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.).

New ZealandSome damage to walls that hadn’t been fixed/finished properly. Green spot stains on my sheets. A few more kitchen utensils would have been good - e.g tongs, sissors, steak knives, a smaller knife for cutting things etc. Cheap toilet paper.
Great location, lovely unit. Loved the dual rooms with their own ensuite, the spa and the cooking facilities. Nice toiletries.

Accessibility - late booking. Supportive staff with late check in, drop box feature for check out when staff away from desk. The room was perfect for one person and own dining facility and a deck loved it.

New ZealandWe were greeted with a lovely smile and friendly staff member who made the check-in process simple and efficient. Our room was beautiful and very clean, had everything we needed, and the beach front view and private spa really topped it off. I would highly recommend it to others and would stay here again in a heartbeat. And can I also say the shower was amazing...

New ZealandThe bed... unfortunately, the base of the bed has seen better days, so it was more comfortable placing the mattress on the floor for a well supported nights sleep. Please note we have an ecosa firm mattress at home so prefer firm over fluffy. If you don't have any alignment issues (back, hips, neck etc) you may be fine.
Location; Excellent if you want to watch the sunrise and explore local attractions and the whats on offer in town. Excellent if you have children as the aquarium, skate park, park & Lick It ice cream parlour are a short stroll away. The team are great, especially the room attendants, the ladies are extremely helpful and accommodating. The rooms are warm, tidy, quiet and have everything you need for a home away from home. We had a spa bath room, which is great for relaxing those tired muscles and watching TV in. Take an HDMI cable and a laptop to access your Netflix account as the TVs do not offer connectivity to your phone.

AustraliaThe suite was tired in places, some furniture was dusty, and room could have smelled fresher. I wondered if this particular room (#1) was typical of the Motor Inn. No blanket was provided for the beds in the second bedroom which was odd given how cold it was, so we had to go ask for that.
We stayed in a luxury family suite which was offered at a reasonable rate given the off-peak time of year. It was very spacious and included a spa bath. Location was lovely being across the road from parkland and the beach, and close to eateries (recommend Kohinoor which is close by).

Large spacious room with a large proper spa bath (not a bath with jets in it). Loved the morning coffee from the balcony, which had an awesome uninterrupted view of the Pacific Ocean directly across the road. Friendly staff. Great value for money at this time of year.

New ZealandIf you like a firm mattress or stable sleep, I'm not sure you'll appreciate the beds here. The mattresses could do with being upgraded. I highly recommend contacting ecosa for their firm/align options and negotiating a great rate to roll out throughout to update them.
The staff are friendly, the location is fantastic as you're a short stroll from activities (the aquarium is right across the road, the park, skate park and ice cream parlour are a short stroll away), places to eat and shop. The rooms are clean and are a nice option on the beach, with stunning views. I loved being able to watch the sunrise. Pillows are comfortable, shower products are okay but ladies I do recommend you BYO shampoo and conditioner for your colour treated hair. Love the hot drink selection, and the Arnott cookies are a nice touch, but you'll have to fight over who gets the chocolate chip one.
