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 AfricaNothing to complain.
The unit was a self catering unit. It had the basic appliances for my needs. The host Mike was the best to date. He was absolutely pleasant, friendly and caring. A gentle soul that went beyond the obligations of a regular host. From offering to do your laundry, to assisting with fishing gear and giving you a detailed overview of the area. The best feeling is to get up in the morning to the seagulls singing and looking at the lagoon through your room window, is priceless.. Highly recommended and I will return.

South AfricaI couldn’t stay longer….
The location is superb, right on the river! Great views, incredibly calm and close to all amenities. The Highlight of the stay was Mike and Julia, they are the heart of the property and always go above and beyond to create an warm, welcoming environment that will make you wanna stay over again and again! They create a wonderful environment for anyone that’s visiting, you instantly become family and Mike ensure that you are at ease, familiar with your surroundings and sets the pace for a great experience. We were lucky enough to stay over NYE and Mike and Julia put together an amazing dinner for all of the guests and honestly, it’s so much more than you ever expect. Words cannot express how incredibly grateful we are to have met the Mike and Julia and stay over at their home away from home. Done take my word for it, book your stay asap!

South AfricaParking may be a bit cramped if all rooms are taken but just nitpicking here. Nothing to complain about
Beautiful views as advertised. Got some stunning sunsets from outside our room. Comfortable room and well equipped. Host was very friendly and always willing to help. He accommodated us when we arrived early and switched rooms after the first night before heading out for the day, made our lives so much easier.
