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 reviewThe staff was friendly (The gentleman that checked us in and the lady that checked us out). The breakfast was nice, we enjoyed it.
The rooms are too small and the shower was not clean. The noise was too much. We were waken up at dawn by a group of people making extreme noise. Saturday evening we had the same issue. We had to endure it. To get hold of the reception you have to go downstairs. No other means of communication.

Verified reviewThe Scenery like the name says Scenery Guest House. The view of the Maqalika Dam and the Mountains facing the Guest House is so overwhelming; I felt at peace with nature by being there. Oh I spent a new year's eve there with beautiful scenes of the new year celebrations and crickets shouts and lightings on the sky.,It was an exciting show. For nature people, this is the best place to lodge in.
The breakfast menu was prepared in almost the same way on daily basis. A recommendation would be that different methods of cooking be applied; for instance boiled and scrambled eggs to be varied with fried and botched eggs.
Good morning Limpho Thank you for taking your time to leave us a review about your stay at Scenery Guest house, we appreciate your feedback and we are delighted that you had the best Christmas eve with us ad felt at peace with nature. Your comments have been taken to heart. We promise on improving our breakfast Menu and have variety of meals. Kind regards M.Kalane

I am appalled. I made this reservation on behalf of my parents for two nights. I paid for the executive "fancier" suit. I was informed upon their arrival, that they had no parking. They were then moved 3 times from their room. On one night the staff knocked at the door at 2 or 3 am where the staff asked if they had been given the master key. I might add, that this was likely a result of them moving them around. My parents are over 60 and I booked this based on the images. Oh and the sheets did not fit the bed and extra piece of material was added to it. I was further informed that their was mold in the shower. Please be aware of this when booking.
