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.).

Some things I didn't like, but were bearable (something to take note of) - The showerhead was tilted to the side and I couldn't adjust it - but I could live with that, hence I did not report it -(I would like to believe it would have been sorted - if I had reported it) - The gym has a huge window, and during my session, some gentlemen kept moving up and down (which I had no issue with because I figured that is how they get to their rooms), the problem was when one of them came in and asked to watch. I genuinely found that uncomfortable. I only used it that one time - so take note of that as well - Also, I am aware of the room I booked, but prior to my arrival, I requested that we get a room with two separate single beds and the lady I spoke to promised it would be done, but upon my arrival, they told me they could not do that because that is not what I booked for...fortunately my colleague was another female so I could live with that. Things to majorly improve on: - The room could use some maintenance. Some floor tiles were broken, and the shower didn't have a soap holder. The small window by the door does not close - Thank you for the free breakfast - extremely grateful - but the coffee! Bad is an understatement - Certain rooms don't have coffee/tea-making facilities, and ours was one of those rooms, so we had to go outside to the kitchen to make coffee/tea, which was an inconvenience, especially in a cold winter. - Could use a locked storage or some locker space for our bags
For the event I was attending at Gallagher Convention Centre, the place is perfectly located, and is closer to Boulders Mall and other shopping centres. I also liked the fact that they provided free breakfast Although small and still in the making, I liked the gym space; they had enough yoga mats and a few weights (also benches), but they don't have any cardio equipment and heavy weightlifting yet - the guy said they were still basically putting the gym together. I had a pleasant experience with the staff members (especially the day receptionist - I forgot her name) and the chef with the glasses We were booked in room 28. At first, we were worried because the room doesn't get any sunlight, but the room was warm enough, in addition to the electric blanket (which my colleague loved), they gave us a heater, so we were warm, and the shower had hot water. Loved the code key-thingy! TIP: Please read all the reviews first before booking!!

We were told breakfast is from 7 to 9 if not 10 but by the time we went to the kitchen at 8:30, there was no food enough yo cater for the two couples. What dispsapointed me most was when the reception lady says she prepared little food to save. Why are they offering breakfast if they can't cater for such. Rather increase the price to accommodate breakfast than to surprise us when we are supposed to dine.
Venue was easy to access, security inside the rooms as well as the price for overnight accommodation was reasonable.

If you ware looking for luxury then you need to pay more, it is very good value for money. Noisy neighbours but they stopped at 10:30pm which was very reasonable.
Well situated for those working at Gallagher estate. Friendly staff, nice to get breakfast and very well priced.
