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.).

South AfricaBad from the beginning. Ring the gate bell. No answer. Call the number, uninformed and useless staff who seemed unaware of our booking. Wait 15 minutes for someone to come and open the gate for us. This person did not greet us, had no idea how to operate the property remotes and keys, and gave us very little information. Go into the unit and almost die due to the stench of damp - at least air out the unit before your guests arrive. No aircon (there was a fan so not a train smash), most of the mirrors were cracked/shattered, walls had more cracks than a plumber, one bin for the whole unit, bathroom sink was small and had only a cold tap and they only had 1-ply toilet paper!? The shower was something else, the tap only opened one way - hot - and the temperature could only be changed by turning the dial on the water heater (if you can reach as it was mounted high up), oh and the ceiling above the shower was mouldy. We booked elsewhere the first night and bailed early morning after phoning the number to find out where to hand back the keys. They asked no questions as to why we forfeited a night's stay. I DO NOT recommend this place.

South AfricaThe lack of communication was a significant issue during our stay. We experienced long waits for updates on Wi-Fi and water outages, and no one informed us about the situation. Additionally, the cleanliness of the place did not meet our expectations, as it was not cleaned daily as one would anticipate.
Location was perfect it was close to almost everything

South AfricaThe water from the shower was always cold. To be sent to another guest house while we booked for other one that was very unprofessional even the one that they sent us to have a problem with electricity and the other guests were making a lot of noise we never slept well. We booked Charles Court coz we wanted to be alone and that happened only for 3 nights out of 5 nights. I'm not happy at all .
The way Tshegofatso welcomed us was so amazing 👌 , she was always there when ever we need anything.

South AfricaEverything. Broken faucets in the bathroom, dirt shower walls with bird poop, cockroaches... The list is endless . No DStv.
Owner was honest even before we arrived that the place we booked was not the one advertised in booking.com, that it only accommodates only a couple n not a family so they took us to another place where the whole family will fit. Booking.com failed us by letting us believe we'll be staying in the guest house they advertised.

South AfricaThe place was not what I booked online. Nompumelelo Mkhwanazi scammed us and gave us a flat that we didn't like but couldn't move because it was late.. We arrived at the location but was told that the previous person has added a day so what the use to booking two weeks early if the place is taken? It was really not satisfing that we was told to Uber for ourselves to use the pool at the place we book because the one we were given didn't have a swimming pool. The place had no wifi, water or even pots or plates to eat like it was advised. I will recommend that no one must trust this place it not what they advertise

South AfricaThe main gate opens from the inside out. When we arrived, my husband parked in front of the gate while I phoned. We got such a big surprise when the gate started opening. Luckily, my husband reacted quickly.
Thank you the lovely sis Zama for an amazing two day stay. This was more than just a room, it was an apartment. Sis Zama literally thought of everything, from toothpaste in the bathroom to Netflix, DSTV, and Disney + streaming options. Whenever we visit Durban in the near future, this is where we'll be staying.
