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 AfricaThe Pecan Tree Guesthouse was a home away from home. Both Pamela and Maria ensured we felt comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast was exceptional every morning. We will definitely be back. Thank you again Pamela and Maria for everything. We loved our stay with you

United KingdomNothing. We love it there. So many places to stay in Joberg but this only has a few rooms so is personal and private. Would appreciate a choice of fresh fruit at breakfast rather than just apples and some pods for the nespresso machine to save having to go out and buy some. That’s all
The location, the peacefulness, Maria and Pamela running it. Nothing was too much trouble, exceptionally well kitted out luxurious clean bedrooms and bathrooms and freshly cooked breakfast to order every morning. Loved our time sunbathing and swimming in the pool. Loved the private electric gated entrance with key fob and private parking. We can’t wait to return next year (will be our third visit) thank you for a fabulous stay.

South AfricaWe liked it all.
Pecan Tree Guesthouse is in a very quiet, secure area. The location for us was perfect as we needed to be at St Stithians Aquatic Centre each day (for 4days). The room was exceptionally clean and very comfortable and the hosts were very friendly , supportive and helpful. This is certainly great value for your money. Breakfast was delicious especially the omelette prepared by Maria. We will certainly be back and we would not hesitate to recommend it to friends. Good provision has been made for power during the regular load shedding time slots.

GermanyI cannot think of anything negative about this guesthouse.
This guest house is an a park-like area in Sandton, Johannesburg. This is a very safe area, you can walk around safely but also get to any destination within a short while taking Ubers. The area around the guesthouse is kept meticulously clean, it is beautiful With us, lawns, bushes, trees, and flowers and an oasis in the urban jungle that Johannesburg can be. Incredibly large and tasty breakfasts! Comfortable double bed, large, comfy arm chair, freshly renovated, modern bathroom, desk, television, refrigerator, microwave, and everything you need for coffee and tea. There is an outside sitting area that was pleasant in the evening For a glass of wine and a chat with the neighbors. There is a pool and I used it twice and it was refreshing. Pamela at the reception is an agel and patiently answered all of my 100 questions gracefully.  I will come back to this guest house anytime I am in Johannesburg (possibly next year looking again for a motorcycle)!

Zimbabwewell, the complimentary towels were removed from my room within 3 days (my stay was for 5 days). i later found out that there was a mix up when our host changed duties/shifts with the new host. but this was really a small inconvenience in the grand scheme of the overall stay.
breakfast was superb. a choice of various serials, teas, juice and yoghurt. then the main breakfast was a full continental

South AfricaWe received a very warm welcome from Pamela. Who then showed us to our suite. Which was immaculately clean. I must say it's better than the pictures show. I loved that they had contingencies for power outages and the location is perfect, easily accessible if you're without a vehicle and dependant on Ubers and such. They had a Beautiful and quiet garden with a pool. My family and I had a great stay, so much so that I wish they had franchises all over SA. I Even looked. It was an experience for my young sister whos first time it was leaving the province. The breakfast was also an added delight with various options made to order each morning.. Pamela was a Lovely Host and the Property is most definitely value for money. It felt like we were at a retreat.
