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 KingdomThe sellers of the souk market get to be a bit too much, but you just need to understand they are trying to make a living
This place is amazing. The property, the location, and the staff were all fabulous. The cafe located just below the property is a must. The food , staff, and view are exceptional 👌 We had 2 nights here and would have been happy staying more nights. We will definitely be visiting again 😊

We loved this place!! The naturalistic style of the room, the hospitality of the staff team and the amazing location in such a wonderful area! We had a layover in Dubai and decided to stay 3 days. I was not really looking forward to the glitz, glam and ”Disney world” that Dubai is famous for, so I my heart skipped a beat when I found this place! The location right by the creak, in old town, in the souk. It feels genuine and people are so nice. It took us 20-40 minutes via taxi to visit the downtown, palm and marina - to take pictures and then return home. The restaurant on the dockside is also your breakfast restaurant and they serve breakfast all day so no rush hour buffet! You can choose from an amazing menu and we had the best eggs Benedict every morning. We arrived in the afternoon an since our flight back three days later was leaving really early and we were to miss brakfast our last day, they offered us a full meal on the afternoon we arrived instead. We also got a free take away coffee the morning when we had a tour at 9, an then we had our breakfast when returning around 11 - incredibly generous and kind. We got some great travel tips from the staff team who also met us at the taxi when arrived and helped us to the taxi when we left (since the hotel is in the souk and the taxi can’t drive all the way to the door). We warmly recommend this place to anyone visiting Dubai and we will definitely choose Mazmi Casa if ever in Dubai again.

SingaporeGreat charming place in the old Dubai, hidden away from the main streets, also a stroll away from the old souk. If you are looking for a boutique hotel with character, comfort and great amenities, you can stop your search right here. Breakfast was offered at the cafe and was flavourful with a great choice of items.

United KingdomMazmi Casa. We have just returned from a fabulous few days in Dubai staying at Mazmi Casa. What a great choice we made. The location on the creek is lovely. The staff were very friendly and helpful, we dealt with Alveen, he was great!!. The room itself was very spacious and overlooked the souk below and the creek to the side. We loved listening to the everyday life going on below, the chatter from the souk and the café, the boats on the creek, and the calls to prayer. It was everything we had hoped to experience. The room was very clean. The café was great with lovely breakfasts and we called back in the evening too sometimes for a hot chocolate and cake. Would definitely recommend it for a stay in the old part of Dubai. Thank you for a fabulous stay.

PhilippinesOur stay were unforgettable because of Ate Grace, Kuya Arnel and Kuya Alvin who is really friendly, accomodating and guided us during our trip. They also make a delicious breakfast and coffee and ensure that we are full before we start our activities. The room is well clean and the place is not far from metro station. It is really a good location where you can enjoy walking around the creek and also near to Al Seef. Don't hesitate to book this place. I highly recommend!👍

Everything was superb, from being met by Alvin and guided to the Casa,all the information and help he gave us, the room and its great views. Excellent airconditioning and very comfortable bed. The staff of the Mazmi Casa cafe were also very welcôming and friendly, food was good and we loved being able to sit at the cafe overlooking the water watching the abras.Not to mention the traders in the souk providing some entertainment. The historical area itself was also very easy and interesting to walk round .

United Arab EmiratesIt's a heritage building so no sound proofing. They provide ear plugs so use that if the sounds of the creek are too much to sleep.
This is my third stay at Mazmi Casa since they opened a few years ago, and I loved it as much as I did before. I always book the middle room and find it very comfortable with calming design and decor. It's a home away from home and the bed is supremely comfortable. Alveen who takes care of the B&B is always so kind and thoughtful and the team at Mazmi Cafe are lovely too. PS: don't forget to order a slice of the banana nuttela cake at the cafe downstairs!

IrelandThere was nothing we didn't like. Our stay exceeded our expectations
The location was so lovely right on the creek and in the old town with the souk on our doorstep. A gorgeous breakfast was served on the terrace looking at the abras sailing by, the room was really nice. But the best part of the stay was the hosts, Alveen, Grace and the staff were so helpful, friendly and professional. They couldn't do enough for us and made us feel so welcomed. We highly recommend Mazmi Casa
