How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified review* the proximity to our venue for the event * the layout of the house * the comfy beds * friendliness of host, Amanda * ease of access to the property upon arrival
* rooms were not adequately prepared upon our arrival (tea/coffee in the rooms was not filled up, bath mat not present) * shower was either boiling hot or chilly - couldn't get a happy medium. Luckily, I enjoy a hot shower, so not much to worry about there. * it would have been nice to have a meet-and-greet with walk-through upon arrival.
Thank you so very much for staying with us.

Verified reviewAmanda was a great host, full of smiles and great conversation. I enjoyed the quietness of the room when everyone was away. Great location and very safe. There is a cafe' just down the road, if you need something to eat, shopping centre's and the Mall close by.
The commune type of setup, the noise was not that bad as well and the great part was that during the day it was nice and quiet.
thank you very much much. x

Verified reviewThe place was nice and clean. The 2 rooms we did manage to get were beautiful and very clean. Well furnished. Loved the decor. Beautiful bathrooms as well. Cannot fault the place. Our overall experience was not good due to factors explained under what we did not like.
All outside lights were switched off, and we struggled to find our way in the dark with cellphone lights. Actually injured my ankle. The place has 3 rooms. One room was occupied by a long stay guest who took over the entire fridge in the kitchen. It was full of half eaten food and other groceries. The 2 rooms we had, had no space for our items in the fridge. The one room had a tiny fridge that could not fit items for 6 people. We booked 3 rooms but were notified it was a booking.com mistake and there were only 2 rooms available. We could not find something close and had to proceed with our booking. My husband and I slept in the Managers flat because no one else wanted to - that fridge was also full. A 2nd fridge could fit some water and cooldrinks. It was an uncomfortable bed. Difficult to sleep between someone's private things/ shoes/ cords and cables. There is no staff, so we struggled to find the flat in the dark at the back side of the property with a (not so nice view) of a washing line and other stuff. It was frustrating. If we had the 3 rooms we paid for our experience would have been better as the 2 rooms our kids and my granddaughter occupied were beautiful. My husband and I had a terrible stay. There is no one ensuring that all guests have space in the communal fridge.

Verified reviewThe owners were friendly and available to switch off outside light at night. Place is in a convenient, good location. The shared lounge, kitchen and verander between the 3 rooms is spacious, although the stove top was cracked. The accommodation is better suited if all 3 rooms are booked out by a travelling group rather than individuals or couples.
The shared walls between rooms are thin and therefore you can hear the people in the next door room. Provided linen and towels, and the mattresses, could be of better quality for the price you pay per night. Room 1s door and only window look out onto the car port. It's fine, but feel that the overall quality was below standard for the cost.
