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):
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.
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.).

South AfricaSwimming or walking beaches aren't within walking distance - need to drive to have a swim or walk on the beach. This also applies for supermarket / restaurants. More kitchen utensils would have been helpful, i.e. glass bowl to use in the microwave.
Great location if you have a rental vehicle or your own transport. Clean and spacious apartment. Sunsets from the rooftop is amazing!

RussiaHowever, the TV didn’t work properly, as the picture cutting. The pool and the surrounding area were dirty and not usable. It’s not a good place for walking. In the evening, we found only one open restaurant on Google Maps near the apartment, but when we arrived, we saw a lot of clothes drying on lines next to the tables, so we left for Le Morne instead.
Nice, modern, and clean apartment. The host sent full instructions and the Google Maps address the day before our arrival. If you have a car, this is a great and affordable place to visit Le Morne Beach and Le Morne Mountain.

MauritiusThere is a TV in the room but unfortunately only mauritius channels. Because I don't speak Urdu/Tamil etc I couldn't watched anything. No English channel and only one french with news 24 But there is good wifi so it's good to have your own device with you
Very very nice and comfortable stay Good location, quiet neighbourhood no loud music or heavy traffic nearby. Free secure carpark, lots of 🌴 around and pool on the roof, our favourite spot! We loved it!!! Beautiful view from the balcony. The room is also very comfy, bed are nicely done. Clean and very soft beddings. The little kitchenette has a hob and microwave, and a big fridge freezer. Everything is very clean, this is the most important for us

South AfricaGoogle maps directions were confusing - just be aware.
The apartment was all we needed for our stay. We were very grateful for the airconditioner as it was very hot. The balcony had an excellent view of Le Morne mountain. It was a 10 minute drive to the beach where we could snorkel and swim. We were able to cook our own meals. Our laundry was washed for an extra fee which was very convenient. Communication by the host was excellent and we were able to check in easily. Overall we loved our stay and were sad to leave.

South AfricaWe had trouble locating the apartment with the GPS (it's misleading) and directions, but came right eventually. The hosts were very friendly, professional and gracious, The apartment , which is located on the 1st floor, was comfortable and very clean and the hosts provided an extra bed as we were 2 friends traveling together. We had someone come in to clean when we left and our stuff was still safe. The location was perfect as it was in the middle of all the attractions we wanted to visit and the public beach is a very close-by drive. Only (very small) disturbance we had was the other guests below us making a noise until about 2am. But kudos for our hosts - (even though we did not complain at that time as it was late), they immediately apologized and addressed it. The view from the roof was to die for and we enjoyed the small pool/ jacuzzi. THANK YOU VERY MUCH to Priscilla and partner - our hosts - for such a wonderful stay, we really enjoyed it. We will definitely come again.

South AfricaWe couldn't get into the lot. It was the neighbors to this lot who gave us the pin code to the main gate after trying to call the host and not being answered multiple times. When we met the host she was surprised to have us there and didn't have a system to even see what room was allocated to us. So she just gave us the first open room. After that interaction we did not see her again for the next 3 days we were there and couldn't get a hold of her, even when we left the property.
It was everything you needed for a 3 day stay. It was clean and the aircon was very good for the summer heat. It was a bit far from everything by foot. We walked 20-30 minutes to the grocery store and the beach and there was no clear system to how the bus works that was about 5 minutes from the apartment.

RomaniaWe arrived during cyclone Belal and had to stay inside for most of the visit here. We decided to walk around the streets at some point and we were attacked and mugged 200m from the house. This might be due to the lack of tourists in the area because of the cyclone, but not a good experience. However, the host was helpful in providing information to us and helping with meal accommodations and transport.
Very spacious room, well equipped and clean. Nice and relaxing terrace, though it could use some furniture here. Very friendly host, but we only messaged via WhatsApp, did not meet in person.

United KingdomNot a negative as such, but as mentioned above, location albeit great does ideally warrant having a car (or if you don’t mind getting lots of taxis that could work too) as it is slightly tricky to get around else, and the roads are not great to walk on. Also on this note - there is no petrol station nearby so fill up in advance!! Also, quite a bit of debris in the pool. But acknowledge it is difficult to avoid this on a rooftop.
Lovely little apartment with great views of Le Morne Brabant. Hosts are super friendly and have great communication with the guests. We enjoyed sitting out on our little balcony, and the pool is a nice touch although to be honest we did not really use it as spent the sunny days on the gorgeous Le Morne beach which is our favourite on the island. Lots of decent restaurants just a short drive away and a fab coffee place for a morning fix. Would recommend having a hire car if able, as it would be tricky to get around otherwise. Overall it is very good value for money!

GermanyUpon our arrival, the shower was dirty and full of ants - the dirt probably came from a bird that got in through the open window or something, the hosts told us it had never happened before. We messaged the hosts and they apologized and sent the maid over even though it was already fairly late in the evening. The ants were there throughout the stay, sometimes less sometimes more, however there was cleaning every day and the ants were taken care of daily (and then came back unfortunately, but it is hard to get rid of them once and for all I guess). Overall I have to say that for the same money, we got other apartments in Mauritius that were a bit nicer, though I felt as if La Gaulette/ Le Morne area is a bit pricier than other places in general.
Check in was super easy, hosts are very friendly and respond to messages really quickly, even late in the evening. Balcony is very nice and the apartment is quite spacious. Daily cleaning was very nice. Well equipped kitchen and the rooftop is great although unfortunately there's no wifi up there. Location is good, although quite at the end of the village, but that's no problem if you have a car, take the bus or are happy to walk for about 20-30 minutes. Room is as shown in the pictures, although it could do with a little more intererior decoration.
