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 AfricaIt is a pity that it is on the main street but the closed shutters and heavy curtains did help towards making the street noise less noticeable.
We unfortunately did not have the breakfast. Minette was a charming host who made our stay in Paarl an exceptional experience as we were celebrating my husband's birthday. She advised us about what to do, which wine estate we may enjoy visiting and where to eat. There were garden furniture under a tree or seating on the 'stoep' for us to enjoy the lovely evenings.

United KingdomThe noise from the main road can get a bit load, but is quiet late at night so can get some sleep. Breakfast was cold food only as was put into your fridge the night before in your room. Was OK but not what we expected.
The room looks like it did on line. Our host gave us some great recommendations of local places to visit and eat. Loved siting on the veranda watching the world go by

The property is quaint, very clean and had everything we needed for an overnight stay. The location was great as we were attending a wedding at Bakenhof Wedding Venue. The host is extremely friendly and helpful and immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable. She makes the most amazing rusks!! Breakfast was simple but had delicious muesli and yogurt and a bread roll and cheese! Thanks for an awesome stay.

South AfricaWe were disappointed that we booked two rooms as the main room we booked had a queen bed and also had a single bed with an extra pull out mattress which meant all 3 of us girls could share the room, which we did. It would have been helpful if we knew about this information before booking an additional room so that we could have saved costs. I forgot to let the owner know that the hairdryer plug didn't fit in any of the plugs provided - it needed a special adaptor which was not provided.
The bedrooms were tastefully decorated. We loved the small touches i.e. rusks for coffee and tea and the breakfast provided in the fridge for the morning (croissant with ham and cheese, yogurt and muesli, and fruit juice).

South AfricaHonestly there was nothing, we loved everything. Id only say to people with big cars that the parking area is a bit tight but can still get in and out, Minette is also there to help if needed.
Minette was an exceptional host as soon as we arrived, we were greeted with so much warmth and kindness. The rooms were incredibly spacious and equipped with every home comfort, the beds were so comfy we slept through the entire night and woke well rested. we had the two rooms at the front which also included a beautiful stoop with lots of comfy seating to relax and a dinning table that we could enjoy our breakfast at. the breakfast is delivered the night before and put in the fridge supplied in the rooms. the breakfast consisted of fresh fruit, muesli, yoghurt, home made rusks and a baked good. we also had juice, tea and coffee. it was wonderful waking up and having breakfast in our own time and leisure. On arrival Minette also told us about the area and local spots for us to visit aswell as places to eat. she also offered to book a reservation at any restraunt we wanted aswell as offer drop off and pick up if we wanted to drink. she is an incredibly sweet hostess and we felt very at home. we also loved Molly the resident dog who always welcomed us in the morning and when we came back from any travels and was always eager for a cuddle and play time. In all we loved every moment and will be sure to come again!
