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...).

United StatesThe only thing about the room that I didn't like was that the room felt a damp. The shower also didn't work very well.
The room was large and spacious. I loved the private out door sitting space. Breakfast was very good and came with a lot of options. Dinner was confusing to me, I felt like the kitchen closed too early.

KenyaOverall cleanliness of the room, the Aircon emitted a foul smell and the curtains were dusty.
The breakfast was lovely, was skeptical about it being vegetarian but it was surprisingly good. The mattress is comfy and the pool is lovely.

United Arab Emirates- The room had a very veeeery strong smell of tabaco and it was impregnated in the bed sheets too. I arrived at night so I turned the AC on to be able to sleep with that smell… not ideal. - The toilet was not super clean either with spots around the toilet ball and the floor around the shower still wet. Overall the place didn’t give me the impression of being very hygienic. - Other guests arrived to the room next door who I was sharing the terrace with in the middle of the night and the person showing them around was very noisy when He showed the terrace and turned all the light on! (thing that woke me up…)
The structure of the place is beautiful! I love the ecological measures and that they just serve amazing local and western vegetarian food. The staff are all super nice. Specially the girls in the restaurant.

BelgiumThe bungalow huts are not as nice as the main building. They have a shabby look to them inside and you just feel a little underwhelmed. The balcony is shared which means you will not really use it to chill. The hotel menu is veggie and a little limited. Breakfast is also a little limited but the omelettes are good ! There isn’t a private beach at Ziwa, meaning that you will be hustled by locals as soon as you step down to the beach to try and go for a swim.
Right on the beach. The rooms in the new building (rooms in block 8) are comfortable and the sea view balcony (from rooms 820 upwards) is great. The breakfast area is nice and the pool is rather ok.
