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.).

Verified reviewThe lady who met us with the keys was very polite. The place was cleaned daily and it was spacious. It is a room appended to the main house but the owner stays out of your way. It was neat and tidy, cleaning was done daily.
There is no microwave and I would have preferred to pay by card. The owner can invest in a cheap POS machine such as a Yoco. We also only got one tea bag per day.
Thank you for your reply/ the owner is not close to meet guest We stopped card payment as we choose to do self check in on times when geust pay in advance.. Aplogies about tea - will talk to staff. As for microwave, its not self cater states clear when u book

Verified reviewI had a great stay here! The place was very clean, the bed was big and super comfy, and the bathroom was a great size — big enough for two people to use at the same time without feeling cramped. Other than that, everything was really lovely and I’d happily stay again!
There were a few kids around who were a bit noisy at times and occasionally kicked a ball near our window, but it didn’t bother me as it was the weekend and school holidays, so completely understandable. If I had to give one bit of feedback, it would be that there were no wine glasses in the room, which would’ve been a nice touch. Also, the TV connection to the streaming device was a bit faulty and kept flickering, so we couldn’t really use it.

Verified reviewThe apartment is on the top floor and offered lovely views. It was fun watching the bunny bounce around the lawn below. The room is quite spacious. Lovely double-shower bathroom.
There was quite a bit of noise travelling through from the downstairs. The room needed a little tea table with chairs. There is no seating area in the room besides the foyer. The room is fine for a sleepover but nothing more. There are minor finishes that would make the room stunning such as upgrading broken switches.

Verified reviewWe loved the size of the room, the bed was very comfortable, everything was clean, the mountain view from balcony was lovely..
Faulty television, kept getting a dark screen while tv playing, no door on bathroom is a big no, the fact they cant have just a microwave, with some useful utensils like glasses and 2 plates. The fact there was space inside the property for our car to park, but we were asked to park outside, the fact we were not informed that neighbours are busy with renovations and will be making a noise.. The fact the owners didn't find it necessary to even greet us or welcome us.. Just the maid came out..

Verified reviewProperty, clean, and beautiful bathroom. However, small details count, i.e., property has a balcony but no table and chairs to enjoy the mountain views. The room had a fridge, but no bottle water was supplied. Lovely coffee machine with only one pot each... everyone doesn't like pot coffee, so a variety of coffee and tea would have been appreciated. Pls make sure the tea bags are covered and not open a health hazard. Coffee provided but no milk supply. No drinking glasses provided. Hope these comments will help you for future bookings. Tks Hendri,

Verified reviewPlace is clean.
Parking and living your car outside of the yard. No ironing board and iron. Changing of bedding you must remind or request them its unfair. Children in the yard and at the bottom house or home making noise most time(not quiet place). Limited freedom as a vacation place.. Always unnecessary rules leach and every day. The landlord is so unfriendly. No wifi tv not playing. Been pressurized and reminded that 10:00 checkout time. You must request or remind them that they must change your bedding and towels that we were using 2days. Bath or beach towels that they provide are so dull and very dry. Cleaning of room is done on request that's is unfair.. Unfriendly owner.
We assure you next time please book somewhere where u allowed to break rules make a noise and not follow your booking instruction- mayb you will be happy. The above is not true.

Verified reviewComfortable bed and clean room, but lacking in service and communication. Suitable for a quick overnight stay, but not for a longer visit
My stay was decent, but lacked warmth. - Minimal communication from staff (only received keys from a helper) - Lack of basics (toothbrush glass, milk, microwave)
Thank you for your review, if you read before you book its not self cater with all trimmings, for what you pay you cant expect more. Communications- where sent on app and via whatsapp.

Verified reviewClean, neat and tidy
No toilet door, hosts are not yet in tune with demands of travellers. Advertising on website not accurate, showed a sea view, no sea view, showed a bottle of wine with 2 glasses, no glasses(no wine😁).
So sorry it never shows sea view For the rate you pay you cant expect wine and glasses. Maybe next time pay more and you book into a place that will give u more .
