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 AfricaThe breakfast options were so limited! We could order from a set menu (very limited options) and we could have buffet styled toast, muffins, cereal, fruit. The cereal was such a disappointment. I had rice crispies but it was either old or some cheap brand because it didn't go snap crackle and pop lol. The coffee was terrible, my muffin was sticky and did not have a good taste at all. We left without finishing our breakfast 😞
Lovely, clean rooms. Everything looked like it was well maintained. The view was amazing. We stayed in the rooms right at the back so all we saw was nature.

NetherlandsThe water supply gave some brownish water om the jacuzzi style bathtub. The swimming pool was very cold (more sunshine necessary :-)). More pastties would further improve the excellent breakfast.
The lodge is conveniently located along the highway. It has a nice forest and cabin set up. There is a hiking trail starting at the lodge. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff.

Although it is not a five star lodge, we surely will stay there again. The staff were so friendly. The breakfast excellent. The location next to the highway but it felt like on a farm. I can recommend this place.

United KingdomThis property needs some serious TLC and does look run down. There were cracked tiles throughout the floor of the accommodation and curtain tassels etc were missing and just laid on the side with no effort to fix. There was a braii on the balcony that had a huge hole in the grill plate. We told Reception staff and they didn't care. On the 3 occasions that we nipped into Reception; staff were quite uncaring and very unhelpful on 2 occasions. One lady however was just brilliant and gave us local info etc. The fire in the accommodation was also completely broken and unusable. We were also annoyed that there are safes in the room but were told that Management no longer allow guests to use these. We needed to be able to put valuables away so resorted to hiding our valuables under the bed and refusing room service for our stay. The pool was pretty but very cold and just full of leaves (I appreciate that it's in the middle of the forest but didn't see staff clean this).
We stayed 3 nights in the honeymoon suite and it was extremely reasonable for the length of our stay. We had 2 early mornings and were leaving before breakfast was served. We told the staff and they kindly made us a pack up lunch to take with us which was really nice. The restaurant staff were really friendly and although the food served in the restaurant is quite simple food, it was very yummy and also very reasonably priced. We also loved how quiet it was in our accommodation. Tsitsikamma village is a ten minute drive down the road and if you like lots of activities then this is perfect for you. We did the canopy tour ziplines, the eezi scooter tour through the forest, had a yummy chocolate milkshake in the 60s diner and had a stonefired pizza as well. Great location for activities. In summary, the location is great and the price of food and accommodation is very reasonable. If you can look past the need for a refurb and broken items in the rooms and you spend your days outside of the accommodation then this is for you.
