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 AfricaUnfortunately due to the location of the apartment, natural light was hard to come by making the rooms quite dark and cold. The ground floor created a lack of privacy due to the windows looking out into the parking lots. However, that cannot be helped. Whilst the decor was absolutely beautiful with many a unique touch, it made the bedroom feel a little pokey.
Location, amenities, cleanliness, safety. The dressing gowns were an awesome treat that we used every day!

IrelandWe stayed in dk villas Riverview for three nights at the tail end of our trip around The Garden Route, just before departing Cape Town and flying home. Staying in this property truly was finishing our trip on a high. This was, hands down, one of the most beautiful apartments we have ever stayed in, and the attention to detail throughout, was mind blowing. First impressions upon entering the property - the decor was stunning, it was so clean it was as if we were the first people to ever set foot in the place, and it smelled amazing! There was a true boutique hotel feeling to this apartment, with the added advantage of all the home comforts you would want while self catering. On a practical level, we couldn’t have asked for more. The apartment was generously kitted out, with modern and high quality appliances and equipment, the lounge area was really chilled out, and the bed was super comfortable. The property lends itself to an extended stay, a home away from home of sorts, and so, our only regret is in the brevity of our stay! Another important element for us was security, and this property was probably the most secure location we stayed in on our travels. Lastly, and most importantly, what really stood out to us, was our host, Johann. We have never had a more sincere welcome, and the level of professionalism was a breath of fresh air. Johann provided us, not just with a place to stay, but with an experience in its own right. Johann’s energy and vigour for the product he offers was palpable, and we were really made to feel welcome. It made a huge impact on us to be welcomed in the way we were, instead of the usual ‘key is in the lock box’ instructions. We were personally checked out at the end of our stay by Johann, which we also massively appreciated. What stuck with us also, was the humility in Johann actively asking us for constructive criticism on any aspect of our stay. We had absolutely none to give however!

South AfricaThe main bedroom was slightly smaller than anticipated.
The interior was spotless. The attention to detail on the finishings in each room was impeccable. It was comfortable and truly felt like a home away from home. The appliances were state of the art and every aspect of a comfortable stay was thought of by the hosts.

South AfricaWith the apartment being on the ground floor and quite close to the parking lot, our bedroom view is just that - the parking lot. However, it's a convenience if you're loading and unloading lots of luggage.
The decor is French Victorian inspired so it was beautiful. They've thought out every necessity to ensure one's comfort during your stay and the convenience of stores being a walking distance from the apartment earns an extra star. Also, we loved the complimentary bottle of champagne 👌🏾
