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.).

JapanI encountered - failed to encounter, really - a staff member who just couldn't be found. No idea where she took herself off to, but I wasted a whole hour sitting in front of the unattended front desk waiting for her to reappear.
This was my second time staying here. It's surprisingly quiet given that there are four beds in each room. The beds are big and comfortable. I have no complaints about the hotel itself.

PhilippinesIt's a shared room so it is expected that there will be noise. The 4 BR Pod comes with a kitchenette so when people cook, expect that there are certain food that have distinctive smell. It's not like waking up to the smell of fresh brewed coffee.
Gorgeous staff, men and women. They're really cool. Young and vibrant and one of the most accommodating front desk personnel I've met. I forgot their names tho coz I'm in my 50s lol. Recommend for big groups of 4 or 5 so you can take the whole 5 bedroom pod. There's a kitchenette and a balcony where you can chill and you don't have to worry about bothering someone when cook or making too much noise.

PhilippinesSometimes, the toilet/shower is a bit messy in our floor but still manageable since it is a common area (the one that I booked).
I really like the room that I booked, it is very comfortable even it is for sharing. I still have privacy even if I have other roommates. The staff is really accommodating and explains thoroughly the property ameneties. The place is located in the quiet side of the city and I can sleep well. It is just a few minute walk to the city centre and very accessible. The common area such as lobby and kitchen is pretty nice and there are a lot of toilets/showers. The locker storage is huge and even the biggest size luggage can fit into it. Overall, I enjoyed staying in this place. I would definitely recommend this property if you are looking for a reasonable price in Queenstown.

AustraliaThe doors leading to and from the dorm room were extremely heavy and are impossible to close quietly. Every time someone entered or exited the room, you knew about it. I stayed in an 8-bed dorm, 4 lockers were located inside the room (beds A-D) and 4 lockers were located outside the room (beds E-H) which meant the door was constantly being opened or closed as people went between the beds and the lockers. The en-suite bathroom had a light that was on a (very short) timer and the light would go off quite a bit, not the end of the world but annoying when you’re trying to brush your teeth or sitting on the toilet.
The location is amazing, steps away from Queenstown CBD and the waterfront, walking distance to bus stops, supermarket, and start of several hiking trails. I stayed in an 8-bed dorm (queen pod) and the bed was quite comfy! The kitchen was well-equipped and had lots of storage space for dry food and several fridges as well.

United KingdomI was only at Tahuna for two nights, and found no real problems at all.
Tahuna is a well-positioned place to stay in QT, and the pod format is well executed. The place is clean and smart, and the self-caterers are well provided for (I didn't self-cater). My pod room had an outside terrace with a good view of the town and beyond.
