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):
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.
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.).

AustraliaMy wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Motel Bowen Inn, and we can confidently say it was one of the most memorable experiences we've had. Nestled in a fantastic location, this charming motel offers not just convenience, but a true sense of comfort and care. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth by Janice and Hans, the lovely couple who manage the property. Their hospitality was nothing short of exceptional. They went above and beyond to make our special day even more meaningful with a thoughtful gesture that truly touched our hearts. It’s rare to find such kindness and personal attention, and it made all the difference. The rooms are immaculate, spacious, and beautifully maintained, with incredibly comfortable beds that ensured a restful night’s sleep. Every detail reflects pride in presentation and a commitment to guest comfort. One of the standout features is the on-site restaurant, which boasts a cozy fireplace—the perfect setting for a chilly evening spent with your partner. The ambiance is intimate and inviting, making it ideal for a romantic dinner or simply unwinding after a day of exploring. In every way, Motel Bowen Inn exceeded our expectations. But what truly sets it apart is the genuine warmth and care from Hans and Janice. Their dedication to making guests feel welcome and valued is what transforms a good stay into a great one. We would highly recommend this motel to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and heartwarming place to stay. Whether you're passing through or celebrating something special, Motel Bowen Inn is the perfect choice.

AustraliaI would have liked a couple bowls and spoons for an early morning breakfast in room. It was a Sunday and the cafe/restaurant was closed.
The size of the room was great for our family needs. Room was clean. Beds comfy. Great shower pressure and temperature. We'd stay again! Given its proximity to the highway it was quiet.

What a fabulous hotel. My partner and I hadn't stayed here before, but we found it to be clean, comfy, and quiet. Staff, upon checking in, were super friendly, very chatty and engaging, and just as friendly upon checking out at 7.30 the following morning. The room was very spacious, clean, and warm, and the bed was really comfy (my partner and I both have back issues, so beds are a key feature - we had a great sleep). We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back to stay here where we are in Lithgow next
