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.).

United StatesMy room had only a bathtub with a short spray hose to shower yourself while sitting in the tub, if you weren't taking an actual bath. I'm not sure if the other units have the same setup. The pool area looked lovely but it seemed that it was undergoing cleaning while I was there so I did not use.
Clean, quiet and comfortable location. Very serene just as the name implies. Nicely located with nearby access to everything. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, doing their best to make sure you're comfortable. Richard was helpful above and beyond with everything that I needed including very early morning departure. The housekeeping was great and kept the room clean.

South AfricaI think they need to work on the interior decoration of the rooms. Add mirrors in the bedroom like over dressing table or closet doors. Also, to add dstv as not all the guests might have Netflix subscription.
I loved the location of the guesthouse , its far from the noisy crowd yet close to the amneties or necessary facilities. The garden at the guest house is breath taking very well maintained. Also Richard was very helpful, an outstanding host.

South AfricaThe room we got had no wall or divider between the bedroom and bathroom / toilet area. It’s an open plan set up. The breakfast was quite terrible. The layout of the breakfast spread is not appealing to the eye. A clean white table cloth is a must on the tables.
Very peaceful overall it was a great stay. Friendly staff. Abraham was a great host

South AfricaIf the property can at least serve breakfast to limit going in and out of the property to go buy food and snack, or maybe if they can have a canteen.
The care taker (Abraham) was so good to us and gave us an excellent service and ensuring we were well taken off, the place is also an ideal spot for a quick getaway from home in order to relax your mind with exquisite amenities and finished, spacious rooms
