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.).

South AfricaIt was a very cold weekend, and the open fire was in the bedroom so not great for my asthma. The electric fire did not work so we did light the fire one night, it was a bit smoky. Needs one or two things in the kitchen and no stove, just two ring burner and microwave. Too cold to braai. Don't think I saw one, although there is a fireplace grate on the stoep in a space which is suitable for a braai
Peter was a very friendly and informative host. It's on the edge of town, slightly Bohemian and very Green which we respect and try to be. Parking outside our tiny cottage was easy. We were comfortable overnight but not there much in the day as there is quite a lot to do in Prince Albert. Recommend the Lazy Lizard cafe especially.

South AfricaThink the entrance from the road needs a re think because it detracts from the accommodation. Some folk may draw the wrong conclusion before they have even seen the place.
Was a quiet rustic , artistic and authentic Karoo experience, very spacious 2 bed house.

South AfricaThe property needs some TLC. The bedding felt quite worn out. There were dirty glasses in the kitchen and the surrounding area was quite noisy.
The bathroom was clean and it was situated on an olive farm.

SwedenIt’s on the edge of town which is poorly lit at night, so you probably need to drive in to bars and restaurants, even though it’s not very far.

United KingdomLoved everything. Knob broken for the fan in one of the bedrooms.
It was the rustic farmhouse experience we wanted. Friendly reception. Clean. A house with soul. Sat outside 'till late on the homemade love chair to look at the stars. Saw snake trail in the sand the next morning. Forgot my koeksisters in their brand new container in the fridge which means I'll be back. Baie dankie. Die regte ondervinding vir die Karoo

South AfricaThe kitchen was not well equipped, the crockery and cutlery is old and mismatched. Some of the dishes were dirty, from previous guests use. The swimming pool was green and not usable (would've been a huge benefit during this hot season)
The apartment is on the outskirts of town and have lovely views of the surrounding mountains. The host did leave ice and firewood for us when we informed him that we would arrive after the shops were due to close.

South AfricaCan’t think of anything we didn’t like. The only thing maybe is the location is a bit out of town. The pool was dirty, but it is an old pool, the water probably comes from an old bore hole.
Old farm house feel, was amazing. How many stories that old house could tell. Peaceful and quiet. Really enjoyed our stay as here as a family.

South AfricaThe reception/arrival area was a little daunting and we thought we were in the wrong place as it is on the outskirts of town. We were actually checking google to see if we were in the right place when a young man popped out of nowhere to walk us to the accommodation and let us in. So we can't really comment on the staff as we saw the shy young man for all of 2 mins and he said 5 words :)
Very quaint old house, we were very comfortable there and had everything we needed. Very much like staying in the family's old farm house. Very quiet and peaceful.
