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 AfricaBedroom window blinds let in a lot of light at night. Car noise from road past the house. Decorative pieces on walls and glassware are a bit on the excessive side (can easily break stuff if not too careful or if staying with energetic small kids).
3 full bedrooms, and not 2 as per platform. A guard/caretaker on the property at night. Has every appliance and kitchen utensil/cutlery you can think off. Excellent patio/gazebo sitting area. The pics are seriously underselling this place (it is difficult to make sense of the property from the pics).

South AfricaI thought long and hard, and could not come up with anything negative. Whitehouse was definitely one of The Best guest houses I've even been at.
Everything was simply GREAT. Eli is a real asset: considerate, friendly and professional. He tended to our every need and we felt instantly at home. The house as well as the garden is immaculate, super clean and welcoming.

South AfricaThe road is a little noisy, but it is very central and the comfy beds make up for that.
The decor is beautiful! So much attention to small details. It is an old house that was converted, so it still has the old wooden floors and windows. So much charm.

South AfricaCan't think of anything...
The location of the property was in the right area where we wanted to stay to make our journey to Johannesburg pleasant. Very central, easy access with all amenities and close to the Rosebank area. But we were also in for a surprise not to be expected: The host was exceptional! We got some Glühwein on arrival to welcome us to cold Johannesburg. The assistance of the host and her staff during our stay was outstanding. Honestly, it is impossible to top that! It made our stay very easy and we will certainly even trying to schedule our next trip around the availability of this place, just to be back and enjoy it again... and again... and again...
