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.).

LebanonThe pressure of water in the shower was not that strong, but it was ok. I think it is like that in most of the places in Tanzania.
The place in itself is just a 1 min walking distance to the beach of Nungwi. Helena, the owner, was very supportive and gave us good recommendations to our trip in Zanzibar. We booked 2 nights a room with a fan. Because it was too hot, we asked to be upgraded to a room with AC and we just paid the difference. The breakfast was decent it includes fruits, eggs, coffee, and a piece of cake. Super value for money. High recommended

GermanyOccassional power supply black-outs and brown-outs at Nungwi (however fully outside the control of the hotel).
One of the hotels with the best price-to-value ratio I have ever been to: Very friendly staff, tasty breakfast (fruit, eggs, bread, cake, coffee) and less than 100m away from the beach. Rooms are well equipped and from some of them you can even directly see the sea. WiFi and AC have been running reliably during the whole stay (except for times when power supply has been cut at Nungwi). There is a wonderful rooftop terrace with a magnificient view and a very cozy garden (incl. a small pool). Owners are very dedicated and helpful in case of any problems or needs. All in all this hotel overexceeds the expectations in it's price category by far.

TanzaniaThere is no any bad points, but there is no amenities like shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, tooth brush....so don't forget to bring them when you stay here.
It's really near by beach. Staffs were very friendly and kind. The owner here is very nice person, helped me to put electric kettle in room. I love the room, cute garden, and lovely cats here.

Elena, the owner, is amazing! Both before we came and during our stay, she was a Godsend helping get us reservations at the top New Year's Eve party and then day we were leaving getting my husband replacement insulin for his diabetes. She was a lifesaver. All her team work hard to help in any way, special thanks to Nassar and Omar.

Czech RepublicEverything was great! Location is near the local restaurant and the beach. Shops and other restaurants are about 10min walk. Elena, the owner and her staff are really amazing:) Very positive environment and great people. Rooms are clean and the ladies are cleaning up every day. There is a small pool and common area with a rooftop terrace. Even if the weather was not the best we had a great time, organised different tours with the hotel and even prolonged our stay for two more nights. Elena organised the taxi for us in the really last moment with a very good price. Her team is just amazing, especially Nassar who made our stay even more funny and special! Thank you and hope to see you again!
