Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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 AfricaWe were a little cold, the shutter window didn’t close properly and the room was tiled. It felt a bit cold with the breeze. But all was fine.
We stayed in a little cottage/room this time. It has a cute garden area with lush greens around us. We had our own entrance that was not part of the house.

South AfricaWe didn’t really like the carpet, it was a bit dirty. Overall the place was clean but could’ve been a bit more cleaner.
We liked the design, the space, the privacy within the house, we liked the antique furniture and decor with a touch of modern and rich in old Afrikaans history. The space is relaxing and calm. The staff is friendly. The bed was comfortable with clean sheets.

GhanaThere was shortage or water in Brooklyn which affected the facility. I will recommend that as the facility have solar panels to prevent load shedding from affecting them, they should also have a way of powering water to prevent such shortages in future

LesothoI was overcharged/ made to pay someone else bill by mistake by R119. I brought this to the attention of the person helping at the time. He said I will be refunded. Following morning while checking out, I was asked to leave my banking details as I could only be refunded via Internet transfer. I still haven't received the refund.

BotswanaThey do not allow cannabis smoking in the premises which is silly because cannabis is legal in SA. To have a smoke you have to go outside the premises. You are not even allowed to find a secluded spot (there are many of them on the premises) to have a smoke. They also did not inform me in advance that the WiFi was going to be down on the day i checked in. However, it was back up the next day
A very peaceful and serene place with a nice staff and value-for-money amenities. A very unique experience. The reception ladies are very nice and the location is very top-notch
