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 reviewA clean room that was good for a day in advance of flight home. Early check-in was welcome. Thankfully we didn't have to stay overnight.
Room fittings were tired with plugs hanging off of wall and broken window latches. Noisy as a main road ran directly in front of building.
All room fittings are well done and in good condition and not hanging off the walls.. and also all the window latches are working perfectly well.. you could have asked for assistance from staff if you didnt know how to open or close the windows. Best regards Contento retreat

Verified reviewThe room looked ok. Only some ants. Wifi was a bit slow. Mattress was firm. Clean. Ac was good. Plumbing flushed. Free water.
I really should let them have it. They put me right above the lobby. Their workers sleep there on the couch. So noisy. On speakerphone alot. Got calls in the middle of the night. No tv reception, hot water, shuttle or breakfast. Unbelievable car and scooter noise 247/7! Not helped by 4 of windows being incapable of closing or warped. No soap. Elevator dinged loudly. No bulbs in half the lights. Safe didn't work. Told them about it. No one fixed it. Outlet hanging from socket. Shades a little thin. Sea plane noise. And to top it off at 1pm on final night, they started doing construction. Seems like an afterthought to the owners. Not really run professionally.
The rooms are chosen by the guests when they book the rooms…there is tv in the room and hot water in the bathroom and you can get hot water on request..you can close all the windows you could have asked for help from staff if you couldnt close the windows..all the bathrooms have body shower shampoo.. and the safes work just fine..shuttle and breakfast is provided upon request from guests..the construction work was not from the hotel and had nothing to do with the owners or the hotel..all the bulbs are present all the lights work perfectly well.. we appreciate bringing the noise of the staff to our attention.. staff had been told about it..you could have asked the staff to keep it quite… when you close the windows theres no noise from sea planes or from the main road.. you should have closed them..no outlet is hanging from the socket.. the rooms and the toilets and lights are checked every day by the supervisors.. I guess the guest is unhappy we didn’t offer free breakfast and also we didn’t give a discount on the green tax or environment tax.. like we explained many times clearly this is government tax we cant reduce it.. since that would be a criminal offense.. Best regards Contento

Verified reviewStaffs are very helpful
Shower gel & shampoo are not provided. Toilet cover is falling over as only one screw holding it? And also, toilet seat is very dirty. Bedsheet has small stains. Cup, spoon and water kettle provided but no tea and coffee. And most importantly, the water is rusty. I had to brush my teeth and washed myself with drinking water 😟 I believe no one used the room or let the water run at least.
Thanks for the feedback…we have personally cleaned all the rooms and toilets and fixed the toilet covers too.. and also fixed the rusty water too.. we have asked staff to provide all guests with shampoo and shower gel..please next time ask the staff for coffee and tea snd shower gel and shampoo too
