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 AfricaWhen we arrived, I had sent a WhatsApp msg to the owner on our day of arrival to let her know the time we were going to be check in, their check in is 12h00 PM, we arrived at 13h10 but the place was still not prepared, it was dirty, it took them 2 hours and 30 mins to prepare, we were not ok at all. I booked for 10 people 5 rooms, they were all not prepared. when we left we cleaned the place, even the lady who was working there was very shocked at how we left the place clean

South AfricaWhy is it called Uyolo Guest Lodge but the signboard outside is written something different? We spent so much time looking for it. Their contact number was off,we had no choice but to ask strangers on the streets if they knew the place and that is very unsafe. Yoh the young lady at the reception was very unwelcoming,rude and cheeky🥺
The place is beautiful inside The view was good also

South AfricaWhen my partner and I arrived at the lodge. They couldn't find our booking online. We called the owner numerous times and they didn't answer. We were then given an alternative room to use and not the one we had booked online. Later on the room we booked online was now available. Very unprofessional.
Nothing.

South AfricaI could not even get to stay in that place as the owner cancelled on Christmas day and i was going to use the place for rest on my way back from holiday in CT but i was stranded and had no accommodation until the 11th hour. Still awaiting my refund and that Naiddo lady is so rude.... She is the one who cancelled the booking but she wants to charge me a cancellation fee ...Booking.com needs to find another way to be contacted as i still await my refund.

South AfricaI book this guest house on line. But when i check on the map, there is no such name. I rove from 18:: to 22:00 looking for the place. When i call, all calls are on voicemail. If it wasn't about my sister who also book there i would have slept on the Street, the staff is shouting at me, the gates crashed my car, no security guards. Inside the room no toilets ad advertised.i have to share with other people the bathroom. The guest house is called uyolo guest house online but there is no such name in the buildings. . I was so disappointed and i am not only the person disappointed but my family and friends. There is no parking and tv was not playing. What a disgraced place. In port elizabeth ....nxa..i will never book any guest house any more. Only hotels for me from now on
Nothing is interesting. That guest house is a scam

South AfricaThe house was really very dirty, especially the kitchen. There is a communal kitchen for all residents in the house and 2 communal bathrooms to be shared by all. The only en suite bathroom is in the so called family room. I booked for 4 adults and 2 rooms, but the family room was given to us which is definitely not suitable for 4 adults. The website gave the impression that the room comes with a fridge, stove etc, giving the impression that the family room is part of an apartment. There was no water in the shower. The lights of the first floor tripped continuously which had nothing to do with load shedding. The door of the family room could not be locked from the inside. Wife code was incorrect. Only 2 bathrooms towels for 4 people. The head piece of bed was loose and had to be removed because of noisiness. No interest from the owner.
Tamzin, the manager, tried her best to attend to the numerous short comings and problems. She should be awarded a medal. Location is good. Rooms spacious.
