How guest reviews work
Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewWe stayed in a large, comfortable apartment. Eslam was very kind. Since our flight was late, they picked us up in a taxi and then were waiting for a boat to take us to the hotel. She recommended a place to have breakfast and explained transportation options... It's a good option if you like to blend in with the surroundings.

Verified reviewI was lucky enough to get the whole floor for ourselves. So everything in the common area was used as part of our home. There’s a shared washing machine too so we washed our clothes there after a few days of traveling. The boat transfer costs 10EGP per trip for foreigners and the boatmen are quite honest. They do provide change instead of keeping it as tips in most of the country
The room was a little dirty on the linen and floor. The wardrobe was full of other stuff which we couldn’t use to hang our clothes. Please also put up your guest house name as we weren’t able to know that we have arrived at the correct place for the first time.

Verified reviewThe property is on the Island in Aswan, just a 3 minute walk from the public ferry. The guesthouse is clean in every aspect. Islam the Manager is definitely doing a great job. He is taking care of his guests, has a positive attitude which makes you feel good which you miss in Egypt. We booked one tour and one transfer from him which after checking with other travelers had a fair price. Dear Islam thank you again for the lovely evening on the boat, the tour and good to know that not all people in Egypt even they are in the tourism business do not see travelers as walking dollars 🙏🏻 Not to forget if you have a big luggage and do not want to carry the 3 minute walk, help is always there.
Nothing everything was perfect.

Verified reviewgreat place for stay. Owner was great.
I didn’t probably read the information clearly, because i didn’t know that one room is occupied by another people and the place is “shared”. It was ok and nothing wrong, but just count with it.

Verified reviewThe hotel boasts a very comfortable bed and is exceptionally clean, situated in the heart of a unique village. There's a good restaurant nearby. Most importantly, the owners are incredibly friendly and helpful. They even assisted in booking a trip to Abu Simbel temple at very reasonable prices. I'll definitely return to stay here again.

Verified reviewThe host - Eslam - was a gem of a guy! made sure every request was met and took care of us like Royalty. Also helped us in booking trips nearby at decent rates. The kitchen at the property also helped!
Nothing per se - probably not the best fit if you want to stay in Aswan city and not Elephantine island. Because you'' have to take a ferry each time you get out. But we loved the experience! :)

Verified reviewVery near to port and quiet place. Mahmoud welcomed us and we spent a night there. Place is chill and quiet. There is a common kitchen and sitting/ possible working space. Very good wifi. Clean room and bathroom. Recommmended!
There is a nice balcony but unfortunately no view. Shower water can come inside of the room if there is no mop at the door (but this is quite common in egypt) so there is really nothing unpleasant.
