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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

QatarCheck-inn was a hassle, room was not ready despite us being on time. The swimming pool is small and very shallow, they clean it in swimming hours so you cannot use it on schedule. Despite the cleaning, the water seems unclean.
The entire complex is very pleasant, beautiful gardens, great beachfront area, good breakfast buffet... suites have nice terrace/balcony. Easily accessible from the main road. Spacious room

United KingdomI didn't have towels in my room & in the swimming pool despite numerous requests! Felt amused though with their excuse that the towels were washed in the morning and awaiting to dry in hot sunny Diani 12 hours after 😀. I couldn't operate the AC in my room but then who needs the AC when you are out all day?
Location is great, with own beach and fully staffed bar. Last minute change of accommodation but we're happy to take me in last minute and in a busy season after one booked originally in the area fell through! Grateful I got a place. Staff were friendly and kind.

KenyaThe pool does not cater for adults at all. Its shallow and very small this fits kids but not adults. I tried going for a swim once and the pool was very crowded and the treatment was super concentrated. I didn't spend more than five minutes in, I preferred the Ocean with its seaweed and all. The rooms could use some renovation here and there. The bathroom was constantly clogged after a shower and it made me feel bad that the cleaners had to deal with it on a daily. It just needs some improvements to be better. The rooms could use some bins, we were very limited with where to dispose out items. Also the kitchen was unusable, cutlery and pans were rusted and the space was just not ideal, the kitchen should really be looked into.
The staff on the ground was quite friendly and ready to assist. The facility was kept clean and was very green making it scenic and ambient. I loved that the place is easily located and it's not far from the shopping areas. The place is super safe we practically were without our room key and the room stayed open even when we were out and about and nothing went missing the entire time. The food prepared is also top notch, the food must have been my highlight, try the chicken biriyani it was a 10 plus the chef was super nice the entire time and not the fake kind of nice, just a genuine nice with an everyday concern of how we were fairing on it was a great touch.

GermanyDuring this period of time there was a lot of seaweed on the beach. Hence we had to go to another beach to swim in the ocean. However, this took less than 10 minutes and was not too big of a deal.
It was well maintained and the staff was very helpful and friendly. wifi was good and we had hot showers. Also, the food was delicious and very affordable compared to other restaurants in the area. The landscaping is very nice as well. Great value for money!

KenyaThe sockets in the bedroom of our cottage didn't work, there was no hot water shower, the toilet was wobbly and there were ants in the room. There was also false information on booking.com as appliances listed were not available for example ; Microwave, coffee/tea maker, kettle and the freezer didn't have a door. The kitchen was very outdated including the utensils which were also not enough. The beach was full af seaweed.
The swimming pool and proximity to the beach was great.

The staff was super friendly, helpful and very professional. The value was great compared to other properties in close proximity . Conveniently located near a supermarket, restaurants and ATM/ banks. We would definitely stay there again.
