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...).

PolandGreat location in the middle of the hill, surrounded by jungle and just above a small villas estate. You are completely surrounded by nature. Peace, quiet and ocean view in the distance. Just few minutes drive to the beach. Very clean and well kept, with nice terrace and private parking. Piumal who takes care of the property was extremely nice and helpful. He even prepared a delicious fresh coconut welcome drinks and showed us how to handle some tropical fruits. We got lots of useful tips from him and learned about the people and island. Michelle, the host, was so nice that let us check out very late as our flight was in the evening and so we had a unique opportunity to enjoy this wonderful island a bit longer. She was also kind enough to give as an upgrade to a lovely spacious apartment on the upper floor with huge balcony and amazing view over the bay. We would definitely come back to that place if happen to visit Mahe again in the future. Thank you for everything. We really enjoyed our stay.

Serbia- Do note that the apartment is located on a hilly location. If you want to nullify that, come with a car here. - Slightly weird that there is no electrical socket in the bathroom at all.
- Located on an incredibly scenic spot. Sunsets from the house are beautiful. - Incredibly well-equipped kitchen. You have everything you could think of. - The level of cleanliness is exceptional. Piumal does an awesome work keeping everything clean and tidy to the highest degree. - They keep several tortoises that enjoy when you feed them bananas.

Czech RepublicWe loved absolutely everything about the guesthouse. Super clean, spacious and comfortable rooms. The house has everything you need. There is also a huge terrace with a breathtaking view where we enjoyed most of our mornings and evenings. The owner of the guesthouse Michelle is a very sweet person, she greeted us with presents and goodies and we loved chatting with her. We also met Piumal, who took care of us at the property and was the kindest person on Earth. He helped us with so many different things (car battery, food, medication, cleaning, transportation, etc.). We visited the guesthouse during Christmas season and the house was beautifully decorated with a Christmas tree, lights and presents and it made us feel like at home. We definitely recommend staying here and will be looking forward to visiting the guesthouse again in the future.

BelarusWe liked the location. Ask the owner about the nearest fish store, vegetable market, and beach. We tried different ones, but our nearest were the best. The house owner was very kind and nice. They greeted us with fruits and coconuts. The house plan was very good. There were two big rooms with two toilets. The terrace was very big. They cleaned the house, and it was good that staff were nearby; we could always ask if there were any problems. Also, the owner always checked in to see if everything was okay or if we had any troubles. We didn't have any; we liked everything about our stay here. We strongly recommend this place.

I felt welcomed from the very beginning of my arrival. The place was very clean. There is a washing machine to clean your clothes and the kitchen is equipped with the tools needed to cook a nice meal. I place has many fruit trees you can eat from and adorable turtles to feed bananas. I felt very relaxed. A wonderful place to stay in a paradise. They even got me some salt to cook with.

AustriaMake sure to have a rental car. Michelle can assist with a good recommendation.
Simply everything! Best view for the sunset. It was also very comfortable, that there's a cleaning included every 2nd day (as there's always a lot of sand around after the beaches).

The property has scenic views, is spacious, and is very clean. All amenities including complete sets of kitchenware were present, functional and good quality. The rooms were the perfect temperature with AC. The hosts are also lovely people, extremely welcoming and accommodating.

Israelcould use additional aircon in the living room and a fan on the terrace. Also, you need to bring your own coffee/sugar and all other basic cooking supplies. But for the price we paid there’s absolutely no complaints.
Perfect traditional creole house with all comforts for a family vacation. Amazing terrace and sea view. Anil welcomed us with a plate of fruits and a coconut drink. You have a washing machine and powder for your own use. Michelle the owner came the next morning and provided great advice on beaches and more. Can wash your legs outside and can easily get to various beaches. We mostly liked Anse Louis, Anse Solleil, Anse Rotal, Takamaka beach and port Laundy north beach of the Ephilia hotel. Some nice takeaways and restaurants nearby. You do need a car though. Best value for money in Mahe! You won’t be disappointed.

AustriaMost of all I like to mention Michelle, she send me lots of very useful information, even before I arrived. She really cares for her guests and makes sure all is well at all times. Also Anil is such a kind and helpful person, always goes the extra mile with a smile. All in all the guesthouse is a perfect place if you seek a great, peaceful and stress-free holiday. You can see the sea and the sunset from your kitchen or terrace, really beautiful. I can highly recommend Jane's Senerity Guesthouse and I myself like to come back because it's home far away from home....

GermanySuper 👍
We had a wonderful time at Janeds Guesthouse. The owner Michelle greeted us heartily and she made sure, we feel comfortable the whole time. The coworker Anyl was always very helpful and friendly. He kept the house clean and he regularly brought fresh local fruits. The house is very beautiful and roomy. Especially the balcony with the view on the jungle, shore and the ocean was a always a big joy! The balcony has alot of space too. The location of the guesthouse is perfect too, since it’s very close to the ocean and we only needed around 10 Minutes by car to get to the nearby beaches (the Maia Beach is a dream). We invited local friends to our house for dinner and we always had a great, fun time. We enjoyed our vacation at the guesthouse alot and we’re planning to stay there again!
