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 were small things that irritated us. There was a stoep area attached to our room it was dusty I took toilet paper and wipes off the chairs and table. The deck was also very dusty. The bathroom door gets stuck halfway so you have too push it hard to open or close it lol. Some area's of the hotel were a little untidy bit they had a sign saying Appologies so I guess that was okay.
The room and bathroom was clean. The cleaning lady was so very friendly she took us to the room and helping with whatever we asked. I didnt speak to the manager ones I think she walk past us and but I am not even sure. The checkin is a bit confusing because there wasn't a front desk. Just a office that said Private... We arrived a bit early so they manager wasnt their but the cleaner helped us settle as the manager left a note for her.

South AfricaNo air conditioning - not a problem since the weather was good when we visited - but can be problem in December. There is a moveable fan - a ceiling fan would be preferable. Ample parking on the premises but there is no fence/gate to secure the vehicles at night. We occupied two rooms. The one was twice the size of the other - but the price was the same. Not sure if we were "upgraded" on one room in which case we would be thankful.
Friendly staff. House was built in 1875 with lovely wooden floors and beautiful ceilings. Good breakfast. Good location. Comfortable beds.

United KingdomThe bed linen was clean and pristine but we had to clean inside fridge before using it. Would not want to leave any valuables in the room as did not trust locks or catches.
We needed accommodation close to the N2 as we had to leave v early am to catch flight next day. Amanda had given us a quiet room as I requested and we were able to leave without disturbing anyone or wasting time. The car was safely parked. The hotel served our purpose overnight with a fast morning departure so we were happy.

South AfricaIt’s old. The bathroom has some mold. It was very cold even though there was a very small heater. They were not able to really cater for a vegan breakfast or meal. Baked Beans and dry mushrooms on dry toast. No vegan milk. This can really be improved on as it’s so easy these days to make a decent vegan meals
