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 reviewMr Robin has gone to great lengths to make the property feel like home, and it does. Beautifully clean and in a lovely setting. There is a great pool and ample parking for a hire car, which is recommended. My room, the King room was in such a nice position for privacy and the balcony was perfect for me. Highly recommended and Mr Robin is such a nice person and excellent host. Thank you for everything and for allowing me to share your beautiful property.
As an Englishman, a kettle in the room would have been nice but a kette is available in the communal kitchen along with 3 different types of oven and 3 gas hobs so not a big problem.
Hello Jeb. Thks a lot for this review We did enjoy our conversations / bbq with you. We meet soon. -on your next stay Best regards Robin

Verified reviewIf you are looking for a quiet spot, this is it. All you hear are beautiful birds, no traffic. Keep in mind having a car here is a must (or taxis), to get to stores and restaurants. Room was comfortable, AC worked great. The kitchen was large and available if we wanted to use it.Enough outlets for charging including bedside. Breakfast was OK. The bread and pastries are amazing, but the cheese and ham portion was a little on the light side. Good secure units with good parking. Best thing about it is Robin the host. Super friendly, helpful, and responsive!
As mentioned, ham and cheese portions a little small at breakfast. Stepping into the shower is a high step, so you need to be careful.
Hello Balks We thank you for your review and for taking time to write it We are very happy to learn that you enjoyed your stay with us Actually regarding ham/ cheese , same is pre plated in individual portions and you could Serve yourself as many portions as you would have wished .We do not limit our guest to a single serve Wish you a the best.

Verified reviewThe host was very accommodating, the property is in a quiet area, you can rent a car at the property at a very reasonable rate. I enjoyed my stay there.
The room should have some mosquito nets or something similar. Besides that there's nothing major to complain about.
