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.).

SpainThe location looks close to the airport but it’s actually a private jet lane; the commercial airport is 20min away by car and there is nothing to get you there: no shuttle, no taxis, no uber, absolutely no transportation. Everyone there is being picked up by their game lodge; had we known, we would have asked for airport pickup. Unfortunately our apartment didn’t match the photos on booking. The owner quickly changed us to a better one, but it was missing a pair of towels. The water didn’t come out of the shower in the morning, apparently because of local restrictions. Would’ve been good to know too.
Donna, the owner, is a ray of sunshine and did everything she could to make us comfortable.

South AfricaIt was noisy There's a speed hump in front of the gate, when cars pass there the hump made noise. There were some helicopters at night not sure if they were monitoring poachers or what exactly, they were also making noise. Lastly, the goods train as well, in the early hours of the morning. It made noise. I know that the cause of noise is beyond Mayor Manor control. However, Maya can address the speed hump issue to make it a little bit better.
Everything was well set for us. We were happy

South AfricaThere are no curtains on the glass doors, the "lodge" is in a residential estate so technically you cannot go on a weekend away to this place, you basically go and sit in someone's house.

South AfricaHonestly speaking I feel like it was false advertising. There is no swimming pool on the lodge, you have to drive to go swim. As for activities the contact numbers that Louise gave us just goes straight to voicemail. I drove 5 hours for nothing. We were not even allowed to play Music.

South AfricaWhen booking, the facilities were not clearly indicated which caused some confusion. The gate code given did not allow us entry or exit so we had to ask assistance from other residents both times which was a little frustrating.
Location is close to town and unit had everything you could need for a short stay.
