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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomMy room did not have a window so was quite stuffy, but fine for one night.
Nice garden to chill out in, with hammocks, The owner didn't really try to interact with guests, perhaps because of the language barrier.

Fafo was very communicative. Fafo was great cook and provided a hearty meal after a hard day. The common area outside was really special. Fafo's guesthouse is also located at a great spot on the classic hiking trail. We were welcomed as family and would love to visit again.

South AfricaNot the property's fault, but I was the only guest when I stayed so I missed the social element. Also, it is a bit out of town, but that makes it a great starting point for the day two hike to Adishi!
Lovely owner, she doesn't speak much English but will go out of her way to help. She is also a great cook! The bed was comfortable with plenty of warm blankets.

Georgia80 laris which wasn’t advertised on booking.
As of September 22nd, this guest house was 80 laris which included a bed, dinner, and breakfast. Just a heads up because going in reason other reviews I thought it would only be 60 laris. The shower is nice and hot and one of the only places where the shower isn’t connected to the toilet without a door which was nice. The dinner was plentiful and you got a lot of food. The kids are fun to play with and we enjoyed a night of card games with the children. I would recommend this place for a first night on the trail.

NorwayOn this first day of the Ushguli hike I decided to do a detour and hike up a 3350 m mountain on the way. It was a fantastic, but we miscalculated the time so me and the other two hikers I met arrived back in the valley at 21:00 when it was already dark. In these conditions it was impossible to walk the remaining 5 km to Zhabeshi. I called this accomodation and asked if they could fix a taxi for me and the two other hikers. As they didn't speak English very well they asked someone at the hostel to talk to me on the phone. They fixed everything for us in a lovely way. First they called a guesthouse close to where we camr doen to the valley, and this host drove me to Zhabeshi and the two others toMestia for 50 Lari each. When I arrived I got a very warm welcome and dinner from heaven - many choices and everything very well made. I really recommend this place from all my heart - the hosts are helpful and kind, the food is fantastic and the rooms are also comfy. So if you have a problem just ask the locals- they really help you with almost anything.
