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 AfricaThis is honestly the best accommodation I have ever rented via booking.com - it is absolutely immaculate, and also conveniently located. So often places state they are "fully equipped", yet they are not - this had everything, and everything of the best quality. The host was extremely friendly and helpful, while at the same respectful of our need to be left alone. Will I return - absolutely without hesitation, and I will recommend it to anyone.

VietnamOur stay at this apartment was exceptional. The house is beautifully designed, with attention to detail evident in every corner, and boasts a breathtaking view overlooking Hout Bay. The location is ideal, just around 30-minute drive to downtown and Chapman's Peak, renowned for being one of the most picturesque drives in the world. Additionally, the proximity to supermarkets, a mall, and a variety of shops and restaurants enhances the experience. We highly recommend staying here!

United KingdomOnly minor points - the location being on the main road although great for accessibility there was some traffic noise and it felt a little removed from the beach. The bath in the master was on a step with high sides so made it abit tricky to get in & out if you have mobility issues
Good location for road trips around the cape, with secure parking. Very clean & welcoming. Johann was waiting for us on arrival and was very quick to respond when we had an issue with the sink.

NetherlandsThere was nothing not to like.
Johann was a great host, making sure we were taken care of and felt ocnfortable upon our arrival to Cape Town. The apartment is quite spacious and was very tidy and clean. The location is also very good just 2min away from the supermarket, restaurants and stores. If you walk 5min you can stroll on the beach. It is also a great base to explore Cape Town and surrounding areas as there is easy access to main driveways. Definitely recommend to stay here if you are wanting to explore Cape Town.

CanadaThere was nothing we didn't like.
Johann was an amazing host, with a warm greeting and lots of good suggestions. He also stayed in touch through our stay in case we needed anything. The apartment was a great place to relax and to tour around from. I thoroughly enjoyed the heated blanket on a particularly blustery day. Great location with all the bells and whistles. I loved starting the morning with a cup of tea while looking at the mountains and the sea.
