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):
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.).

United KingdomIt’s up on a bit of a hill, which means it has a steep driveway (others seemed to have issues with it but not too much of a problem for us) but then their are stairs to reception and then further stairs up to the rooms. So luggage dragging can be tough. However, Stim helped us with our bags and he had big strong arms! Because it’s up on the hill, it gets great views over the ocean where we saw Humpback Whales splashing in the morning! So I’d take the hill and the stairs for that view any day!
The value for money in this beautiful area. Whilst it’s not the most modernised place, it has all it needs for a comfortable stay at such a great price. The staff (mainly Stim, as I called him!) were warm and welcoming with a wicked sense of humour!

South AfricaThe driveway is quite steep. Too many stairs going up to the house. The room description on booking.com was misleading. I chose the room with a private pool, thinking it was an actual private pool only accessible from my room as described on the app, however, it was a communal pool. Pictures are very different from the actual property. I also felt it was overly priced for a guest house that's quite old.
I liked the view. And Breakfast was good. Host was really nice.

South AfricaWould have appreciated WIFI details and bottled water in the room and a smart TV, but these are insignificant in relation to the whole.
Really enjoyed my stay, even though it was short. Zethu, Khetiwe and the rest of the staff were so wonderful and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. The view from my room was just perfect, the breakfast spread was more than I could ask for. It was very easy to ask for anything I needed or wanted to know. Perfectly located - I safely walked to the beach, to restaurants for lunch and dinner, to the gelato shop, to the spa - it was lovely. Next time I'll go for a whole week!
