Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

South AfricaThe kitchen is a bit outdated and some of the furniture. Limited crockery and cooking utensils. There are also two other people living on the property, so there was a sense of lack of privacy.
The backyard! Beautiful for a large family with kids, the grass was green and well taken care of and the pool was well maintained. The rooms had their own bathrooms which is very convenient for a big crowd as it eases and reduces ‘getting ready’ time compared to having a shared bathroom. It was so close to many shopping centres and malls literally a walk away or a 5 minute drive!

South AfricaProperty could use abit of upkeep and the floors were abit dusty. Despite this, all our basic needs were met and we were comfortable.
We informed the host of our arrival prior to our time and they were ready to receive us with the keys and house rules. We had the entire house to ourselves; no other listing could match (or come close to) the price for a place to host 7 adults and a baby. Each bedroom had its own shower & toilet. The hosts were very friendly and caring, responded quickly to messages and accommodated our special requests.

South AfricaIt's seems that it's still being worked on and will surely be great for now there are no dressing tables, mirrors,and the heated blankets cannot reach the plug points. Little stuff like a gas heater with no gas,no towel rails or counters in the bathrooms but definitely manageable. Thanks
Staff was very helpful and friendly. It's a private and safe house.

South AfricaBathrooms in the rooms could have been slightly bigger and an oven would have been nice. Other than that everything was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We arrived earlier than expected and the host accommodated us with an earlier check in which was great. The rooms were very nice exactly as seen on the photos. Very safe neighborhood. Older house but very well maintained. 3 of the 4 rooms had an ensuite bathroom with the basic amenities needed. This house has almost everything you would need when travelling with a family. The host made a point of asking to meet which was a first for me. Very friendly host as well as the caretaker. Both really went out of the way to accomodate us with the earlier check in and even the check out process was done very efficiently. Would really recommend this property to anyone travelling to Alberton. Definitely a very nice stay with shops and medical facilities not even 500m from the property. Big bonus especially when travelling with kids.

South AfricaVery poorly kept property. No bins in the kitchen and bathrooms. There were no mirrors in the bedrooms. No dressing tables, hairdryers or convenient plug points. The bedrooms were supplied with 1 bath towel and 1 hand towel which makes no sense for a couple sharing a room. The ironing board was broken. The bathrooms are just too small with shower panels missing. half toilet rolls in each bathroom. The kitchen has broken cupboards and really dirty inside the cupboards. Wall and tiles are really untidy with fixtures missing. There was lots of ants everywhere.
The location was good, close to Alberton city.

South AfricaThe bathrooms were not cleaned properly. Found hair on and around the toilet. The house needs some TLC. Some of sheets on beds had stains. The rooms with added bathrooms are cramped up to fit in a toilet and shower in each room and moving around in rooms are difficult.
Friendly and helpful home owners. Clean white towels. Close to Alberton Rugby Club (900m) for an event

South Africa1) There is a R500 deposit payable on arrival which is not stated in the listing on booking.com from the owner. 2) Lovely place but if you want complete privacy this is not the place. Staff just walk into the house, they literally just open the front door and back door and walk right in and do what they need to. Not a fan of that as I really like my privacy and would appreciate when booking accomodation on a reputable site to atleast get some privacy. 3) Even tho the advert says WHOLE HOUSE. They didn't specify the terms and conditions of that. If you book 4 rooms for 4 adults directly through booking.com, you expect there to be 4 rooms for 4 adults, which in this case would be the whole house. That's not the case here. We were 4 adults and 3 rooms they locked the 4th bedroom and bathroom opposite that room. Can't understand why when on the listing it says whole property. would be nice to know all the correct things about booking this place on their listing.
Beautiful home. Friendly staff. Well kept property. Smoke free property.

South AfricaThere was only 2 forks, so the cutlery needs some small tlc and the yard is still in construction... some building material, unfinshed swimming pool project... and it needs a electric fence for safety. And maybe a braai area. But i think it will be a great place to stay when they are finish.
Security camera's was in place for safety and the TV is smart tv's
