Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 AfricaBed was a tad soft for us, but of course preferences vary. Pillows were a little too bouncy! The breakfast was excellently cooked though it was chilly on the terrace. Overall, though, we were satisfied.
Liked the light, comfortable room, and the fresh milk! It was in a perfect location for our function, and the neighbourhood is quiet and safe.

GermanyOur time in Durban was already shaping up to be special, but this wonderful accommodation turned it into something unforgettable. It was the perfect base for our coastal adventures – comfortable, clean, and so thoughtfully equipped. First, let’s tick the essentials: Spotlessly clean? Check. Cozy beyond words? Double check. The kind of breakfast that makes you want to start your day slower just to savor every bite? Oh, absolutely! The in-room fridge was a delightful bonus – not only was it stocked with milk for our beloved tea and coffee breaks, but it also doubled as the perfect storage for our snack arsenal. But what truly sets this gem apart are the breakfasts that feed more than just your body. The conversations we shared over the table were nothing short of magical. Every morning brought a fresh dose of inspiration, filled with captivating stories, thoughtful insights, and – most importantly – top-tier recommendations that turned our short trip into a masterpiece. Thanks to these nuggets of local wisdom, we discovered culinary treasures, hidden gems, and crafted an itinerary that felt less like a plan and more like destiny unfolding. If you’re looking for a place that feels like a warm, welcoming home away from home, where all your needs are met – and the perfect starting point for exploring Durban’s treasures – this is it!

South AfricaWhen I got opened my bed to get in some type of insect came running at me, thank Goodness they had bug spray also I couldn't get a late check out neither would they just let me pack my bags and just wait a bit. Till I could leave and even when I checked out while waiting for my Uber the guy had me stand outside on the road even though it was still a few minutes before check out. That is what put me off. If not for this incident I would maybe have rebooked in future. Though it has left me with a bitter taste who charges that fee and let's the guest wait in the road for a Uber.
The service was out standing, the breakfast good, the rooms were comfy.
