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.).

Conveniently located near shops - walking distance to restaurants. Unit was airy, neat & appealing. Lovely garden and pool view.

South AfricaI made a mistake with the departure date, Staff helped to accommodate the family supposed to be in on 28th and allowed us to stay one night in this unit. The family that was supposed to move in said that they are staying in an apartment of friends and that they are happy with the situation. The owner of this unit said I must refund the family which I agreed to do. The gentleman said he is not stressed and I can give him a cold beer and we call it quits. But the owner of unit 4 where they moved in insisted I pay her which I found odd because the family who were originally booked already paid but didn't pitch which means she cashed in twice. Anyway, I paid her the extra night with cleaning per immediate eft. But what I don't get is why nobody called me around 10:00 (which normally is the time to vacate) while we were the nature reserve to ask why we have not yet vacated. I was at the unit around 12:30 and even then nobody came to remind me that we should vacate. Only around 14:45 did the first calls and messages come through on my phone but unfortunately my phone was on silent and on battery saver. So the employees have not done their part to find out why our belongings were still in the unit. It was indeed a very odd feeling getting to the unit and all our belongings were somehow put in bags and suitcases like when someone gets evicted as the cleaning personnel were getting the apartment ready at 16:00 only for the newbies who were already on the property. A day earlier it was raining heavy and was leaking in the living room. I contacted the owner who said maintenance will sort it out when the rain stopped. Not sure if that was sorted. What I also found weird was that housekeeping was not included. When the toilet is flushing the water pipes makes a really loud noise. The bathroom door doesn't close properly on the first go. You have to do it in a very specific way. There were just 2 hooks to hang towels over to dry.
The location is great. The interior is modern. Free wifi was a bonus.

South AfricaDespite the rules, it was super noisy due to parties at the other units. The unit was stuffy, and the beds, my gosh... we could feel the springs. My back is not happy hence I am not happy.
The location is great.

South AfricaThe kitchen isn't well stocked, some extra kitchen tools would have been appreciated as the knives were blunt, and there is no can opener or cutting board hence it is recommended to bring your own. Cups and plates are mismatched and the pan and pot is hard to use as the food sticks to it. The fridge does not work properly and a lot of our food went bad as a result. The apartment has no Wi-Fi or a backup plan for loadshedding which was frustrating. The bathroom has a foul smell and the shower wasn't properly cleaned on arrival which was a big negative for us. The aircon in the living room has not been cleaned in ages and the ceiling fan in the living room does not work.
The apartment is tastefully decorated and has a stunning view over the garden and pool. The host is super friendly and provided us with a light for the kitchen as the power was out after a storm prior to our arrival which was highly appreciated. A cleaner comes in once during your stay. Linen was clean and the bedrooms were lovely with a much needed aircon and ceiling fans in each room. The balcony is beautiful with picturesque views of the garden and the large table is perfect for family meals overlooking the garden.
