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.).

GermanyThe house needs renovating, facilities are used. But what can be cleaned is clean and value for money is great! Area is gated and quiet, but a few shops/restaurants in walking distance.
Most amazing, kind, attentive staff! We had to extend our stay due to illness and were taken care of so nicely. Great fresh breakfast and other food. Spacious rooms and lounge areas. Nice pool.

BelgiumThe place is beautiful but needs tlc (tender loving care!). Some paint job and renovation would do wonders to the place. Due to the heat at the coast, I expected that they would provide a bottle of water each day as part of the service instead of charging for it.
The breakfast was good especially excellent fruit. The location was good in that it is quiet, peaceful. But is was necessary to use a car or tuktuk to get into shopping malls.

PolandRooms, especially bathrooms, require some decent refreshment, but generally it was clean.
The Leinmach House helped us to find a backup accommodation, as we were duped by another Mombasa guesthouse. A staff is very friendly. The location is very good, close to the best Mombasa beach and not far away from the Old Town. There is also very nice Italian restaurant in the area.

South AfricaThe rooms need a little bit of TLC and I feel that even a coat of paint would go a long way to make the room look updated. My biggest disappointment was that there was no hot water in the shower. I was told that the geyser uses solar power to heat the water and that it takes a long time for the hot water to arrive in the shower. It did not, however, make any difference what time of day I showered or how long I waited for the hot water, it never came.
I thought that Leinmach House was the ideal place for me to stay for my work trip. It was very clean, safe, quiet and the staff were all very friendly. It is conveniently located within walking distance to some great restaurants and to the beach. I had some very enjoyable swims in the swimming pool at the end of my work day. The food served in the restaurant was very tasty and good value for money.

PolandIt was clean but everything is so old that is not looks well the most in bathroom. Door in bathroom doesn't work which is not comfortable. Also some of window can't close and mosquito net has to big holes so we had a lot of mosquito inside the room :(
Hosts are very nice and helpful. We can leave our baggage after check out. Towels and bed linen we're changed every day (it was nice but i think is not necessary). Breakfasts we're tasty but if you want tee you need to say "black tee" without that you will get tee with milk ;) it is close to the mamba village which it is very big PLUS :)
