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 traveled about 17 days around Morocco with intention to avoid staying in cities and tourist attractions. My flight was from Marrakech so I spent my last night in this serenity with smiling faces by Moustafa and the other staff that I couldn’t catch their name. My room was beautiful, tasteful with lots of space and sitting room. Moustafa is a great cook and his choice of music was my taste. During the day I hiked to the nearby villages on the mountains and hiked back from river with the company of two dogs. I’m happy with my decision and stay there to complete my trip. Also 1 hour drive to airport was easy to return my rental car.

Verified reviewThe hosts, Mustapha and Khadija and Yusuf, are lovely, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. The food is incredible: fresh, interesting, and delicious (though not included in stay price). They are amazing chefs and this really cannot be emphasized enough, happy to discuss their history and approach to cooking. Rooms were large and comfortable. The location is wonderful, as there are nearby hikes with amazing views. The hosts also gave us extra patisseries as gifts.
Not much to dislike. It is helpful to have a French translator app or speak French.

Verified reviewWe arrived late after having car troubles and not feeling that great after suffering some stomach issues. Despite the language barrier (French/English) Mustafa welcomed us with tea and biscuits and suggested and provided a cumin solution for our upset stomachs (which seemed to work). We had a good night's sleep and had a great breakfast the next day. We found the location a little difficult to find but to be fair it was our first day of driving in Morocco. We totally recommend this lovely, welcoming guesthouse.

Verified reviewThe property is beautiful and was a fantastic place for a restful few days. The hosts and owner were very welcoming and gave us recommendations for walks and hikes in the area. The food was some of the best we had in Morocco and was a lovely way to start and end each day. Definite recommending having dinner at the property, each night was something new and truly excellent three course meal. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable. The property and gardens had lots of available seating so we were able to relax and enjoy the views of the valley or relax in the gardens.
The hot water in the shower was a little inconsistent, but with patience we were able to shower just fine. The wifi is a little slow, but we had good cell service so we always had options for data.

Tokyo the dog was such a sweetie too. The dinner was so generous and delicious. Breakfast was also all homemade and tasty. There are easy walking trails nearby that the host will tell you about too.

Verified reviewWonderful location, team and food. Very peaceful, calm atmosphere with large comfortable rooms. Waking up to the sun rising over the Atlas Mountains in the distance was fantastic. The option to have a 3 course home cooked evening meal was wonderful. Fresh local dishes which varied every night for only 150. Maybe a little more variety for breaksfast...cereals, yoghurt and fresh fruits. Thanks for everything. I look forward to coming back.

Verified reviewI loved how caring and warm are the hosts, they treat their guests so lovely and also their cooking skills for sure :) I felt very supported during my stay. The room was HUGE, very comfortable and beautifully decorated, especially I enjoyed interior of the bathroom. A property features amazing garden, I can only imagine how pleasant is to be there in spring. Location is very convenient to reach both Ourika center and hiking spots in the valley, which you can get to with a small local bus costing 10dh.
Wifi was really slow and it was cold (which is ok for Atlas in January)

Verified reviewVery spacious room, huge I would say, filled with light, we had our own terrace. All facilities look nice, plenty of space to chill around from several terraces to a garden with hammocks. Possibility to have breakfast or dinner, beautiful view on the mountains
Room looked slightly unfinished, like several wires hanging from the ceiling and walls, shower gel/shampoo was missing, no hairdryer at the room but I didn't ask for it and still we were in low season

Verified reviewThe most beautiful place in Morocco during our trip. This is a beautiful house with huge rooms and a cozy living room for relaxing and eating. There is a beautiful garden and a two lovely dogs. The staff were so kind and prepared for us dinner and breakfast. The bad weather during our stay stopped us from walking around the village, but we enjoyed the place.
