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 AfricaThere’s really nothing we would have changed. We hope to come back again soon.
Beautiful little apartment, with lovely sea views in a quiet neighborhood equipped with everything we could need. We love the proximity to the beautiful swimming beach down the road and the lovely garden to look onto. The flat has great wifi and a very comfy bed. Been back twice now and thoroughly enjoy every time we stay here. We also had a water outage due to a burst pipe in the neighborhood which was out the properties control, and John made sure we had drinking water and water to flush the toilets during the outage.

United KingdomNo washing machine but this wasn't a problem as you can get laundry done in Simon's town (5 min drive)very cheaply.
Beautifully furnished appartment with a homely feel and great sae view. John, the host was responsive and on hand for any queries but appartment still very private. Great location, very quiet but in striking distance of many nice restaurants and couple of lovely sandy beaches just at the bottom of the road.

South AfricaCould use better coffee making facilities (eg a Nespresso machine)
John, our host, was welcoming, yet retreated after handing over the keys leaving us to feel as if we were in our own private space. The cottage itself is light, clean & spacious and the bed was super comfortable with really good quality linen. The location was nice & quiet with a lovely (if a little limited) sea view

United KingdomThe only thing that would have been useful was a washing machine but we understand it's probably a space issue
We had the most wonderful stay here, John is such a lovely and helpful host. We had everything we needed for our week long stay. Stunning views, the most incredibly comfy bed and feather bedding which just excelled our comfort. It is such a homely flat, whilst also feeling luxurious. You can tell the love and care that has gone into the place. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and very much look forward to our next opportunity to do so!

South AfricaWe loved everything! The one issue we did encounter was the shower drain. It drained very slowly and flooded the shower on a few occasions, but we actually found that it was just the angle of the shower rose, which we angled straight down into the drain, and then it drained perfectly after that.
My husband and I came here for a weekend away from the city to get some peace and quiet and that's exactly what we got. A beautifully decorated and kitted out room with everything we needed to entertain friends, as well as a peaceful neighbourhood and a beautiful view to the garden and ocean beyond. The host, John, was very friendly and helpful as well as the area being in walking distance to a beautiful swimming beach down the road all made our experience a really great one. Can't wait to come stay here again, soon!
