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.).

United KingdomLynne was a wonderful host, proactive and welcoming and made us feel at home. The Lodge itself is a great setting with just 4 rooms and a personal service, great breakfast freshly cooked and nice rooms with a lovely pool and lounge area. Lynne went out of her way to collect us from Hoedspruit airport and also took us into the town for dinner when we could have had to pay for a taxi instead. Thank you Lynne!

South AfricaWi-Fi and cell signal in the greater area is weak, so definitely link up to the free Wi-Fi, it has a better signal.
Beautiful & restive, what a special treat! The hostess, Lynne and her staff makes one feel exceptionally welcome, from wonderful, tasty home baked biscuits and rusks to individually prepared breakfasts. You can choose to sit out on your veranda and listen to the hyena at nights or watch the wildlife grazing around the property, or have a "braai", or you can relax under the "lapa" with comfy chairs or swim in the pool. If you're lucky you may even see the bushbabies jumping around in the trees. Large comfortable bedrooms and big showers. Truly a wonderful experience and definitely repeatable.

South AfricaNothing, if problems arose Lynne was always quick to help.
Lynne was an excellent host, she welcomed us into her property with open arms. Each room, you can see the attention and detail she put in to make it a unique experience for her guests. Her breakfast, don’t even get me started on this. It was so tasty, well seasoned, and always served fresh each morning. I definitely recommend this place for someone who would like to disconnect from the busy city life and anyway there’s no network. As we entered the Game Reserve, we were welcomed by giraffes, springbok, and kudu.
