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 StatesThe road into the accommodations from the entry gate was a big problem for us in our small and low rental car. It is very rocky so we had trouble driving it and were concerned it could cause undercarriage damage. We limited our trips in and out and warned our visitors. Awesome accommodation and area if you have a bigger vehicle. Also the upstairs bedroom has stairs that are deeper between each step than usual. Not the best for older guests.
The location was perfect for our stay. The view of the mountains was lovely and it was quiet and serene. It was an excellent location for access to our tour of Sani Pass. Amy, the owner was very helpful and friendly. Great location to have my family come and visit.

South AfricaI was little disappointed that there was not a washing machine as was indicated, but it was not a train smash at all. Krissi said she could was a load if I want to, but there is a wonderful laundromat in Underberg. It was stated that cell phone reception was not great and that there is no WIFI, but we would have loved to have WiFi.
This accommodation is the best farm & pet friendly accommodation that we have experience! This unit is well equipped and the pet's also have their towels,, bowels and blankets! We loved the very comfortable King size bed. DSTV was great for the evenings and of course the games was great. I loved that there was an oven. It was wonderful to have a large fenced in grass garden for the pets! Good location to experience the Midlands. We even drove the Sani pass! Krissi is a wonderful host, she even put flowers in the unit and doggie biscuits to make us feel welcome. We will definitely come back!

South AfricaThe oven was not working which was disappointing. The property needs to be inspected thoroughly before guests arrive, i.e. one lamp in the bedroom needed a new globe, the lighter did not work but thankfully we had some matches with us.
