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 shower needed a deep cleaning, but otherwise, the place was very clean.
It was a very peaceful, next to hiking trails with beautiful scenery. Even though the property is shared with other people, the Jukebox felt very private. It was very neat and very comfortable, will definitely visit again.

IndiaThe sink and faucet in the bathroom need an upgrade. The size of the sink was too small. The hair dryer in one of the rooms was busted, and the hot air wasn't coming out properly.
The location was nice and peaceful.

South AfricaIf a fully equipped kitchen is provide,d, space should be sufficient to actually use it comfortably.
Riaan is a wonderful host . The accommodation was tastefully furnished and spacious excet for the kitchen area. The inside/outside fireplace and braai was fabulous and we spent much of our time sitting there, The scenery is spectacular from the accommodation unit.

South Africathere was only an electrical stove....a gas stove , just a 1 plate cadac would be amazing. loadshedding was terrible and at very inconvient times. i know it is not mont rouge's fault, but still, would be that extra mile that would have made the facility 10 out of 10
The caretaker welcomed us and gave a choice of the different rooms available. the bedding and bed was super comfortable. the location and views were amazing the caretaker supplied us with boiling water from a gas stove when loadshedding was on so we can have coffee - must have coffee ;-)

We had an absolutely amazing stay in the Juke Box. Riaan was so welcoming and went out of his way to meet our needs. He is a fantastic host. The electric blankets added to the luxurious setting and we enjoyed every amenity at the chalet. Looking forward to the next trip.

South AfricaUnfortunately, we had a lot of load-shedding, so a generator or solar would suffice. The shower was unfortunately dirty along the sides and under the shower door. The bath towels felt like paper, and weren't very comfy. In winter, I can imagine the unit getting very cold with no power for a heater etc...
Unit was very well situated at the foot of a beautiful mountain range. Warm welcome from the host, cosy little unit which was perfect for a couple for two nights. The bed was very cosy and warm.
