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...).

United StatesSpacious, lovely and comfortable space with kitchenette and a couch. Outside seating area also with plants, very inviting. The best part was the wonderful breakfasts with fresh fruit and preserves and great company! Location very easy for getting downtown and to the ferries for day trips. Highly recommend wine tasting on Waiheke Island!

CanadaIt was all wonderful
Gracious hosts, who made us totally comfortable. Beautiful place to stay. A bit separated from the main home for privacy. Cindy helped us fix a suitcase, with an old fashioned lock we couldn’t get open. Lovely breakfast. Great tips about the city. Easy 10 minute bus ride to downtown. Nice wee plaza, just a couple of blocks away, with coffee shops, bakery (with pies!), a convenience store, a tapas bar…Would definitely book here again.

United StatesTerry and Cindy were amazing! The apartment room was cute and had everything we needed. The garden was beautiful to sit out in the evenings and enjoy the breeze. The location was close enough to Auckland city center to get there quickly, but also far enough out to enjoy some peace and quiet. Breakfast with Terry and Cindy was great, but getting to talk to them was even better. They had great recommendations on how to spend our time. Overall, an incredible stay, and when we come back, we’ll look them up first!

The bed and breakfast is more like a small flat, it is spacious, quite and has everything you need for a nice stay. Terry and Cindy are a very lovely elderly couple who invite you into there home to have breakfast with them. The breakfast is simple but very good and fresh made.

AustraliaThe bed was amazingly comfortable, though we found the pillows to be a bit lacking in support for our tastes.
The breakfast was simply delightful, and the company was even better. We were treated to delicious baked treats throughout our stay, a sweet touch we truly appreciated. The location was incredibly convenient—a short walk to the bus stop that whisked us into Auckland's vibrant city center in no time.

A large roomy B&B, well equipped to allow cooking and dining. Free wifi. The proprietors Cindi and Terry are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The room has a beautiful relaxing garden view and the fridge was stocked with unexpected extras - jams, orange juice, butter and milk, and a jar of cookies on the table. Great location in the MIssion Bay area with nearby restaurants. Only a few minutes away from Auckland Harbour and downtown, and close to the exceptional Auckland Aquarium with its penguins. A real keeper.
