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.).

United KingdomThere was a problem with condensation occurring on the floors throughout the apartment during our stay. We were asked by the cleaner to leave the air conditioner on at 17 degrees to prevent this from happening. As a result of this both my hubby and I developed a cold, which made our holiday very uncomfortable for a few days. We were not happy about this.
Excellent apartment, with great views. Clean, spacious, and very modern.

South AfricaThe Oceans Apartment front desk staff were not professional and warned my friend that I that we could not swim using bikinis and that they will watch us on the cctv. They advised that they were instructed on this from their Manager. We felt awful after this experience, spoke to the host and Raddison staff who were shocked that we were informed this. Raddison managers informed me that there is no such rule. We were then later apologised to, but it just ruined my day and we didn’t swim on that day. There was no accountability, outcome or sincerity from the Oceans Apartment Staff.
This might be one of the best accommodations in Umhlanga. My best friend and I spent 3 nights at this apartment and we were blown away with how beautiful the apartment is. It was tastefully decorated and had all the necessary crockery and appliances to cook up a storm. I enjoyed cooking and having breakfast on the balcony, I loved the luxurious, comfortable bed and appreciated the house keeping services-who was exceptional. The host was responsive, pleasant and provided detailed instructions for arrival and check-in. I hope to be back soon!

South AfricaThere was no notice of when there’s load shedding, we had to have a cold shower, the owner was blunt with his messages to us. There was no clear instructions that towels are not provided and will only be washed after 5 days! it’s shocking that towels must be used for 5 days before it is washed and replaced.
The property was neat
