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 reviewI like the people who manned the property . Chef seemed to know what he was preparing. Manager was a beautiful big hearted gentleman who would definitely be an asset to the hotel.
Google didn't help much finding our way to the property . Since the location is off the main roads, a few more eye catching sgnboards giving directions would have been very useful.

Verified reviewGreat breakfast, lovely helpful staff. Went for an unforgettable walk to the lake with one of the staff members, this was the highlight.
The property is showing much signs of wear and tear, both inside the rooms and the outside decking area. The smaller pool was stagnant when we arrived which didn't make us want to get in. It feels rundown. The internet was very patchy. No hot water for that nice outdoor bath tub I would've liked to have used.

Verified reviewReally welcoming staff, the bed was very comfy. Road to get there is fine in a car but is a rough road. Great location for a walk in the morning near the lake where you can see birds and monkeys. We had dinner and breakfast there and both felt very special and the staff couldn’t do enough. Room had great air-con, nice toilet, sooooo comfy beds and sheets with a good wardrobe. With the air-con and fan was nice and cool. The bathroom was nice and tidy with a modern shower and the body lotion also smells amazing!! No issues with bugs or insects which is rare, no fridge but wasn’t an issue from us. We stayed in one of the cottages / external room and it felt very independent and relaxing
Pool water was clean but had alot of dead mosquitoes ontop, could have done with clearing
Thank you for your valuable review When the lights on in side the pool some time various flying insect coming to these lights. Actually all of them are not mosquitos. This is normal, because we are located totally surrounding by lakes jungles etc However thank you to bring attention of this Mini fridges will be introduced very soon Thank you again for your valuable review sir

Verified reviewVery sweet staff. We needed a shift in rooms and they were happy to help us. Breakfast was fine. Delicious food from the restaurant.
The location was far away from the main road. Our first room was filled with bugs and lizards and the sink and air condition were dysfunctional. The next one better (but still with a dysfunctional sink).
