental supermarkets, bakery and various restaurants, I love the Vietnamese one there where you can get a gigantic bowl of Pho for £8. Auckland Airport was only 40 mins drive away (no traffic), this is also a good place to stay if you want to minimise travelling to the airport before a long flight home. Melissa was a fantastic host. She is so warm and very welcoming and helpful in all respects. We left something behind, and she immediately posted it back to the UK for us. Melissa, I would like to stay again! Thank you so much for having us.

New ZealandUnfortunately didn't get to meet Melissa personally but is lovely communicating via text. House is stunning and the location was perfect for us. My husband was competing in tournament in Browns Bay, so my girls and I were out doing experiences and shopping and this place was so central for us. After long trip up to Auckland from NP my youngest jumped in pool and I was dying to relax in the spa bath but unfortunately jets weren't working. Should of thrown on togs and gone out to the amazing spa outside looking over the bay but we had plans with sharks the following day and I only brought the one pair of togs. Did plan to swim Saturday but it rained bumma. Had asked for car park which we got first night and on the second we got back after dinner and our car park had been taken so had to park on street - luckily a quiet street. The king size bed is so funny massive rise in middle. First time away from home where I fell asleep straight away. So comfy - just couldn't cuddle to go to sleep but ended up being blessing as slept like a baby. Girls enjoyed their beds also. My husband enjoyed the convenience of the breakfast before his first game and the balcony would of been ideal if weather had played it's part. Would definitely stay here again.....

New ZealandDidn’t like that we got in late and left early so we didn’t get to spend much time there at all!
We missed meeting Melissa but met Glenn on arrival which was amazing as we arrived pretty late at night. Cute little boards welcoming us with info on it. The room is super comfortable, lighting beautiful, hosts lovely, pool/spa so very relaxing, views spectacular. Could not fault this property at all. Thank you both so much! Myself, husband and daughter cannot wait to come back again!
