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 helpful and nice. They tried to help whatever complaints we had. (And we had a lot.)
At first we had multiple issues with cleanliness. The blanket was spotted, the floor was sandy, the toilet seat was visibly scratched, it was hard to tell if it was clean. The bin didn’t have bag, even though we had to throw dirty toilet paper there. When we complained, they fixed these. However we could hardly sleep on most nights since the local kids were shouting and scootering right under the window up until 2-3am(!!!). Since there was no air-con, we had to open the window. In fact, we couldn’t even sleep at closed windows, because it was so loud.

Verified reviewOn the positive side, the staff working in the kitchen were really friendly and helpful, and the location is great — very close to the beach. With some small improvements, this place could be much better.
I stayed at Cozy Surf House and was a bit disappointed by some basic amenities. There were no lockers to store personal belongings, no toilet paper or soap, and no clothes hook or tie in the shower. It was also hard to find the place since there was no visible sign or name on the building.

Verified reviewThe private double room was comfortable. The cleaning lady was nice and there was a washing machine for 40dhms. Good rooftop area.
Other people staying were so noisy after midnight, no staff on sight to tell them to be quiet, the doors bang really loudly and the whole building very echoey. Had one decent night sleep out of four.
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the comfort of the private double room, the rooftop, and our facilities. We’re truly sorry about the noise during your stay. For any issues like this, please note that the manager’s number is clearly displayed in the kitchen area—we’re always available via call or message to assist at any time, especially during the night. Your comfort is very important to us, and we’ll also review how we can improve nighttime quiet hours to make sure all guests have a peaceful stay.

Verified reviewThe hostel itself is nice – good location, cozy common areas, and an overall pleasant atmosphere. It’s a good spot to relax after exploring, and the space is well-kept.
Unfortunately, the experience with the cleaning lady really brought the vibe down. Although the hostel says there’s a shared kitchen, it’s practically off-limits. She sits there most of the time and gets visibly annoyed when guests try to use it. She sighs, makes comments, and clearly acts like you’re disturbing her – it’s super uncomfortable and quite strange. Definitely something the hostel should look into.

Verified reviewThe team is friendly and responsive. They helped to arrange a taxi to the airport on the last day. There was a bit of misunderstanding about the breakfast on the first day, but it was quickly solved.
1. There was no hot water throughout my 3-day stay. 2. The soundproofing is very poor — you can hear everything from neighbors and the street. 3. The curtains don’t block the light properly, and streetlights shine in all night, making it hard to sleep. 4. Only one towel was provided, with no soap or shampoo. The towel smelled of humidity by the second day, which isn’t ideal, especially with no hot water.
Thank you for your feedback — we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Just to clarify a few points: we normally provide one towel per guest, and after use, we recommend hanging it up on the terrace to dry, or you’re always welcome to ask for a fresh one if needed. We’re sorry to hear about the hot water issue — if we had known during your stay, we would have been happy to take care of it right away. Please don’t hesitate to let us know in the moment so we can fix things for you as quickly as possible. As for the soundproofing and curtains, thank you for pointing that out — these are areas we’re currently working on improving to make sure future stays are more comfortable. We’re glad to hear the team was helpful and responsive, and we hope to welcome you back again with an even better experience next time!

Verified reviewLovely rooftop terrace.
Prices for transfers and activities are not consistent. They forgot to pick me up from the airport. I was charged for a surf guide who pointed me where to surf, no real guidance.
Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the vibe and rooftop terrace – we’re really glad you enjoyed those! We’re sorry about the confusion with your airport pickup. The driver had an unexpected issue on the way, and we did offer to send a replacement taxi right away, but we understand you preferred to take one yourself. Just to clarify, the price for the airport transfer isn’t included in the room rate – we simply act as an intermediary to help arrange transportation for a smoother check-in experience. Regarding the surf guide and activity pricing, we truly appreciate your input and will work on improving clarity and consistency. Your feedback helps us do better. Thanks again, and we hope to welcome you back soon!

Verified reviewThe view from the roof and the couch in the upper floor were really beautiful. The owner provided us surf lesson for 30 euro/person, which was great and the teacher taught us how to surf in one day.
We wanted to rent a surf, but the owner said that the shop they cooperate with is closed. My soft drink was stolen from the fridge, my swimming shorts disappeared and then when I contacted the owner of the appartment, whey managed to find the swimming shorts, but since then I was afraid to hang my clothes on the roof (where the clothesline was). The room had a strange smell, and throught the doors you could hear everything, what was happening in the building. It was our worst accomodation during our Morocco trip. The accomodation is quite far from the sea - about 400-500 metres to the beach.
Hi Martin, Thank you for your feedback—we always appreciate hearing from our guests and value the chance to clarify a few things. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the rooftop view and the surf lesson. Our surf instructor works hard to make sure everyone has a great time, even if it’s their first time on a board! Regarding the swimming shorts: when it gets too windy, our cleaning lady kindly takes down clothes from the line just to prevent them from flying away even though it’s not really her responsibility. She stores them safely next to the kitchen. they were there, but just went unnoticed. Once you asked about them, she brought them directly to your room. About the soft drink, please note that the fridge is shared among guests. It’s likely someone mistook it for their own. We’ve never had any reports of items going missing before, and it’s unlikely someone would intentionally take just a 0.3€ drink while leaving everything else. Still, we completely understand how it can be annoying, and we would’ve happily replaced it if you had mentioned it during your stay. When it comes to surfboard rentals, we let you know that our usual partner shop was closed at the time, but also clearly explained that there are over 20 surf shops around Taghazout where you could easily rent gear. While we’re not obligated to provide boards, we do our best to assist guests by recommending trusted shops. Lastly, our location is as shown on Google Maps—around 400 meters from the beach. We’ve never claimed to be beachfront, but most of our guests enjoy the short walk through the village. Thank you again for your review. We always appreciate honest feedback—it helps us improve and continue offering better experiences to our guests. Wishing you safe and happy travels ahead! Warm regards, Cozy surf house team
