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 at all
A peaceful and tranquil cabin situated right by a dam and surrounded by gorgeous karoo shrub land. You cannot help but unwind and watch the birds gather around the water's edge. A rustic feel with modern luxuries, the cabin was clean and very comfortable. Sunrises were to die for. Close to Oudtshoorn Town and other spots like the Cango Caves. I didn't want to leave!

It was a lovely stand alone wooden house. With a balcony facing the lake. It had a beautiful view on the lake and the birds.

South AfricaThe cottage wasn't ready for us when we got there although these things happen and it was rectified quickly, together with a bottle of wine to apologise, which was appreciated. We had to ask for little things like soap and towels - the rest was fine. It seems a tad run down and as if nothing has been spent on the upkeep for the past decade or so. Mosquito nets had some spots on them and a hole so it won't be very effective. The holes in the fireplace worried me as a snake could come indoors in the winter through the holes where the cement has fallen off. Bathroom needs a revamp with the shower area seeming a bit run down.
The setting and the views are incredible.I am sure it will be great during winter months.If you like nature this one is for you. I can see this working for a group of people who are budget conscious and who will enjoy the stoep area and indoor fireplace.

South AfricaHad to get Google to move the reference point so that one gets to the correct entrance road to the property. There are several maintenance issues in the unit that need attention. Lights out side that do not work, deck light fitting missing, taps that turn in the basin. These were minor issues, which we lived with. The AC that was not working was a huge issue though and kudos to Theo for his responsiveness to get that resolved especially at this time of year.
The Self Catering unit is if decent size and well equipped for that requirement. The staff were very responsive to fixing the issues we had with the AC.
