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.).

GermanyThere are no mosquito nets in the room, it wasnt really necessary since there are only a few mosquitos, but if you need the safety of a net you have to be aware of that. The bed was ok for me but rather hard. All in all the shower was the best one we had throughout our whole stay in Tanzania but it was almost impossible to close the tap without it still leaking water.
The breakfast is great, you have the choice of 3 different types, its tasty and plenty of food. The staff is very friendly even though we had some disscussions about the payment at first, we could clear it all and everything was good. The boss is very friendly and we could even have the room a bit longer since we were the last guests. Its located right at the beach.

United Arab EmiratesMy only minor complaint would be the bed; the mattress creates a sort of ditch where you’ve been lying but you quickly get used to it and it’s really not a huge deal!
Lovely little property, sympathetically and simply decorated it felt very welcoming and the staff are wonderful. It really feels like a family run business and the food in the restaurant downstairs - The Corner - was delicious, well worth a visit! The shower pressure was great, both hot and cold water and the a/c worked perfectly (very necessary given the temps whilst we were there) The location is great too, literally 2 mins from the beach and there’s an outdoor shower to wash the sand off before you head to your room. Terri who runs the Getaway is super helpful and accommodating, always around if you need something (not sure when she sleeps!) and her team seem to be just as dedicated - it really felt like home by the time we left.

AustraliaMany people walking past the room to get to the beach/restaurant, no privacy if curtains open alternative is to be in the dark room with curtains closed. No communal/ sitting area away from room.
Great location, close to beach. Clean and tidy room. Aircon worked well.

CanadaWhen we booked we booked 2 rooms for 2 people. It was not at all cleared that we had to say 2 rooms 4 people. Therefore once we got to the hotel we were told we had to pay extra for the extra 2 people that was not listed. Bit disappointed with the advertising.
Location was excellent. Terry was very helpful and an excellent hostess. Breakfast was also good but the staff could at least try to remember a bit more of our routine of what we ordered.

FinlandWalls seemed soundproof, however the door and windows let noise in when someone walked by. Mattress and pillows could have been better (you "sink" into them). Power went out a couple of times (not to blame the hotel) and once water stopped running (quickly fixed though). Nice stay despite minor faults!
Perfect location, short walk from the beach. Shops and restaurants close by. Very helpful and friendly staff. Room AC worked well. Breakfast and restaurant very good. Horse stables close if one wants to ride/swim with horses. Walkable distance (via beach) to Kendwa Rocks where we spent a day (access to sunbeds, towels, pool area, beach, WiFi 10usd/pers).

VietnamI had friends staying in Nungwi and I was not allowed to have anyone visit me at the hotel. I understand this is a liability, but it was a slight inconvenience
Perfect location right next to the beach. The restaurant that is connected to the hotel has the best pizza from a wood fire pizza oven. The room was cleaned everyday and in general, the facilities are extremely well kept. The owners are both really nice and helpful!

SwitzerlandWe could not go out from that hotel area. The hotel is standing in middle of souvenir shops , so that p had to pass through there to go to the beach. The beach is totally for tourists place.
The hotel restaurant was always good. The staffs were always friendly and remember us well. The beach is really closed from the hotel. Cleaning ladies came to changed towels more than 2 times in the room.
