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 AfricaWhile I didn’t mind tidying up my room daily, it would have been helpful if basic cleaning supplies, such as a broom and mop, were provided, especially for longer stays like mine (5 nights). Additionally, there was no designated place for garbage disposal, so when the one supplied got full I had to load some rubbish into my car to dispose of elsewhere. There was also no twin plug adapter in the room (though I admit I didn’t request one, which likely would’ve been provided), so I ended up buying one the next day to charge my phone and laptop. Another minor inconvenience was the single light switch that controlled all the lights, including the bathroom. Its location, far from the bed, made it tricky to turn the lights on in the dark without fumbling around or opening a curtain first. It’s worth noting that the above inconveniences may be specific to my room. Despite these minor issues, my stay was overall enjoyable and could be enhanced with a few simple adjustments.
I truly enjoyed my stay. I appreciated the host’s relaxed approach, allowing guests their space while being readily available if needed. The location is fantastic, it is conveniently close to the Gateway Shopping Centre. My room was clean upon check-in and was equipped with all the basic appliances I needed. The bed linen was fresh, and the bed was comfortable. The air conditioning was a lifesaver on one of the hotter days, which I greatly appreciated. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and would definitely stay here again in the future.

South AfricaThe lights were very bright with no option for a side lamp, so either bright or very dark in the room. Also the TV wasn't playing dirt channels. They had an option to connect to Netflix only if you have a preexisting account but was unable to login due to it not pairning to wifi.

South AfricaI didn't like the smell of the linen and the towels. Everything was clean but I guess I'm one for floral scents... But everything was on par. I will definitely be back again.
The owner of the place was very warm, friendly and accommodating. He assisted me with all my requests. Beautiful Venue..I stayed here all alone & Safety is a plus.

South AfricaCommunication was poor to non-existent. Received no response when asking questions vie booking.com or cellphone calls. Entry pod did not work, had to wait for garden cleaner to alert the owner that I had been standing outside for more than 10 min, trying to get ins. No toiletries as advertised. Although not advertised, courtesy/complimentary coffee/tea is sort of a standard at guesthouses. Placement of mirror in bathroom away from the tub, makes shaving and grooming akward.
