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.).

In general, albeit I enjoyed my stay at Amohela Guesthouse, I am EXTREMELY UNHAPPY and have to put on record my displeasure pertaining to how I was treated on my last day, i.e. Wednesday, 09 July 2025 with my check-out. On Tuesday, 08 July 2025, when I enquired about the check-out time, I was made aware that the check-out time is 10H00. As I was travelling with my two (2) minor sons, one being only 6 years old, I delayed with a FEW MINUTES to vacate the room I booked as I was still busy packing both my sons’ stuff. The fact that the owner was visibly angry at my sons owing to me delaying a tad, left a bitter taste in my mouth. I was in the bathroom and I could hear my sons telling the owner that I am still busy dressing up. This was owing to the owner having told my kids twice that I was supposed to be out of the room I booked by 10H00. My kids then came running to me and pleaded with me to hurry up as the owner is visibly angry and they do not want us to get into trouble. This whole experience pertaining my check-out really changed my perspective about this establishment and my entire experience. This could have been handled way much better. I am acutely aware that the check-out time is 10H00. It was never my intention to stay a tad longer than I should or am allowed to. However, I think a little consideration and courtesy could have been extended to me. I felt like I was being evicted. This entire experience really left a bitter taste in my mouth. I was planning on going back to Amohela Guesthouse for my son’s 7th birthday on 16 August 2025. I will however not be doing that owing to the experience alluded to above. I think the owner could be a bit more understanding, flexible and accommodating. I literally just needed a few minutes extra to finish up everything without being literally chased away. ☹️ ☹️ ☹️
The property is nice, modern, fit for purpose and very clean. I like the fact that my 6-year old son could enjoy playing outside making use of the facilities available.

There was nothing not to like... The location and facility was just what we were looking for. Serenity and tranquility
Brigitte was an amazing host. She made our stay so comfortable. She was accommodating and understanding. We took apartment 2 which was attached to the entertainment room and that was the highlight of our stay...we played darts till late and there was activity for my 11yr sis. So everybody had something they wanted to do.. The rooms were fantastic. Comfy beds and clean baths. The kitchen was spectacular as it had everything. From salt to kitchenware, cutlery and your own coffee/tea station. Perfect for family of six. Brigitte tended to anything I needed. And the breakfast was of best service. The halaal option was vegetarian but it was so good, perfect for a holiday when you want your breakfast included. Some nearby malls is a bit of drive out and won't cater all halaal options for Muslims. I suggest bring extra food so you don't have to drive out. But regardless it's 100/10. I definitely will be coming back. Btw we loved the fruit salad and hash browns
