Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The host mostly ignored us. Very little welcome and didn’t even respond when we said goodbye. Quite difficult to find. We had to look at pictures of the exterior to find it as there is no sign.
Well located, a short walk from the fort. Comfortable and Clean!

Breakfast was really really poor. Sort of British tourist breakfast but in poor way. Apart from that great place
Very spacious room, beds very comfy, curtains you can use to block efficiently the sun, we slept very well. Room is nicely decorated. Guest house is just 5’ from Nizwa fort, fantastic place. Service is nice and efficient

Location - An information to park on the big free parking beforehand would immense help while approaching the appartment. Service - the Bangladeshi service was appropriate although not speaking English in a way I would expect Breakfast - Maybe not putting all dishes per person before in silver foil where bread & egg (which both are delocious) get cold. make it fresh, people have time
Location -was very good. Service - ok, Room - large and cosy. Very good and clean Breakfast - really good. Garden - a nice place to relax after a lot of foot walk or just enjoy some quite moment Internet - working, but not in the garden which is fine to me

The internet was not always stable and strong. This was not a problem for us but it would not be suitable for work.
The house has several rooms which are rented out. The room is very spacious in terms of size. As there were three of us travelling, we were given a single bed in addition to the double bed. If you are travelling with friends, you should be aware that the bathroom is only separated by a glass door and a curtain. There is also a small garden and a shared balcony. We were also offered the opportunity to use the pool from another location. We didn't take advantage of this, but found the offer very generous. We were very happy about the air conditioning. The location is great as it is a 5 minute walk over the large car park to the souq, food options and the fort. You can also park your car there free of charge or if the one parking sport is used at the large car park (1 Min walking).

I wouldn’t recommend this property. It is in a good location for Central Nizwa, however it’s hard to find, the shower was broken & no water pressure, no fridge, room is a bed & weird glass bathroom with shower curtain for privacy & poor breakfast. All done very cheaply to rip tourists off due location. And cash only.
Good central location
