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 AfricaThe confirmation email could be more clear about where to check in, at the guesthouse next door. We were also lucky to get the best containers around the little lounge area
What a great find. You need to check in at the guesthouse nextdoor, i think its called the Farmhouse, that took us a bit of figuring out because the email wasn't clear. Once we realised that it was all brilliant. The check in person was warm and friendly and walked us to our accomodation, unlocked for us and explained where things were, she was super helpful and friwndly. We were very lucky to get one of the 3 places that ha e a shared garden area, delightful with deck chairs, braai, and slightly quirky design. This overlooks the lagoon with great views. The container accomodation was bright and clean, good quality white linen, great layout so it felt spacious, half an hour of generator during loadshedding at 10pm which was helpful to get my phone charged. The loos and showers are very clean, with white hand towels and soap, cleaned daily. All in all a great experience for a really low rate. Thank you! PS. Definately take a walk along the boardwalk infront of the property towards Sharks Bay, the views are stunning.

VietnamThe first pod I checked into, there was an issue with the lock on the door. But luckily they were able to move me to another pod while they repaired the other lock.
Location is wonderful. Close to running/ biking trails. Near Shark Bay. Great spots for swimming and any other activity you might want to do.

South AfricaThe only negative is the container door of the room does bang a bit in the wind, but after two hours your mind completely tunes it out.
This is a great spot if you're just popping in solo or with a friend and looking for a place to leave your belongings and cool your beers while you explore. The room has everything you need to live comfortably for a few days, the toilets and shower cubicles are clean and you have a view of the lagoon on your doorstep. Location is excellent as you are a five-minute drive from either the waterfront area with a variety of eateries that are extremely well priced, or the entrance to the National Park. Will definitely be my go-to spot to stay when I visit that side again.

United KingdomGenerator is a little noisy when running
Incredible value for money! The cabins are basic but clean, spacious and pretty well equipped with cooking facilities and a fridge. The communal shower and toilet facilities are also good. A decent location slightly out of town but with a great view. The restaurant at the Farmhouse next door was also excellent and the staff were all friendly and polite.

South AfricaCan get cold at night, but there is a heater.
Convenient to use as a base to explore the surrounding areas. Not far from the West Coast National Park, and the West Coast Fossil Park. Paternoster, St. Helina, Velddrif, Saldana and other interesting places are not far. Safe parking and clean and tidy, well maintained. Staff was friendly. Lovely views. In the early morning, the mist rolls in.

South AfricaSometimes the traffic could be a little noisy, but that is definitely not the venue's fault. Maybe a little bedlamp next to the bed would be a good idea to enable reading at night.
Everything was exactly as the photos showed. It was compact yet comfortable. I really enjoyed the view, and was able to relax under the shaded grass area. The fact that the excellent hotel restaurant, bar and swimming pool were just next door was an extra bonus.

South AfricaI stayed there for about a week last year. The only thing was the noise of the generator by the gate which was always on. But the night I stayed, the generator tuned off completely at the end of loadshedding, and wasn't even in the idling mode. Nice and quiet. I wish I could have stayed longer.
